It's Nice To Meet You
Welcome!
With over 34 years’ experience in travel, I have built a reputation for the personalised, caring service that makes every holiday unique. I’m proud to say this commitment is what my clients know me for – I take the time to get to know you, understand your dreams, and tailor every detail to suit your wishes.
Travel has shaped both my life and my career. I’ve lived overseas for a number of years, immersing myself in different cultures and perspectives.
My varied background includes working in tour operations, managing a high street travel agency, and holding several specialist roles within the industry. This rich experience means I offer expert guidance and a truly flexible, knowledgeable approach.
Based in Anlaby, East Yorkshire, I share life’s adventures with my son and our energetic cockapoo, Lottie. As a cruise specialist, I love matching clients to their perfect ship and itinerary – but my expertise goes beyond cruising.
I create and arrange unforgettable holidays worldwide, from family breaks and exotic tours to relaxing escapes and city stays.
Whatever your travel aspirations, I am here to guide you at every stage: with warmth, insight, and personal attention, from our very first chat until you return home.
Let’s create something special for your next journey.
