Hi,
I’m Clare, your local Travel Counsellor.
I'm here to help you find the best holiday or trip to exactly suit your needs. I am passionate about service and ensuring that every little detail is covered and that is why I decided to become a Travel Counsellor.
ABOUT ME
I joined Travel Counsellors to be able to provide independent, honest advise and to provide the highest level of customer service. As I am able to work from home, I have the flexibility to work when my clients need me, even if this is outside of conventional office hours.
I have been in the Travel industry for 15 years and due to the fact that I have been lucky enough to have travelled extensively, I have first-hand experience of many destinations and can advise on any type of travel, be it a white winter skiing in the alpes or Lapland for all the family, a Shopping trip to New York or maybe Route 66 with a hot air balloon flight over the arizonaial dessert, Which I have to say is another of my favourite trips, a special once in a lifetime trip to Disneyworld, a honeymoon to Mauritius, or tailor made round-the-world itineraries. - I do it all!
My specialist areas are bespoke holidays, honeymoons, weddings abroad, Cruises and city breaks, but as I’ve been in the travel industry for many years then I can help with any travel enquiry that you may have, even if it’s somewhat unconventional like Kathmandu, Which I have had in the past and my clients had a fantastic trip.
My passion is weddings abroad and honeymoons…….
MY PERSONAL WEDDING AND HONEYMOON SERVICE
Arranging your special day on a stunning Caribbean Beach, or perhaps an intimate church service in Romantic Cyprus? Organising a wedding at sea onboard a fabulous cruise ship, or perhaps helping you to tie the knot in Vegas’ Little White Chapel? Does an Italian Lake Wedding appeal, or perhaps your own Italian House with Pool to accommodate all your friends and family?
I can guide you through every idea, every legality and every little detail, right down to arranging the bouquet!
I can create a unique and memorable experience tailor-made especially to suit your honeymoon needs. Perhaps relaxing on a isolated Island? Combining America’s West Coast with Vegas, Mexico or Hawaii. Oman can offer an authentic Arabian experience and can be combined with an idyllic Indian Ocean destination to create the perfect multi centre holiday. Visit the famous Raffles Hotel in Singapore, and again, perhaps travel on to experience the tranquility of Bali. Ice-skating and basket ball games in New York? Action packed, or relaxed and laid back. Whatever you are dreaming of, I’m certain I can help.
I can totally take the stress out of arranging your special day or your special trip.
Your wedding and your honeymoon should be tailored to you, and nothing less than perfect.
When using my personal service, I can suggest, guide and advise, and find a dream wedding or honeymoon, within your budget, and all completely 100% financially protected for even more peace of mind.
BECAUSE GETTING MARRIED SHOULD BE ONE OF THE MOST MEMORABLE EXPERIENCES OF YOUR LIFE,
Let me help you to make your dreams come true.
HOW ELSE CAN I HELP?
I can help you arrange any part of your travel arrangements including visitor visas, travel insurance, VIP lounge passes, theme park tickets, car parking and car hire. I can also arrange those special little extras such as fruit and flowers, champagne and where possible will contact hotels directly on your behalf with any special room requests you may have.
My business is based purely on providing my customers with the ultimate customer service experience that you deserve, complete with exceptional after-booking care and service. I will see your holiday right through from the booking stage until you return home - a truly personal service.
And don’t forget any holiday that is booked with me is fully protected by our Financial Trust unlike many internet sites. I love being able to help with your travel arrangements, it gives me huge pleasure.
So if you are looking to book a package or tailor-made holiday, wedding abroad, honeymoon, cruise, flight ,short break, business travel then why not give me a call today with your requirements and sample my service first hand.
I very much look forward to being able help you with your next trip. Whatever your travel plans are, give me a call or email me and I will be more than happy to assist.
Thank you for your time.
Clare Owens

I've known Clare for many years now and I wouldn't go anywhere else to book a holiday as nothing is too much trouble. She always tries to adhere to all your needs as best as she possibly can and will also recommend different ideas she truly is a class act.

I am absolutely overwhelmed with how effectively Clare Owens has serviced our requirements with regards to our forthcoming holiday. She worked very hard whilst my husband and I hardly did a thing. Usually we would spend half a day in a travel agent, and at the end settle for the best available deal. Clare spent loads of time first putting together the perfect holiday, and then tirelessly working to get us the best price. For as long as Claire is around, we will never use a high street travel agent again. We are really looking forward to our holiday, and would definitely recommend Travel Counsellors - particularly Clare Owens to anyone and everyone - and in fact I already have!

Clare went above and beyond our expectations when we needed an urgent return from Marrakech after an accident late on Saturday. She picked up our email and got us onto a flight at lunchtime the following day including wheelchair help at all three airports. She kept in touch throughout our journey home. We felt well supported.

Always a pleasure..... A massive massive thank you Clare Owens for our recent Mexico booking. You really made Paul's 50th so special - from Champagne and chocs on flight, to flowers and rose petals in room. It was a beautiful room with the best location and view. Thank you so much for booking the Japanese a la carte show table on his birthday. He was so surprised when they blindfolded him and brought out a birthday cake with candles in! Thanks for all your recommendations and all the extras and additions you did to make this holiday so special and memorable.

We recently got back from our Honeymoon on a Kruger Park safari followed by a weeks all inclusive in Mauritius that was arranged by Clare. She arranged everything for us and made what was an amazing holiday even better by arranging room upgrades and complimentary fizz for us. I would definitely use her again as she can do what you don't believe is possible!

We used Clare Owens in Dec 2013 to look at a holiday for Christmas period. Clare was extremely helpful and patient, advising us of the hotels on offer. We decided not to book any holiday at that time, we have however just booked a break with Clare for Easter 2014. Nothing was too much trouble for Clare, often emailing me in the evening. All the information supplied to us was exceptional and everything discussed in depth. I feel that it was a personal and very professional service and I have already spoken highly of Clare to numerous friends whom will hopefully be in contact with her. Thank you so much.
