It's Nice To Meet You

Travel is in my blood and something I am very passionate and knowledgeable about. Since taking my first flight at the age of six weeks old to West Africa, I have continued over the years to explore the different continents of this remarkable and fascinating world we live in.

Having children has not put me off and in recent years, we have taken our young family on a road trip up the West Coast of Australia, explored the rainforests and coast of Costa Rica, seen turtles hatching in Oman, experienced safari in the wilds of Tanzania and the beautiful beaches of Zanzibar, the incredible scenery and culture of Sri Lanka, to name just a few holidays.

I hold a degree in International Tourism Management and have worked for two leading worldwide airlines in both Sales and Marketing roles, as well as worked as a Business Travel consultant and Sales Manager for a major city’s Convention and Visitor Bureau.

Bespoke personal service is of the utmost importance to me and I have a proven track record for offering customers excellent service with that added personal touch. I am available anytime to discuss your travel requirements whether you are looking for a bespoke tour, villa holiday, skiing, cruise, flight only, accommodation, a weekend city break. Nothing is too much!

With Travel Counsellors up to the minute technology, I have access to all those holidays available online or in an high street agency plus much more and I will work with you to go above and beyond, to make sure you get the perfect holiday you are looking for, that exceeds your expectations.

If you are ready to plan that next holiday adventure, please call me today.

I look forward to hearing from you and working with you.

What my customers say

Absolutely amazing service from Katharine. Every last detail was thought of for our trip to Mauritius even including organising a cake at the hotel for my birthday!!! She has also just organised another trip for us and we are equally as satisfied. We won’t be using any other service besides yours.

Katharine has been so incredibly patient with us in the search for our holiday, with us changing our minds on dates and places to go numerous times! We really have been the nightmare clients but Katharine has come up trumps and we are so looking forward to our holiday at the end of the month. It looks absolutely perfect!

Warm and friendly, Katharine listened carefully to our requirements, and has booked us a holiday we are really looking forward to. She kept within the budget I gave her and came back with three very appealing options. She took all the stress and hassle out of sourcing a holiday, and I’m very grateful.

We are home and the holiday was amazing - Iceland is the most fantastic country! Thanks for all your help. Everything was so smooth and went like clockwork... The hotel was great. All the transport so efficient and the tours were breathtaking. We got to see the Northern Lights (better on camera than with the naked eye!) and the other sights (Blue Lagoon, waterfalls, glacier, black sand beach and everything else) were all out of this world! Thanks for everything. It was a fantastic holiday and we'll definitely book through you again!

Katharine was truly fantastic. We haven't used a travel agent since our Honeymoon, preferring to trawl the internet for options and deals. With 3 children, 2 full-time jobs, 1 Grandparent joining us and seemingly 0 spare minutes in the day, a holiday has never been more needed or harder to organise. I talked Katharine through our ideal holiday and she responded very quickly with four fabulous options, including flights, transfers and hotels. It hugely helped having her knowledge of the resorts, facilities and flight options. Instead of mapping endless options of hotels, flight and transport, Katharine expertly narrowed it down and sent through the best possible fit for our family. We simply had to chose the itinerary we liked best and voila, it was booked. Partnering with Katharine was the best decision we could have made and having the holiday booked within a few days prompted a spring in all of our steps.

Just to say thank you so much for organizing such a lovely holiday. We had a great time and saw a good cross section of New Zealand. We will have many happy memories from this holiday.

I can highly recommend Katharine. She has a wealth of travel knowledge and is a pleasure to deal with. We were unsure of exactly where we wanted to go, so she helpfully put together several ideas of destinations and hotels within our budget. We finally chose Malaysia and were delighted with the hotels she recommended. We were really pleased with the rates she secured and the whole process was so straight forward. So much easier than trailing through Trip Advisor reviews! We will definitely use Katharine for our next trip.

We've just returned home from a holiday in Oman booked by Katharine at Travel Counsellors and we were all incredibly impressed with their professionalism, the package they put together and also the price they were able to negotiate! A few things as example - we were told by other well known travel companies that there were no return flights on the day we wanted to come back, and yet Travel Counsellors were somehow able to do this. We also wanted interconnecting rooms at the hotel we were staying in which - due to the late booking - we were told by others that this wouldn't be available, and again Travel Counsellors were able to do this. The level of service was fantastic - to the point of checking us in to flights too - very impressed and will certainly do this again. Thankyou Katharine!

Thank you, Katharine, for all that you did to save our family-moon. Scheduled to go to Indonesia a week before the earthquake struck, Katharine was a friendly, calming and reassuring voice at the other end of the phone. She responded very quickly to all correspondence and was able to not only deal with cancelling all the relevant components of our previous holiday but her excellent travel knowledge enabled her to come up with a selection of exciting new packages to choose from very promptly. Budget requirements were listened to and lots of thought went into creating a perfect special holiday for us and our two young children within a very short time-frame. Katharine took away the stress and hassle of searching for flights, accommodation and transfers and we felt we were in a very trusted and capable pair of hands.
