It's Nice To Meet You

Hi, I’m Darren – thanks for stopping by my Travel Counsellors page.

I’m originally from Barnsley in South Yorkshire, but these days I live just outside Durham with my partner and our cheeky Cockapoo, Toffee.

I work from home and support customers all over the UK. I’m available at times that suit you – whether that’s during the day, in the evening, or even at the weekend. I’m here when you need me.

I’ve worked in the travel industry for over 35 years, in everything from high street travel shops to tour operators here in the UK and abroad. It’s safe to say travel is in my blood – and I love nothing more than helping people plan amazing getaways.

I specialise in European holidays and cruises, but I can help you head pretty much anywhere in the world. Every trip I plan gets the same level of care and attention as I’d give to organising my own.

When you book with me, you’ll have peace of mind knowing everything’s fully financially protected. You’ll also have access to our 24/7 duty office, and of course, I’ll be with you every step of the way – from first enquiry to when you’re back home.

So whenever you’re ready to start thinking about your next adventure, just give me a shout – I’d love to help!

Highlights of Sri Lanka

16 October 2025

Sri Lanka wasn't always at the top of my travel list. It was a distant name — beautiful in theory, but not somewhere I had ever seriously considered. That all changed when I joined an escorted tour across Sri Lanka — and what a decision that turned out to be.
