My experiences began early. My Dad started his own travel business in the 1970s and I've been absorbed by the subject ever since. I went down another road for a while – a degree in accountancy, a Masters in IT – but the family business was way more interesting. I've never looked back. Travel has so many benefits. I'm proof of that, and have been lucky to see so many countries, cultures, resorts and… experiences. After more than twenty years in the industry, I've been running my own business since 2015. Edinburgh is my home.Please feel free to have a nosey around my website for some inspiration! www.gillianstewartholidays.com

My name is Lisa and I would really appreciate the opportunity to become your personal Travel Counsellor.I have 36 years’ experience working in the travel industry, most of which were spent in an independent agency and now, as a Travel Counsellor, that ethos of independence is able to continue.I have visited many countries over the years, as a single person, in a couple, as a mother and now as a 'mature' person (!), so can give advice from many different perspectives. Australia, New Zealand, the Caribbean, Singapore, Hong Kong, America, Mexico, much of Europe and many more destinations feature on my list of visited countries.As your personal Travel Counsellor I can help make your dreams come true by completing all the research and arrangements for you. A simple telephone call, Facebook message or email from you to discuss your needs is all it takes. From there I can take the reins and guide you, with my knowledge, experience and personal attention, to book the perfect destination for you.Although the term 'Counsellor' suggests an advice service, my service stretches far beyond that. I do not *just* advise - I book everything for you and remain a constant support to you in the run up to your holiday, whilst you are away and until you are home again!This undertaking is made easier for me by the award-winning technology offered by Travel Counsellors. I have access to some 3000 suppliers, which can be searched quickly and efficiently to provide the exact solution to your requirements, be it a tailor-made ‘round the world’ trip, a flight only, a honeymoon, a luxury hotel break or a cottage in Scotland.Customer service is of paramount importance to me and I appreciate that not everyone may be available to discuss their plans during office hours. This is exactly why I offer the flexibility of evening and weekend accessibility at a time to suit you…and I can guarantee that it will always be me on the end of the line (my own holidays excepted!) You will not be passed from pillar to post, or left in a telephone queuing system, wasting your time!If you would like regular updates of our current special offers then please forward your e-mail address via the contact link above or follow my Travel Counsellors Facebook account for offers, information and inspiration ... https://www.facebook.com/LisaRatcliffeTC/The travel bug is incurable! Once it is in your blood you are addicted for life! My love of travel led to my desire to work in the industry, from where I have attempted to spread my enthusiasm to clients and to make dreams come true. Now I would like to do the same for you!

My name is Ginny Scott, and I have worked in the travel industry since 1984.I hold an HND qualification in Business Studies and Travel & Tourism from Durham college, along with BA fares and ticketing levels 1 and 2, and numerous other travel related accreditations. I managed a really busy leisure travel shop for a Business Travel Agency in the City of London for 13 years where I had a small team of five looking after the holidays needs of our demanding corporate clients. It was a very happy and very successful part of the business. After taking redundancy due to relocation, I joined Travel Counsellors in October 2000 and I won the 'Best Newcomer' award the following year having built up a business pretty much from scratch. In December 2002, I had a much longed for daughter and became very adept at arranging family holidays with a small baby in tow!In 2003, Travel Counsellors introduced the GOLD status and I have been a Gold Travel Counsellor ever since flying off for celebration weekends annually to places like Cape Town, Barbados, Las Vegas and Dubai. I have travelled extensively, both on holiday and professionally. Some favourite destinations include Italy, Greece, Egypt, Brazil and Australia as well as much of the Indian Ocean including the Seychelles and Maldives. I had an amazing trip to Fiji - and have also visited much of the Middle East. Travel Counsellors has enabled me over the years to deliver a superior service to my clients using state of the art technology and an unrivalled range of product. I am adept at putting together tailor-made itineraries and love unusual requests. I am also Focalpoint trained which means I can book all flights worldwide at the touch of a button, and this is extremely useful when constructing complicated multi centre itineraries. I love a challenging request, and I look forward to hearing from you!

My name is Dave Beasley and I am an independent Business Travel Agent based in Solihull. I have been in the travel industry for over 30 years. I joined Travel Counsellors in 2006 and before that I worked for a number of blue chip travel organisations, predominantly in business travel. I joined Travel Counsellors as I wanted to concentrate on giving my customers the highest possible levels of personal service and independent travel advice. 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 flight, 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. I have a vast personal experience of many destinations including Europe, Africa, Middle East, North & South America, Caribbean and the Far East. I can help you arrange any part of your travel arrangements – so whether you just need a flight to Barcelona or a last minute holiday to Florida I can help. As part of a large organisation I can also have access to great deals on accommodation, so if you need to know the best Paris hotels for a last minute holiday to France, or the best Dubai hotels for a luxurious weekend in the sun please contact me. Of course I can also help with any other travel arrangements you may have, including holiday car hire and holiday insurance. 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.

Hi I’m Emma!I'm based in the lovely little village of Repton in South Derbyshire, and it would be my privilege to create unique and personalised travel experiences for you and your family and friends. A little about me - I was bitten with the travel bug from four years old when my parents took me on my first skiing holiday to the Austrian Alps. Since then, I have travelled the world for work, sport and pleasure – from backpacking around the world during my University gap year, to competing internationally for the GB Team in water-skiing and wakeboarding, to living and working in Dubai and the Middle East, to luxury resort holidays in long-haul destinations such as Bora Bora, Hawaii and Mauritius. I have personally travelled to 43 countries so far, and in 2023 I will be adding the Maldives and Croatia to my tally.I can assist you with door to door travel arrangements – from your flights, transfers, and accommodations, to detailed multi-stop itineraries, cruises, day tours, car hire, golf tee times, ski lessons and many other special requests. Meanwhile, you can sit back and relax and think about what to pack in your suitcase. (I have some helpful hints for packing too!)Throughout my previous careers I have worked in Brand management and International events. I bring with me an attention to detail and a love of planning and creating the WOW factor to a given budget. I am available beyond standard office hours at a time to suit you, so please call or email me at anytime.

Travel. Tailored by a human. Enjoyed by you. I work full-time planning travel. Let’s make sure you don’t have to. Based in London, I’ve worked in the Travel industry for over 20 years. Travel is the most enjoyable and most powerful learning tool we have as human beings. Travel enables us to learn about ourselves and the world around us. It bridges cultures, enriches lives and taking a break, however long, protects our mental health.Now for all the benefits that Travel provides, planning it properly can be confusing and stressful, and most of all TIME-CONSUMING! This is where working with a personal Travel Counsellor like me comes into its own.Travel Counsellors is a world-leading, award-winning, independent travel company offering 100% financial protection, 24/7 care whilst you are travelling and access to a community of Global travel experts, who deliver exceptional experiences, and great value to customers. We are experts in saving you time and lowering stress levels. From the minute you start researching, to when you get home. No one will put more thought and care into your travel plans than us. Booking with Travel Counsellors is not like booking with a regular travel agent - online or on the high street. Think of us more as your bank manager but for Travel, and obviously a lot more fun. Ensuring that you invest wisely, get the best value and maximise your time away. You always get to speak to a human – be that me or our wonderful support teams. There are no automated phone lines or call centres with Travel Counsellors. You speak with a human every time with your own direct line.I’ve been lucky to have travelled around the world many times over for both pleasure and business. I have lots of insights, recommendations, tips and tricks to share. If I had to pick my favourite destinations (it’s not easy) then I’d nominate Australia, South East Asia, the Far East, New York, California, Mexico, Italy and Greece. So whether it’s a multi-centre holiday, a trip with friends, a romantic trip for two, a honeymoon, a surprise birthday, a trip to celebrate retirement, an around-the-world adventure and anything and everything in between – I have the expertise to create your perfect trip, every time.EXPERT TIP: To get the most out of my service and expertise, and to save you lots of time in the long run, it is more effective and efficient to talk through requirements, rather than briefing solely by email. A conversation together will help us to capture your full requirements and enable us both to ask questions. So whatever your enquiry might be, I’d be delighted to hear from you by phone, email or WhatsApp to arrange to chat – and to see where this journey takes us!

My name is Charley and I’m based in Wells, Somerset where I live with my partner, children and two giant ginger cats.With over 13 years of travel industry experience, I’ve worked for both a high-end bespoke touring company and a luxury high street travel agent. What sets me apart from both companies, and certainly from online booking agents, is that I’m here to offer my clients unrivalled support throughout their entire holiday experience, from the first time we speak to after they’ve returned from their travels. I’ll be available to advise and answer any pre-travel questions, assist with all the extras that make a vacation truly special, such as room requests, dining reservations and experiences, and I’ll be there to help in worst-case scenarios, if anything goes wrong. Essentially think of me as your own personal travel concierge!My favourite place on earth is New Zealand, where I was lucky enough to live for nearly three years. In my opinion there is nowhere more visually beautiful, with its mountains, glaciers and lakes, white sand beaches and wineries, and honestly the friendliest locals you could meet. My other favourite travel memories are being within a couple of metres of three rhinos in Kruger National Park, seeing bears in Sequoia National Park (California) and travelling solo through the Tibetan mountains of southwest China – which hosts some of the most stunning scenery I’ve seen.I could talk about travel and my experiences for days, but my other passion is creating bespoke and personal itineraries to share with my clients so they can explore the places they’ve always dreamt of visiting. From luxury rail travel across Canada, to complex multi-stop cities in the USA, to your first safari in Africa or beach hopping in Thailand and Malaysia, I love the challenge of piecing it all together.As well as tailormade touring, I also work with a huge range of suppliers and resorts and can arrange everything from skiing to Caribbean beach holidays, from a weekend away in Europe to a cruise around the arctic or the Mediterranean. Anything booked through me (no matter how big or small) is fully protected financially and any flight inclusive trips are ATOL protected as well.As I work from home I am able to speak with clients at a time that suits them – whether this is during standard office hours, in the evenings or at weekends. I’m happy to arrange video calls or can even catch up for a chat over a coffee somewhere – my flexibility means I can work around them.I can be contacted over the phone, Skype, Whatsapp, Facebook or Instagram – give me a shout anytime as I can’t wait to discuss your next trip!

Welcome, thank you for visiting my page, I am delighted to meet you, I hope to be able to share & explore a passion for travel with you.My name is Tracy, I am a Travel Counsellor based on the East Coast in Sunny Suffolk where I have spent most of my adult life. My childhood was always filled with travel living in Germany meant travelling Europe was easier. This is where my passion for travel and different cultures started as we travelled frequently across Europe & Asia.In my former life I spent 30+ years as a Finance Manager in the private sector and I fulfilled my desire for travel through extended holidays from backpacking around Australia to exploring the far east. I finally took the plunge in 2020 & enrolled onto the Travel Counsellors Academy programme & for the past 4 year I have worked full time as a Travel Counsellor where I am able to follow my dreams in an industry that I love.My husband and I often travelled long haul prior to the arrival of our son Tommy, we have a passion for Asia & have travelled through Hong Kong, China, Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia & Thailand. We have also sampled the delights that are on offer in the Caribbean. More recently we have travelled across the Atlantic to Canada & also to the Middle East.Travelling with children can be a mixed blessing, full on family holiday can often leave you shattered but full of amazing memories which are treasured for years to come. Thankfully Tommy was happy to travel & always enjoyed spending time making new friends & whirling away a few hours at the kids club.Holidays are all about fabulous memories and I look forward to being able to build memoires with you. Every detail is important and every holiday we build will be to your requirements so that your holidays meet and exceed your expectations. I will be there with you for the journey and at hand to assist with your requirements pre, during & post holiday.I sincerely look forward to meeting you helping to make you travel dreams come true.

Hello, I'm Liz, your local independent travel expert based in leafy Beckenham, on the borders of South London and Kent. My passion for travel started a very long time ago when my first ever job was selling Spanish package holidays. I’ve never lost that desire, that passion, for seeing and experiencing the world at large. Now, a few decades later, I am living that dream and helping my customers to explore and discover the world.My personal passion is African safari, I think it’s the sounds and smells of the bush that really get under my skin and I’m so happy planning a safari trip for a client. I love to talk about it to anyone who will care to listen. But not everyone is keen to explore the bush. Whatever your preference, I am here to help and advise and share my personal travel experiences with you. I work from a home office so I’m available to discuss your trip when it's most convenient for you and not restricted by office hours. I do home visits to suit your hours and can also be found meeting clients in the numerous local coffee bars (when we’re allowed), talking holidays over a latte.That initial chat is the most important step towards the perfect holiday. I need to spend time getting to know you so that I can craft the perfect itinerary or destination holiday for you and your family or group. My clients' travel adventures are too varied to mention them all but include dozens of African safaris, motor home tours of the Rockies in Canada, luxury tours from north to south of India, or barefoot paradise honeymoons in the islands of the Indian Ocean or Pacific islands. Skiing holidays, the Northern Lights, Antarctic cruises, the Galapagos Islands, or the Ashes in Australia, the possibilities are endless. I will cater for your every need and will do my best to help with special requests that just aren't available on-line; adjoining rooms? cruise cabin near a lift? saltwater pool? short walk to bars and restaurants? gluten free menus? …. we'll do our best.I do pride myself on attention to detail; from that first meeting through to your return home and all points in between, creating memories that last a lifetime. Call me and let’s talk holidays.

Hello, I am Jason and I am based in Pontefract, although most people know me from my time living in Driffield. It doesn't really matter where you are based, as I have clients based all over the UK that call on me to help them when planning their next trip.I have been working in travel for 20 years and as such have a really varied knowledge from my time working on the high street and at UK airports, before starting my own business in 2014 with Travel Counsellors.Working from home, I have the time to create your bespoke package to anywhere in the world and specialise in multi-centre, complex itineraries using my wealth of trusted suppliers. I have visited lots of destinations, but my stand out memories are of being in Australia in the Blue Mountains, and my drive along the coast of California from San Francisco down to Los Angeles. I have recently enjoyed a visit to Vietnam taking in Halong Bay and an amazing Mekong river cruise.I am a passionate cruise specialist and have sailed on over 40 cruises with various different cruise lines and river cruise lines, so why not let me plan your next voyage. I can advise you on the best position of cabin to suit your needs. Through my contacts in the industry, I will always try and secure any upgrades that may be available as well.I love the UK too and think this is often overlooked as a brilliant destination. But my dream trip on my wish list is definitely to do Canada and the Rocky Mountaineer - I love my holidays by rail!I am passionate about customer service and this was my main reason for joining Travel Counsellors, as we both put our customers at the heart of everything we do. I think attention to detail is very important and something that cannot be achieved in a busy high street agency or call centre. I don't like treating people as a number or name on a target sheet!I love being able to provide a personalised experience to suit each individual client at any time, night or day. I am always here to answer any question you may have, or address any issue. Where else would you be so looked after?Everything you book with me is 100% financially protected against supplier failure by either ATOL or the Travel Counsellors Trust, giving you peace of mind. It is the best financial protection in the industry - every penny you spend with me is safe.So if you need any more information please give me a call or e-mail with your enquiry and I will respond immediately.

I specialise in getting to know and understanding exactly what my clients want, so I can then provide a great and memorable holiday experience. Many of my clients have returned year after year, trusting me to craft their perfect holiday. Some want to relax and take time out to recharge, whilst others want to push their limits and seek out that next challenge or bucket list adventure, and anything else in between.I've been passionate about travel since the age of 17, when I first stepped into the world of tourism, discovering a love for helping others plan their dream getaways. This early passion grew into a career that has spanned over fifteen years, during which I managed and worked for various high street travel agencies with multi-million-pound turnovers. My own travel experiences have greatly enriched my understanding of what makes a trip truly special. I’ve explored everything from the pristine beaches of the Caribbean to the lush landscapes of Hawaii. Now, I’m preparing for an adventure of a lifetime – climbing Mount Kilimanjaro, followed by a safari through the stunning landscapes of Tanzania, Africa. This journey is just the latest in a long line of adventures that have fuelled my love for discovering new places and cultures.Several years ago, I had the incredible opportunity to take a sabbatical and spend just under a year traveling with my husband and two children, visiting over 15 countries. We spent a month soaking in the rich culture and natural beauty of Sri Lanka before moving on to explore Southeast Asia, including Singapore, Cambodia ,Vietnam and Indonesia. After Australia, we then embarked on a three-month road trip across New Zealand in a camper van, which remains one of the most memorable experiences of my life. Our journey back home took us two months through the paradise islands of Fiji and then onto the vibrant streets of Japan in blossom season.With a wealth of personal travel experiences and professional expertise, I am passionate about sharing my knowledge and helping others embark on their own unique adventures.

Hey! Travelling is in my blood, it has always piqued my interest and from an early age, my fascination in aircrafts and anything aviation became an obsession. My dream become a reality when I started what turned out to be a 17-year career in Aviation. A career which led to me working in various European locations as I fully embraced the “travel bug.” In 2007 I took the plunge by grabbing my backpack and heading to the shores of Australia, New Zealand and SE Asia. This adventure opened my eyes to a whole new world of diverse cultures, attitudes, celebrations, and people. In 2014 the opportunity for my family to move to Singapore came up and without hesitation we packed up our life and were soon living in the little Red Dot. The beauty with “travel” is that plans can change in a heartbeat, and our 2-year plan turned in to 10 years of living in the Lion City of Singapore. Here I continued my love of travel where I soaked up experiences in Cambodia, Thailand Vietnam, Indonesia, Philippines, Hong Kong, Maldives, Malaysia, and many more hidden gems. As a Travel Counsellor I want to share my love of discovery and experiences with other people, so that they too can embrace the true beauty of what is within our reach and to be captivated by our weird and wonderful world. Let me take you on an adventure. Jen“The world is a book, and those who do not travel read only a page.” -Saint Augustine

First of all, hello, and thank you for visiting my personal page!From a young age, I had an overriding desire to visit new places and absorb fresh experiences. The maps adorning my bedroom wall, the Bill Bryson and Lonely Planet guide books filling my shelves, and the growing collection of stamps in my passport were all evidence of this. It was inevitable that my future career path would lead me around the world in the travel, tourism and hospitality industries.My previous roles; working overseas as a holiday representative, as a high street travel agent, as a restaurant and hotel owner, and event coordinator; have all ensured my knowledge and understanding of travel, tourism and customer service are second to none. I am a firm believer that each one of us is different and each one of us has varying needs, wants and desires when it comes to our travel arrangements. My aim is to ensure that I meet these needs and desires by knowing you personally and taking the time to understand what you want and expect, and then exceeding your expectations. That’s why I’m proud to be a Travel Counsellor, because to me ‘It’s personal’.My personal travel choices are sporadic and unpredictable; I thrive on mixing it up! I equally enjoy relaxing holidays in the Caribbean, island hopping around Greece, skiing holidays in the Pyrenees, cruises in the Med, city breaks around Europe, weekends away in the Lake District, once in a lifetime trips to Australia, F1 and other sporting events or festivals and much more besides. So I’m perfectly positioned to offer and advice and support, whatever your travel preferences.As a Travel Counsellor I am completely impartial with no ties or contracts, if you’ve heard of it I can book it. That goes for accommodation, transport, excursions or experiences, but with the added bonus of being able to take advantage of the amazing agreements, fares and relationships that Travel Counsellors has with suppliers. You can also be safe in the knowledge that your hard earned money is 100% secured, either through the Travel Counsellors Financial Trust or ATOL.So let me take care of your all your travel needs, from start to finish, use my time and hard work, let me endure the ‘hassle’, to ensure you experience the very best, I’m here and ready, at a time and place that’s convenient for you!I look forward to hearing from you very soon.

I believe that travelling is educational and I've certainly learned a lot from going back to basics with a rucksack, through to five-star luxury holidays.Now I am proud to offer an even more personal, dedicated service with full ATOL protection and complete financial security in these post COVID-19 times, specialising in corporate travel.Clients tell me that they appreciate my friendly, ‘nothing’s too much trouble’ nature and my original, intelligent approach to booking.Since 2012 I have focused on corporate travel, managing successful travel teams in Cambridge & London, including the formation of new homeworking teams around the UK, and the formation of a high-end agency in Mayfair. I have worked with some of my clients for over a decade as well as constantly finding new and exciting travel programmes to be involved with thanks to their referrals. I have arranged travel programmes for sole traders through to multi-million-pound global corporations.With my knowledge of airlines and routes paired with access to a broad spectrum of fares, both corporate and leisure, I will always be able to find the best solution for you or your traveller. I can help you monitor your travel spend by sharing regular financial reports and can also provide regular review meetings to provide greater insight into your travel programme.

Hi, my name is Jo Gardiner and I am an independent travel agent from Oxted, Surrey.I joined Travel Counsellors because I want my clients to benefit from the highest possible levels of personal service and independent travel advice which the company firmly believes in. I have 36 years’ experience working in retail and business travel and have travelled extensively around the world. As your personal Travel Counsellor I can use our award winning technology and my expertise to tailor the right holiday to suit your individual needs, whether it’s a fortnight in the sun, a city break or an African adventure. Often this means I can build you a bespoke holiday and save you money!Many people are still not aware that most high street agents are only able to sell a limited number of tour operators. Here at Travel Counsellors we are completely independent and this enables me to really offer you the best choices while benefiting from the buying power of being part of such a large company.I know that not everyone is free to discuss their travel arrangements during working hours. You will be able to contact me at a time convenient to you, when most other travel agencies are unavailable including evenings and weekends.Taking care of even the smallest detail is what makes our service so unique. All clients will benefit from a personal, professional service from the comfort of their own home. If you would like any information or simply an informal chat about your future travel plans, I would be delighted to assist you.

It was a much -loved , and fulfilling role but as life has evolved, I have returned to my passion- the travel industry ! There is nothing I love more than researching and imagining faraway shores ,distant dreams and endless possibilities. The need to explore and experience the world is in my heart and bones .Over the years, I have experienced short get aways, staycations, city breaks, family ,multi-generational, young at heart and group holidays. Disney, long haul, luxury and budget escapes- I have travelled far and wide and some of my favourite destinations are Switzerland, Thailand, Caribbean, Bermuda, Florida, Ibiza , Skiathos and closer to home-Cornwall. When I'm not travelling, I love to spend time walking my energetic Boxer dog, cycling, fitness, visiting thrilling theme parks and socialising with family and friends. I like to ski, Bridget Jones style! I have planned multiple family ski trips , knowing only too well the 'ups and downs' of a ski holiday with little ones in tow!The award winning reputation for going above and beyond, the 'no ifs or buts' policy , 100% financial protection with TC trust and ATOL licensing for peace of mind , was a calling -I just had to become a Travel Counsellor!

It’s easy as we travel by ferry and even Lenny our Lab comes along! This year we went to Normandy for the first week and then travelled down to the Loire Valley for our second week.

The Loire Valley, renowned for its Chateaux’s, beautiful scenery and Rose Wine is a favourite of ours. Our Italian Adventure in October which saw us exploring Pisa, Florence, Lucca, and Siena and then a train down to Rome. We had an amazing time, fabulous food and locals and was great to fit so much in.This year we have Thailand to look forward to, we are visiting the North this time, rich in culture and traditions we're hoping to see another side of Thailand. Then in the summer the girls and I are off on our first cruise around Scandinavia! I've enjoyed visiting many cruise ships over the last couple of years and did cruise many moons ago but so much has changed, we are very much looking forward to it.I absolutely love hearing from you and helping you create wonderful memories.

Hi, I'm Grant - welcome to my webpage!I have 25 years' experience working within the travel industry, working for a well known UK travel brand. I started my career in Kensington, London, before relocating to the Nottingham area nearly 15 years ago. I have worked particularly in the field of First and Business Class travel, but am well versed in arranging all types of travel arrangements, individually building holidays for clients to all corners of the globe.My passion for travel has always been there from a young age, when my uncle who worked in the airline industry used to tell us tales of his travels around the world... his adventures struck a chord with me that never left. I set of on a journey around the world in 1999 which was to last nearly two years, and included over 50 countries with countless experiences - from snowmobiling in Norway, watching golden eagles swoop into Lake Dal in Kashmir, India at sunset, then sitting in Olympic Stadium during the Sydney 2000 Olympic Games.I have experienced so many different types of holiday, including several cruises, group tours, individual touring, motorhome holidays, beach holidays, which I think gives me a great insight into the holidays my clients are planning. My service includes visa advice for the countries you plan to visit, along with information on immunisations.My mission is to constantly exceed the expectations of my clients, be it arranging a meal on a mountaintop in Oman, or a special anniversary dinner at an underwater restaurant in the Maldives - nothing is too much trouble.I live in Castle Donington, Derbyshire, with my wife (who I met in Fiji 25 years ago during my travels...) and two children aged 15 and 13 years. My kids also now have the travel bug - in 2014 we took them to Australia for a month, where they had a magical time, getting around on planes, trains, boats, bikes... and even a helicopter on the Great Barrier Reef.So, whether you are looking for a short break to one the great European capitals, a cruise in the Caribbean, a trip on the Orient Express, relaxing on a beach in Mauritius, or the trip of a lifetime around Australia, please get in touch.I look forward to hearing from you - feel free to contact me during office hours or in the evening, at a time that suits you.

Always happy to chat travel…over the phone or we can have a cuppa.I got the travel bug from a young age and have worked as an agent and also overseas.

I also frequently visit Asia, often en-route to Australia, and enjoyed experiencing the different cultures in Myanmar and Thailand; and a fly drive in South Africa left me wanting to see more of this vast country.

Hi everyone!I’m a Travel Counsellor based in Exeter, Devon in the UK.I have grown-up children. We’ve spent most of the last fifteen years in the Middle East, where my husband works, and have used both that region as well as our home in the UK as our starting and finishing point for international travel.I’ve been in the travel business for many years and previously ran my own travel website, helping clients to enjoy the best destinations available worldwide. I pride myself on my ability to communicate with people and helping them to share my enthusiasm for optimising their travel experience with the right choice of destination. Advice on how to do that cost-effectively and without loss of quality is a vital part of my service.One of my personal favourite destinations is the Caribbean. What a place! Sun, sea, sand, great attractions, both day and night, and lovely people. People who have honed to a fine art the ability to extend genuine friendliness and a welcoming way to tourists visiting their lovely tranquil countries and idyllic tropical islands.I love my work as a Travel Counsellor. The satisfaction that comes from being able to advise my clients about how to get the best from their holiday aspirations is obviously a great feeling. At the same time, however, I’m aware of the great responsibility which rests on my shoulders when seeking to ensure that disappointment isn’t an option. Most people only have a few weeks a year to get away from it all and they want to spend their hard-earned cash on the best leisure experience they can possibly get. The number of clients who have returned to me again and again has given me confidence that I must be doing something right!I’m also proud and pleased to announce that my daughter, Sophie, has now joined me in the business and is looking forward to helping me to help you even more efficiently. She’ll be doing her bit to ensure your experience from initial enquiry to your completion of a wonderful vacation is as smooth and carefree as possible.So, if you want to make the world your oyster, from cruises to sun and beach destinations, or skiing and more adventurous holidays all over the world, contact me (and Sophie!) so we can get together to get it right.“To travel is to live” – Hans Christian Andersen

South Africa is my number one long haul destination - again for the friendly locals, the scenery and the fantastic safari opportunities.I will go that one step further to make sure an accommodation or destination will suit my customers needs so they come back HAPPY! Nothing gives me greater satisfaction than a happy customer!So I hope to hear from you soon.

Sheila here....or Sparkles to many!I’ve been a travel professional for over 30 years and am a self-professed ‘old school’ agent, based near Sudbury, Suffolk.You'll be pleased to know that I have evolved from the tea making/brochure stamping trainee to a travel industry veteran!I of course love to travel...well, go on holiday, there is a difference! But 'holidaying' is right up there with my love of soul music, and my very unguilty pleasure of Rick Astley!I have a revolving door to the Caribbean, having visited more than 80 times and being recognised as an official St Lucia specialist by their tourist board.However, I am an 'all-rounder' and committed to finding the perfect fit for your travel plans, no matter to which corner of the globe, selling a wide range of destinations and refusing to book with suppliers that don’t meet my high standards of customer service.My best piece of travel advice? Book with me... and definitely split your luggage equally between cases!I look forward to speaking with you soon...
