It's Nice To Meet You
For the last thirty years I have worked in the film and TV industry organising production logistics and travel for high net worth individuals, producers, directors and actors. Having set up my travel concierge service at Travel Counsellors, I am now able to offer this service to more select individuals.
Care, attention to detail and discretion are the cornerstones of what I do. I'm rarely shocked and love a challenge. So whether you need a flight for work, a hassle-free all-inclusive with the kids, or even a private jet and a house for 20 people in Mustique, I regularly book all of that and more. You are busy and stressed doing amazing things... Let me be uptight about the details so you can relax.
Booking with Travel Counsellors brings multiple layers of financial protection via ATOL and the Travel Counsellors Trust. Travel Counsellors have 5* Trust Pilot reviews plus a game changing MyTC app allows you to view your quotes, pay for your trips securely and and then view all of your travel documents digitally. You have direct access to me at all times and I have access to a 24/7, 365 Duty Office for the rare occasion when something goes wrong. Between us we might just be able to make what seems impossible possible.

Why use a Travel Counsellor
Let's plan your dream trip together
Tailor-made for you
Your holiday isn’t just a trip away. It’s a longed-for escape, time to reconnect with loved ones, or a dream adventure you never thought possible. That’s why I take the time to truly get to know you and understand your hopes and expectations, then use my experience, connections and passion for the destination to create a trip that makes those dreams a reality.
Personalised service. Always
When you plan a holiday with me, you’ll be given my personal mobile number from the very first call. I’ll listen to your thoughts and ideas like I would a friend and arrange accommodation, activities, and flights that are all personalised to you. And I’ll share my personal tips and recommendations, so you can experience the true beauty of each destination.
Stress-free travel, and more time for what matters most
I believe your time away should be stress-free, easy, and seamless from start to finish. So, I take care of all the details for you - from ATOL protection, insurance, and flexible payments to access to the myTC app, which keeps everything in one place.
Support when it matters most
If the unexpected happens, you can rest easy, knowing that I’ll handle any last-minute changes, flight cancellations, or disruptions before you even pick up the phone. So you always feel happy, carefree, and ready to make the most of every moment.
