It's Nice To Meet You

Hello

My name is Dawn and I live in Banbury in Oxfordshire. I became a personal Travel Counsellor because quite simply I take pride in offering the highest level of personalised customer service to my clients.

I have over 38 years’ experience in the travel industry working in all aspects of a travel which includes, corporate, and leisure, including Weddings and Honeymoons.

I have travelled extensively during those 38 years, and as a result am able to share my knowledge and experience to further enhance your holiday. I am so passionate about what I do and adore looking after my client’s individual needs. I look forward to helping you with yours.

I would be delighted to assist you with your travel plans - whether it’s new ideas on holiday destinations, an overnight hotel at the airport or a round the world cruise. As an independent agent I am able to deal with many different suppliers, and will use them to provide you with the very best travel options. This will save you time and money, and you’ll have the confidence that someone genuinely cares about you.

In addition you can relax in the knowledge that every penny you spend with me is safe thanks to the Travel Counsellors financial trust. If offers the best financial protection in the industry and is free of charge for all our customers.

Thank you for taking the time to visit my page - I look forward to being of assistance to you the next time you book your holiday or have any other travel related enquiry.

After weeks of loosing myself in travel websites and getting frustrated as the criteria wasn’t quite met, I contacted Dawn. Within 30 mins of my initial enquiry and brief I had a clear recommendation, which ticked every single box-and some boxes that I didn’t know needed ticking! Would definitely use again. Thank you so much xx

Review of Travel Counsellors Trip to 5 locations Dawn and Lindsay at travel counsellors ensured our trip was memorable. It was a difficult trip to organise as it was like 5 holidays in one. There was lots to coordinate with flights transfers and accommodation. Thanks to them everything went smoothly. It was extra challenging as we had some mobility issues but Dawn ensured there was the help we needed at each airport. We stayed in lovely hotels and enjoyed time to explore and relax in all our locations. Dawn and Lindsay checked in to make sure we had boarding passes etc but was never intrusive. We felt confident at all times that had we had a problem she would have helped resolve it. By using travel counsellors we had the benefit of Dawn’s knowledge of the places we wanted to visit, Qatar, New Zealand, Australia and USA. We can’t thank Dawn and Lindsay enough and would thoroughly recommend travel counsellors. Date of experience: 05 June 2025
