I am an award winning, experienced travel professional and offer a wide range of fully financially protected, quality holidays.
You're in safe hands with me; I've been in travel more than 20 years and a Travel Counsellor for 14 years. I've organised lots of dream holidays, honeymoons and bucket list trips and have lots of experience and knowledge to call on.
Do you find researching and booking holidays stressful? Do you worry about getting hold of someone who can help you if things don't go to plan? My customers have my personal mobile number and can call me at any time. I pride myself on offering a very personal service and you're never on your own when you've booked with me. I have been available to guide and support my customers throughout strikes, flight cancellations and itinerary changes; my professionalism and experience reassures my customers and I stay up to date on all the changing rules and regulations, passing on relevant information so my customers don't have to worry about a thing.
I am fortunate to have travelled all over the world; some of my favourite places include California, New York and The Whitsundays in Australia. I love the Caribbean for the laid back pace of life and I’m lucky that I’ve visited many of these beautiful islands, most recently St Lucia.
I've visited Canada, exploring Ontario including Niagara Falls, Toronto, Ottawa and the Muskoka Region. I love the USA, and road trips here are a speciality of mine. In Malaysia I explored Kuala Lumpur and Borneo and in Thailand I stayed in Bangkok, Phuket, Krabi and also the wonderful Elephant Hills (look it up, it is one for the bucket list!). In 2024 I was in Vietnam and explored the north and south in depth. Closer to home I have spent time in Sorrento, Cyprus and Dubrovnik as well as many Greek islands and am an expert in this area, having visited Kos, Rhodes, Crete, Corfu, Zante, Paxos, and Parga. My most recent trip was the Maldives - true paradise!
If you're planning a trip to any of these places, I've got the up to date inside track on the places to stay and things to see while you are there.

I’ve recently been to paradise, also known as LUX South Ari Atoll, Maldives. It was my first time to the Maldives, and I think the bar has been well and truly set high! The Maldives is known for being a dream destination, however, when you are thinking about a trip to the Maldives there’s quite a lot to consider before you make plans. Firstly, it’s just over a 10 hour flight; some people prefer

Kos is a fantastic place for a summer holiday, and it is a very pretty island. Long and thin, it is only 2km wide at is narrowest point! Kos is only just over 3 hours flight time from the UK, so not too far if you are travelling with children. I stayed at the all-inclusive Gaia Palace hotel in Mastichiari. A short transfer of 20 minutes from the airport was perfect for us and before long we were

I recently visited Croatia, staying on the Dubrovnik Riviera in a pretty little resort called Cavtat. I was looking for somewhere authentic, unspoilt and yet close to the historic city of Dubrovnik, which I wanted to explore. Cavtat did not disappoint, in fact it exceeded my expectations. It is a harbour town, with little restaurants dotted along the harbour front overlooking the crystal clear

I travelled on the Eurostar from London direct to Marne le Vallee, which is at the Disneyland Resort. I recommend allowing at least 1.5 hours for check-in as the queues at London were very long. The journey itself was really comfortable and the two-hour journey went fast; before we knew it we were at Disneyland! We were staying at the Disneyland Hotel which is Disney's 5* flagship hotel, situa

Menorca is a fantastic choice for a family holiday; it is a short 2.5-hour flight from the UK and the flight times tend to be at civilized hours, perfect when you are travelling with children. The transfer times in resort aren't too long either - I stayed in Cala'n Bosch which is one of the resorts furthest from the airport and the transfer duration was 45 minutes. We checked into the Zafiro Ho

Sorrento is a beautiful place to spend some time; known for its lemons and oranges, they are everywhere to see. Visiting in springtime is a great idea as all the blossom is on the trees and the weather is perfect for a warm Mediterranean break, without the crowds of the summer months. Sorrento is easy to get around and quite compact, so it is well suited to those who are only here for a few d

My family and I enjoyed a great short break to Devon in February. I booked a cottage for a three-night escape in a small village called Langtree, near Torrington. It was ideally located for exploring north Devon (an area I hadn't explored up to now). The cottage had two bedrooms and was really well set up - they even provided milk, tea/coffee and a bottle of wine on arrival! The cottage was cos

I spent a fantastic week exploring Kuala Lumpur and Borneo recently, here is what I got up to... Turkish Airlines flew us out from Manchester via Istanbul. The first thing which struck me was the excellent service from the cabin crew. The economy cabin was comfortable and the entertainment onboard was really good - lots of blockbuster movies, and a wide choice of television and music channels.

I was lucky enough to be invited over to California by the tourist board & Air New Zealand, here's how I got on! Flying out in business class with Air New Zealand was a fabulous way to start the trip. The seats were very comfortable and converted at the click of a switch into a flat bed. The entertainment on board was wide ranging and enjoyable and I was impressed with the food offering. I was

I’ve just got back from the most amazing adventure! I flew to Thailand with Thai Airways on their A380 which was a lovely experience; the service and food was excellent. It is an 11 hour flight to Bangkok, but the time passed quickly thanks to good inflight entertainment and a good book! I was due to stay in several places on my trip and I was really looking forward to it. My first stay was at

Norway has always been on my 'must see' list and I finally got there! I flew with Norwegian Airlines from Gatwick and was very impressed with the efficiency and comfort of the flight. Norwegian is a low cost airline but I had a baggage allowance of 20kg and was able to buy food and drink on board. The flight was on time and took 1hour 45 minutes to reach Bergen. Bergen is a beautiful city.

I've just come back from Munich, the capital of Bavaria and I had such a fantastic time! I flew there with Lufthansa from Heathrow - I hadn't flown with them before and I was really impressed. Never before has a plane I've been on taken off EARLY from an airport, but with trademark German efficiency, we did! Upon landing in Munich's terminal 2, it was a really easy two minute walk to the tube s

I was lucky enough to spend a week exploring Cyprus during March and what a beautiful island it is! The Cyprus Tourist Board showed me around and I visited Larnaca, Ayia Napa, Protaras, Limassol, Paphos and the Troodos Mountains. Here is a summary of my adventure. Cyprus is just under five hours flying time from London and I flew with Aegean from Heathrow, although there are lots of regional ai

Lake Tahoe is situated in a beautiful, mountainous part of California, and is best known for being a premiere ski destination but it can also be a perfect choice for a spring or summer break too. Its closest airport is Reno and the lake is located around an hour from there. It's an easy drive with scenery which will take your breath away. For me, one of the most spectacular things I discovered is

Stylish, desirable, exclusive, world-class golf...these are all words which spring to mind when describing the island of Bermuda. It's also a tiny island measuring only 21 miles long, lying all on its own in the middle of the ocean. It is one very desirable destination and I was fortunate enough to spend a few days there being shown around by the Bermuda Tourism Board. I learnt so many fascinat

Mammoth by name and mammoth by nature. This spectacular resort is very popular with skiers and it's easy to see why. Situated at an elevation of 8,000ft, Mammoth is a monster of a resort - one of the biggest in North America - and offers skiing for an incredibly long season which begins in November and runs through to June, offering the most consistent snowfall in California. This vast resort has

Ottowa is a great city and is very safe with a low key atmosphere, unlike other capital cities such as London and Paris. Whilst it is the capital city of Canada, it is smaller than Toronto and has a very relaxed feel to it. It's the perfect short break destination for those who enjoy the outdoors lifestyle, as biking, hiking and green spaces are very much in evidence here. It's also a great pla

Toronto is Canada's largest city and is a fabulous holiday destination. It's home to some iconic attractions and rivals New York for the sheer amount of shopping on offer. There are three main 'areas' to the city - Yorkville (home to the trendy boutiques and shops), Dundas Square area (the shopping and entertainment district including the famous Eaton Centre) and the Harbourfront from where y
