It's Nice To Meet You

Hello and welcome to my Travel Counsellors web page, my name is Juli and I live in Clayton-Le-Woods, Lancashire. I am married with two grown up children.

I have always loved to travel and wanted to be a travel agent since I was at school. I joined a high street travel agency not long after leaving full time education and spent twelve happy years there. I love everything about travel from the initial planning to the jetting off, reaching the destination and finally enjoying the holiday.

As well as visiting the popular destinations across Europe I have loved travelling to various other destinations including Los Angeles and New York, Africa and over to the gorgeous stunning island of Bali, a road trip around California, Nevada, and Arizona taking in the sites of Las Vegas, Grand Canyon, Death Valley, Yosemite and San Francisco - definitely a bucket list trip. I have also experienced the hustle and bustle of Hong Kong, being completely chilled on the island of Jamaica and my new favourite destination the Maldives - such a beautiful destination with so many different islands to choose from, what is not to love.

I hope that my knowledge and enthusiasm may help you plan and take your next holiday. I understand that your time is valuable and would like to take the pressure off you by searching for your perfect holiday whether this is a family trip around the UK or overseas, a cruise or a bucket list destination. I am based from my home which provides me with the flexibility to chat at a time that suits you, including evenings and weekends, so please do not hesitate in giving me a call and allow me to help you with any aspect of your travel arrangements.

Why book through Travel Counsellors? When you call you will always come direct through to me and never a call centre. I can help with booking seats, your advanced passenger information and checking you in online to help save your time. You can also have peace of mind knowing that your booking is covered by our financial trust so your money is 100% safe with us.

I look forward to helping you plan your next holiday.

We had heard good reviews about Travelcounsellors.com and started searching for someone reasonably local to us. We picked Juli and contacted her with our requirements, she responded very quickly and within a few days we'd settled on everything we wanted. Great comms with Juli and would definitely recommend to anybody wanting a hassle free booking experience.

Juli was fabulous from start to finish. She found me the holiday I wanted and within my budget. She basically took the stress of organising a holiday away from me and had everything prepared for us. She even guided us with the documentation we needed to prove regarding our immunisations. Everything was as expected and we had a thoroughly good time. Thank you Juli X

I have just booked our family holiday with Juli and I honestly couldn't recommend her enough! Yes I could've spent hours trawling through the internet to find a "bargain" but why waste time and risk not having any security? Juli had our holiday sorted for us within no time and for no effort on our part! Amazing, efficient, friendly, affordable and personal! Perfect attention to detail and the security of knowing everything has been sorted. Thank you Juli Hodson! YOU ARE AMAZING.

All hail the Queen Mary 2

03 June 2019

I recently went on a conference to Southampton where we had the privilege of visiting a couple of the ships in port, one of these being the Queen Mary 2. I must say that I am not normally a ‘boat’ person but as soon as I set foot on the beautiful ship I felt right at home. You were made to feel welcome by all the staff you met on the way. We were greeting in the terminal building by the young men

Fabulous city break

31 May 2019

Having never been to Barcelona, my husband and I decided to treat ourselves to a lovely city break. We even took our very own little TC Ted with us for an adventure. We went in April 2019, the weather was warm as long as you were in the sun, the shade of the buildings made it feel a lot cooler. We actually stayed in Calella which was just up the coast and travelled by train each day into the city

A holiday to remember in Jamaica

18 January 2019

One of my favourite destinations must be Jamaica. My husband and I went for our 25th anniversary, the first one without my children (I was worried about how my house would be went we got back). I fell in love with the beautiful country straight away. We stayed in a hotel at Negril and from the moment we got there the staff could not do enough for us and the other guests. From cleaning your sunbeds
