It's Nice To Meet You

My name is Elizabeth Shiel and I am an independent travel agent in Rotherham. I have been in the travel industry for 37 years. I joined Travel Counsellors in 2004 and before that I was a Senior Travel Consultant in a high street agency.

I joined Travel Counsellors because I wanted to concentrate on offering my customers the highest possible levels of personal service and independent travel advice. I have many repeat clients who have booked with me for the past 36 years and have been extremely satisfied with my service and have referred me to their Family and Friends.

Travel Counsellors is one of the largest independent travel agencies in the UK.

As your own professional Travel Counsellor I can use our award winning technology and my personal expertise to tailor make exactly the right holiday to suit your needs. Rather than selling you a standard tour operator package, I can quickly search through hundreds of different flights, accommodation and transfer alternatives to find something that suits your needs exactly. Quite often this means I can build you a bespoke holiday at a cheaper price than the standard holiday package you might get elsewhere.

Travel Counsellors recognises that not everyone is free to discuss their travel arrangements during the working week. My company’s award winning technology enables me to work from home and means you can contact me at times when most other travel agents are unavailable, including evenings and weekends.

With my wealth of knowledge and the holidays and cruises I have been on over the years I am sure I will be able to assist you in booking your perfect holiday. Furthermore my business is based purely on providing my customers with the highest possible levels of personal service and I would be delighted to assist you with your holiday plans.
I hope to hear from you soon.

Cruising onboard Azura

15 June 2023

Finally, this year after postponing this cruise 3 times due to the pandemic, my husband and I finally boarded Azura for a 7-night Mediterranean cruise. We flew from Manchester to Malta, where we boarded Azura. The transfer to the ship was very quick and easy. Once onboard we sat in the sunshine, ate lunch and awaited delivery of our cases to the cabin. When all passengers had embarked we set sail, very exciting. Our itinerary included. Ajaccio in Corsica, birthplace of Napoleon. Very pretty tree lined streets with beautiful views of snowcapped mountains in the distance. Livorno in Italy, we travelled through the beautiful Tuscan countryside to Florence. Florence is a beautiful city, excellent for Art lovers. We then travelled to Pisa. I still can’t believe how the tower is standing!! You need to see it to believe it. Rome, this is a must. Steeped in history, from the Colosseum, Trevi fountain and St Peters Basilica it is breathtaking! Naples, from Naples we travelled to the very pretty cliff top resort of Sorrento. This is somewhere I would return. I would like to holiday on the Amalfi coast, it is beautiful. We also went to Pompeii , which was once a thriving Roman city which unfortunately was buried under the ash from Mount Vesuvius, but you can still see remains from Roman times, again you need to see it to believe it! We chose this cruise because of the itinerary, and it didn't disappoint. We enjoyed being onboard Azura, the food is excellent, we especially enjoyed The Beach House. The entertainment was very good, from live singers, comedians to the Captains Welcome party overall we had a fantastic time, and I can’t wait to sail again.

My customer stories

I'm delighted with the service I receive from Liz, having arranged three holidays with her over the last 18 months or so. I couldn't be happier with the service, the attention to detail, answering what I imagine must be for her tedious concerns and always willing to go that extra mile. A consummate professional and a really lovely, lovely person. Were it possible, I'd score 20 out of 10!Sincere thanks Liz, for all you do.

I would just like to say Liz is so professional and she always gives her best in fact she gives 150 percent with her job. I have booked with Liz for many years and I also pass her telephone number onto family and friends to hope she get more business. I know the people i have recommend have had so many nice things to say about Liz. I have also booked 2 cruises with her for this year and hope to carry on booking in the future. I would not book with anyone else as I know Liz would always be on hand if i needed her whether it is in this country or abroad.

Liz is more of a friend than a Travel Counsellor and has made mine and my partner's dreams come true one holiday at a time. I recommend her to everyone I know and couldn't speak higher of her as a person and as a professional.
