It's Nice To Meet You
Hello, I am Joanne, I have over 30 years' experience in the travel industry, the last ten as a Travel Counsellor. I can help with all types of holidays, every day is a new adventure from a quick break to tailor made holiday with everything in between including packages, tours, cruises, flights and tailor made itineraries. One thing you can be assured is that I will provide the same personal service each and every time.
I came into the industry because of my love of travelling and have been lucky to have visited many amazing destinations near and far over the years, some favorites are Thailand, Malaysia, Western USA, Canada and South Africa. Having a son means Florida and Mediterranean beach holidays were high on the agenda for a number of years visiting many places in Spain, Greece, Turkey, Portugal, Croatia and much more. In recent years we have ventured further afield travelling to Thailand and various parts of the USA including LA, New York, Las Vegas, Washington, Philadelphia and much of California on a road trip, amazing! I am working on becoming a California Expert! The last 2 road trips took in Cape Town and much of the Garden Route in South Africa and the Canadian Rockies in a motorhome, both were adventures never to be forgotten.
I am dedicated to ensuring your travel arrangements run smoothly. My ethos has always been to offer a friendly and professional service using my experience and a good eye for detail to ensure each and every trip you have is one to remember, take a look at my testimonials!
One huge bonus is having Travel Counsellors behind me, having a great support network in all areas can give you peace of mind you will looked after at every stage, the difficulties of recent years have given me confidence to know how to deal with all eventualities.
I would be delighted to hear from you and will be available at a time convenient to you, so get in touch for a chat and let me turn your dreams, thoughts and ideas into reality.

LA Beaches
Our second full day was planned to be much more relaxing, by heading towards the coast we knew the pace would be slower. Once again the day started overcast and a tiny bit chilly, however this would soon burn off and become a very hot and sunny day. The first call on our list was Long Beach. Driving there was not quite what I had expected, the area is very industrial as a result of the port but

Los Angeles
The direct flight from Manchester to Los Angeles with Virgin is a great choice to get you to your starting point as quickly as possible, with lots of in flight entertainment to help pass the time on the 11 hour flight. The immigration process was smooth at LAX and we were soon one our way after collecting our hire car. Our base for the next 5 nights would be the Staybridge Suites Torrance/Redo

Neilson Beachclub Fun in Croatia
It’s a number of years since we last had a Neilson holiday. We always had a fantastic time and looking for a more relaxing holiday with good sports facilities and activities for a teen we thought it would be good to return, particularly as they have added some new destinations over the last couple of years that we have not been to before. Croatia was our choice. Things have changed lots since o

Thailand
The drive from Bangkok to Hua Hin is around 2 ½ hours without a comfort stop. Once you are out of the traffic of Bangkok, the traffic flows and is pretty much dual carriageway all the way there.

The area is famous for its Royal Palace and being very popular with golfe

Bangkok July 2017
I can hardly believe it has been 18 years since we last visited Thailand and that was pre-child! My son is now a teenager and we thought the time right to explore further afield again. As a surprise, I booked us into the Escape Lounge at Manchester, nice to have a couple of glasses of prosecco to get the holiday off to a start! They have a good selection of light bites and snacks as well as dri
