0207 112 0240Hi, I’m Vicki I help people plan holidays that are not only seamless and stress-free, but genuinely worth looking forward to.Because booking a holiday should feel exciting. In reality, it often turns into hours of scrolling, comparing, second-guessing and hoping you’ve made the right choice.That’s where I come in.I take the time to understand exactly what you want from your trip, then use my experience, trusted suppliers and industry insight to create something that fits properly — not just something that looks good online. From flights and hotels to the finer details that make all the difference, I handle everything for you.Who I Help — and Why It MattersI work with people who don’t just want a holiday — they want it done properly.Busy professionals People who don’t have the time (or patience) to spend hours researching options and want someone they trust to get it right first time.Families From school holiday travel to multi-generational trips, I make sure everything runs smoothly and works for everyone — without the stress.Couples and special occasions Honeymoons, milestone birthdays and anniversaries — the trips that really matter. These are the ones where details count, and I make sure they feel exactly as they should.Clients who value quality over guesswork If you’ve ever booked something online and thought “this isn’t quite what I expected,” you’ll understand the difference. I offer honest, informed recommendations so you avoid those moments.Why Clients Work With MeBecause I don’t just book holidays — I take ownership of the whole experience.I know which hotels are worth it and which just photograph well. I spot flight routes that look cheaper but don’t make sense in reality. I understand how destinations actually feel, not just how they’re marketed.And if something changes while you’re away, you’re not left dealing with it alone — I’m here to support you from start to finish.The Bottom LineYou could book it yourself.But if you want the right hotel, the right location, and a smooth, well-planned experience from start to finish — that’s where I come in.Let’s plan something you’ll genuinely look forward to. -

01932 809 630Hello and thank you for visiting my web page. If you’re looking for a holiday personally tailored to your requirements, with support from the time you book until the moment you arrive safely back home, you’re in exactly the right place. Do you love to travel, but haven’t got either the time or inclination to research? Or would you like a once in a lifetime holiday and don’t know where to start? How do you know the company you’ve found online is legitimate? What if things go wrong before you travel or while you’re away? I love to research holidays and have a real interest in Africa and the Far East both of which I’ve been lucky enough to visit on more than one occasion. These holidays can often involve a number of flights, hotels, excursions and transfers. I have a network of trusted suppliers based all over the world who can help me to create bespoke (100% financially protected) holidays. Recent events have reinforced the need to use an experienced travel provider. A real person who is available for you to speak to, right up until the moment you return from your holiday. My decision to become a Travel Counsellor was born from a love of travel and a desire to help others realise their travel dreams. I’m passionate about good customer service – something which is sadly lacking in today’s environment. I provide my customers with a personal service; they only ever deal with me and I’m delighted I have some wonderful customers I now call friends. My love of travel goes back a long way; sparked by my first holiday abroad, a two-week Mediterranean cruise with school. As soon as I could I went to work for an airline – only leaving to bring up my two, now grown up, children. They both had their first holiday abroad when they were 3 months old and still love to travel. When the children were younger, we had lots of family trips to Europe (particularly Germany) and USA. More recently my husband and I have had some real ‘bucket list’ holidays – visiting Singapore, Vietnam, India, Australia in addition to various African and Far East countries. Our most recent family trip was visiting Lapland between Christmas 2025 and the new year. We’re busy planning more trips, but the list just gets longer! When you’re considering your next holiday why not get in touch for a chat – I promise you won’t regret it. -

My family have lived in Hertfordshire since at least the 1600s. That’s probably why I felt the need to escape and see a bit more of the world; travel after all broadens the mind.Sport and travel have always been passions of mine and I have combined the two by arranging and selling skiing holidays for many years and I have also been involved in running cricket and rugby tours to both the UK and Europe.I’ve been in the travel industry for over 30 years and have experienced and enjoyed many different roles so I have a great understanding of what you, the customer wants from every aspect of their holiday.From being an overseas representative in destinations as diverse as Ibiza and Switzerland and contracting hotels, apartments and villas in Cyprus, Turkey, the Canary Islands, mainland Spain, Greek Islands and many, many more fabulous holiday destinations, my main ambition has always been to ensure that everything is right for the customer!I’m often asked what my favourite holiday destination is and it is so difficult to pick just one place from all the great and varied opportunities out there. However here goes with a few favourites: for skiing I love Italy, as much for the food and atmosphere as the skiing, Australia and India are places I must visit again as there is so much more to see. I have a particular soft spot for Cyprus, its history and its people. My favourite cities must include Florence, New York, Lisbon and Sydney.I look forward to helping you visit some of your personal favourites or even better discover your own brand new “dream destination”. -

Holidays are something we look forward to, invest in and remember for years to come. That is why it matters who you book with.

0207 112 7002Hei, Thanks for taking time out to let me outline my and my partner's experience.I learnt my trade working for and with, amongst others, Colin Murison Small who more or less invented the alpine ski 'chalet girl’, Colin Trigger a one time Chairman of ABTA & ATOL, and the legendary Vladimir Raitz who held the country’s first ATOL when in 1949 he sent 21 people to Corsica for £35 a head!! I’ve watched the sun rise over Table Mountain, sink beneath the horizon in the Aegean and stay above it all night in the Svalbard Archipelago. I’ve slept in a mountain hut on the edge of an Icelandic glacier and a staffed villa on a coconut plantation in the Dominican Republic. I've organised family holidays, culture tours, a product launch on an Icelandic glacier, weddings in the sun and snow, sales incentive meetings and more. My partner Anna ( Hyndman Lahna) spent 3 decades working in tour operation, retail travel, repatriation and for Singapore Airlines & South African Airways. What she doesn’t know about airline ticketing isn’t worth knowing. She has equally eclectic experiences to mine having white water rafted on the Zambezi River, trekked by camel across the Gobi desert, flip flopped over the Piranha River Bridge into Paraguay, and trained elves for Father Christmas in Lapland.Together we fuse our collective experience (and experiences) with Travel Counsellors' state of the art technology to plan, polish and perfect your holiday the way you want it to be. To see to it that everything works flawlessly for you from beginning to end. 'With us its Personal' is more than the company strap line its how we work so you get the travel arrangements you want.

Every traveller is different, and I take the time to really get to know you, your interests, and what makes a holiday feel special. For some, that might mean a self-drive road trip, a once-in-a-lifetime adventure, or an exhilarating city break.

This means you can spend less time stressed over logistics and more time planning the memories you’ll create. Because ultimately, travel isn’t just about the places you visit—it’s about the experiences you share, the laughter, the discoveries, and the moments that stay with you forever.I love getting into the finer details because it’s often the little touches that transform a good trip into an unforgettable one. Whether that’s recommending the best family-friendly spots, finding a hidden gem along your route, or ensuring your cruise cabin has the view you’ve been dreaming of, I take care of it all.When you book with me, you’ll benefit from my personal service and attention to detail, alongside the backing and buying power of Travel Counsellors.

I love nothing more than talking through your holiday ideas and turning them into carefully thought‑out journeys that feel like they have been created just for you.With nearly 30 years of experience in the travel industry, including 17 years working within the airline world, I bring both professional expertise and real‑world insight to every booking. I have seen first‑hand how important it is to have someone you trust guiding you through the detail, and I am here to be that person for you.Over the years I have developed particular expertise in planning trips to the USA (especially California), Japan and Italy alongside the rest of the world. In the USA and California, I can help you design everything from classic Highway 1 road trips and stays in San Francisco or Los Angeles, to itineraries that weave in national parks, wine country and family‑friendly stops. In Japan, I understand how to make the most of your time with well‑paced rail itineraries, the right mix of cities and quieter spots, and experiences that blend the must‑see sights with more authentic moments. In Italy, I can help you link together its lakes, cities and coastline, or create slower, food‑focused journeys that showcase local flavours, vineyards and historic towns. These destinations reward good planning, and my role is to make them feel effortless for you.I believe every holiday should feel personal. I take away the stress, confusion and hours of online searching by handling the research, design and organisation for you, so you can simply enjoy the anticipation and then relax once you are away.Travel has always been a big part of our family life. I have extensive first‑hand experience of travelling with young children, teens and now adults, with our own holidays taking us to Thailand, Malaysia, Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Barbados, European city breaks and road trips across America. That lived experience means I know what works in reality: timings, transfers, hotel choices and little touches that make all the difference on the ground.Now that my children are older and new milestones are being reached, I truly understand how precious time away is, whether you are marking a special birthday, planning a multi‑generation celebration or treating yourselves to a much‑needed escape for two.Every holiday you book with me is 100% financially protected by either the Travel Counsellors Financial Trust or ATOL, giving you complete peace of mind.

02890 080 016My name is Fiona and I live near the lovely town of Holywood on the County Down coast.Thank you so much for visiting my website and here is a little bit about myself!My great love of travel started at the early age of 5 when my Dad used to take me to watch the planes taking-off and landing at Dulles Airport in Washington DC. I can also remember a game we played whereby he would ask me to name the capital city of various countries and I just got hours of amusement from this.After completing my degree in French at the Queens University of Belfast, I took a year out during which I spent 4 months in the beautiful city of Vancouver with my aunt and uncle. It was just an amazing time and, after that, I finally made my mind up that I wanted to start my working career in the travel industry.I now have over 30 years of experience in mainly business travel and it really is hard to believe where the time has gone! I started in the travel agency environment before I moved into the IT industry nearly 18 years ago where my expertise was, for the most part, used to manage corporate travel programs. I guess, therefore, that I can say I’ve worked on both sides of the fence so have an excellent understanding of the needs of both the client and the supplier.The company which I most recently worked for has 5 core values: integrity, passion, innovation, humility and transparency and I genuinely believe that I live my life in accordance with these values. They are of a great help to me in my workplace and personal life.I am absolutely delighted to now be at the stage in my career of running my own business and helping corporates to manage their travel programs. That said, I’m passionate about all aspects of travel and, in the knowledge that personal holidays are so important to us all, I would be more than happy to look after these too. I have travelled widely on long haul trips as well as weekend breaks and longer holidays within Europe.I pride myself in offering a personal, cost-effective and time-saving service. My working hours are flexible and I research each and every trip thoroughly to ensure best value, suitability and convenience are obtained. The term “that’ll do” just does not come into my vocabulary.I do hope that my service may be of interest to you. I really would appreciate the opportunity to work with you with the aim of creating that “perfect trip” over and over again!Best Wishes, Fiona -

02838 220025If you are thinking about a cruise or a carefully planned multi-centre holiday, you are in the right place.I specialise in creating cruise and multi-centre experiences that are thoughtfully designed around you. From Mediterranean sailings paired with boutique city stays, to Canada and Alaska journeys that combine rail and cruise, to Asia explorations or Australia and New Zealand adventures with seamless touring woven in, I bring clarity and reassurance to what can otherwise feel overwhelming.Cruising can feel deceptively simple at first, but the choices matter. Which ship truly suits your style? Is a balcony worth the investment? Are drinks packages good value for you? What if you choose the wrong cruise line? Do you need to fly the day before? And what about gratuities, Wi-Fi, visas, or insurance requirements? These decisions shape your entire experience, and getting them right makes all the difference.Drawing on two decades of industry experience, first-hand sailing knowledge, ongoing specialist training and strong relationships with leading cruise lines, I provide clear, honest advice at every stage. I explain the differences between cruise lines, ship sizes and cabin categories in plain English, so you feel informed rather than overwhelmed. I am here to help you make the right decision and book with confidence.For multi-centre holidays, I manage all of the moving parts for you. Sensible flight times, smooth connections and well-located hotels. Pre- and post-cruise stays that enhance your experience rather than complicate it. I take care of the logistics behind the scenes, so all you need to focus on is enjoying the experience.When you book with me, you are not just securing a holiday. You are gaining independent expert guidance, financial protection through the Travel Counsellors trust account, and one personal point of contact from enquiry to departure and beyond. If plans change or something unexpected happens, you have someone in your corner who will handle it.Many of my clients return year after year because they value having someone who understands how they like to travel, who is honest about what is worth the extra cost, and who takes care of the details.If you would like your next cruise or multi-centre holiday planned with care and expertise, I would love to help. -

01524576015I've always been the "go-to travel person" in my circle - the one people message at 10pm asking "What's the weather like here?" or "Can you check my itinerary?" After working in travel before and planning more holidays than I can count, turning that passion into something I get to do every day just made sense. Travel has always been a huge part of my life. I genuinely believe it's one of the best things you can do for your mental health - whether that's switching off on a beach. exploring somewhere new, or finding a place that makes you feel a bit more like yourself again. That feeling is exactly why I love what I do. Seeing someone return home relaxed, refreshed and full of memories, knowing I played a small part in it, is something I'll never get tired of. I'm a solo traveller at heart and have explored Europe, Thailand and Canada. My next bucket list trip is Antarctica next year, which I'm super excited about. Greece, though, is the place that has my whole heart - and where I hope to live one day with my Golden Retriever, Digby. Speaking of Digby...he's officially my Head of Marketing and Chief Happiness Officer. He specialises in morale boosting, attention-seeking, and reminding me when it's time for a holiday. He also keeps me well-trained in finding the best dog-friendly spots - we're planning a trip to France after Christmas so if you're wanting to travel with your pet, you're in very capable hands. My approach is simple: no pressure, just honest advice and thoughtful, tailored travel planning. I take the time to understand what matters to you and make sure every detail feels 100% perfect. Wherever you're dreaming of next, I'm here to help you get there - stress-free, excited, and ready to make those unforgettable memories. -

I have worked for some of the leading travel organisations in the UK dealing with a wide variety of different travel requirements from, cheap and cheerful breaks to tailor-made holidays of a lifetime as well as more recently diversifying into business travel helping companies making the most of what they spend on travel. I have always wanted to work for myself but at the same time I wanted to ensure I had the infrastructure to make sure I could offer the best deals whilst delivering exceptional service to my clients and being part Travel Counsellors has given me the platform to do that. I always go above and beyond and particularly in these uncertain times, like me, you’ll always want to make sure you can pay for your holiday with the confidence that should anything go wrong then you are 100% financially protected.So why book with me? I’m well-travelled, what I mean by that is I have travelled to over 51 different countries and 5 continents, including; Europe, America, Hawaii, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Cook Island, Asia, Kenya, India, United Arab Emirates, Indian Ocean, Caribbean, Costa Rica and Egypt.

I completed my degree, travelled for a year, and qualified as an accountant, working in London. But what started as a way to escape my studies grew into a passion for researching and planning travel. As a result, I took extensive training in the Travel Counsellor Academy, and started my own independent travel business in May 2016.I take time to get to know my clients, their travel dreams and their absolute must-haves. I listen to the details of what works for them and what needs to be avoided. I genuinely care that they have the best holidays possible, and that the planning process is as smooth and as fun as it can be.I can help you with travel plans for all worldwide destinations, and all holiday styles. I have travelled extensively, and with great variety, staying in $4 guesthouses in Phnom Penh, and 5* resorts in St Lucia. In 2016 I returned from four years living in Barbados, so I would consider myself an expert on this location, and the surrounding islands. I love to attend and participate in sporting and musical events as I travel. I’ve golfed in Patagonia, dived with sharks in Saba, partied at Coachella festival, and cheered on the Heat in Miami. Not that you need an excuse, but if you want to travel for a specific interest, I look forward to hearing all about it, and building your holidays accordingly.My hours are flexible and I can discuss your travel requirements at a time that suits you, including weekends and evenings.

I have explored South Africa extensively: from the winelands of the Western Cape and the vibrant streets of Cape Town, to Big Five safaris, the wild coastline, charming small towns and hidden local gems that many visitors never get to see.Having grown up there, I do not just know South Africa from a brochure: I know the seasons, the regions, the culture and those special little touches that turn a good trip into an extraordinary one. Whether it is a first-time safari, a self-drive Garden Route adventure, a romantic escape in the winelands, or a multi-generational family holiday, I can design a journey that feels authentic, safe and completely tailored to you.My own travels have also taken me far beyond South Africa. I have studied in beautiful Switzerland, enjoyed the energy and luxury of Dubai, and experienced one of my most unforgettable adventures in the Amazon Rainforest. This wider perspective helps me create seamless itineraries that often combine South Africa with other destinations, or craft exceptional getaways all around the world.As your Travel Counsellor, I am here to turn your ideas into a perfectly planned, stress-free holiday.

0191 381 0080Hello, and welcome. I’m Darren, your personal Travel Counsellor, and I’m based in Durham. This year I celebrate 38 years in the travel industry: from the humble beginnings of stamping brochures in a high street agency to now running my own travel business, designing holidays that truly matter to my clients.Over the years I have not only worked in travel, I have lived it. I have lived and worked in both Perth and Brisbane in Australia, and spent time as a resort rep in Menorca, Corfu and Athens. That first-hand experience of destinations, airports, transfers, hotels and local life means I understand what really makes a holiday work once you are actually there.I have always had a genuine passion for travel and have spent many years researching and booking our own trips: from fly-drives along the Californian coast and magical Christmases in New York, to weekends in Europe’s great cities and lazy beach escapes on the Greek islands.For me, every holiday has one very important thing in common: how special it is to the people taking it. Whether it is a long-awaited family getaway, a once-in-a-lifetime adventure or a quick city break to recharge, it deserves to be treated with care. My guiding principle is simple: every trip I am trusted to arrange receives the same level of attention to detail, so that my customers are happy to return to me year after year.As a Travel Counsellor I have access to a wide range of exclusive tools, knowledge and global partners. This allows me to arrange everything from UK staycations and European beach breaks to complex multi-centre itineraries and round-the-world journeys. I will listen carefully to what you want, then shape a holiday around you, rather than trying to fit you into something off the shelf.With my experience, destination knowledge and passion for service, I aim to take away the stress and uncertainty that can come with booking a holiday. I will handle as much or as little as you need, from flights and accommodation to transfers, car hire, excursions and those little touches that make a trip feel truly personal.When you book with me, you will also benefit from:- 100% financial protection through the Travel Counsellors Trust. - The MyTC app, where you can view your quotes, bookings, travel documents and flight updates, and make payments securely in one place. - 24/7 support, with help on hand around the clock should anything unexpected arise during your travels.If you are thinking about your next getaway, I would love to help. Get in touch with me for a chat about your holiday ideas, and together we can start turning them into those special memories that last a lifetime. -

Some of my highlights include; trekking to see mountain gorillas in Rwanda, over-landing through Central America, seeing the Pyramids of Egypt and cruising the Nile, marvelling at the temples of Angkor Wat, and soaking up the music and atmosphere on the streets of Havana. Along the way I’ve stayed in an eclectic range of accommodation, from simple beach shacks to luxurious villas and palaces, so I can offer guidance whatever the budget.For peace of mind, anything you book with me is 100% financially protected by the Travel Counsellors Financial Trust and ATOL.
