It's Nice To Meet You
Hi, I’m Katie, a Gold Travel Counsellor based in Macclesfield, Cheshire.
Thank you for taking the time to view my webpage, I would be delighted to offer my services as your personal travel consultant.
I have worked in the travel industry for 30 years and my extensive knowledge and experience means that I provide a friendly, personal and professional service with expert advice and guidance. Travel is a huge part of my family’s life and I have been fortunate enough to visit over 60 countries and make memories to last a lifetime. Highlights include a tiger safari in India, a helicopter trip over Table Mountain in South Africa, learning to dive on the Great Barrier Reef, and driving the Pacific Highway 1 along the California coast. I now have 2 young children and enjoy taking them to new destinations and experiencing new cultures. We have recently travelled to Thailand and the kids highlight was a jungle adventure with elephants - memories and experiences they will keep forever and it's safe to say they have the travel bug too!
My expertise and passion for travel will prove invaluable to your plans. I will take the time to fully understand your needs and I will create a unique holiday experience, tailored just for you. I will ensure all the finer details are covered to provide you with unforgettable memories of your own ensuring a stress-free experience for all your travel needs. As an independent consultant I can offer you a level of choice and exceptional customer service that cannot be matched on the high street or online plus you can enjoy the peace of mind of our unique financial trust, which protects every single penny of your booking. No other travel company can provide this level of financial protection.
I look forward to helping you plan your trip, whether that's a weekend city break in Europe, your dream honeymoon, that well-earned family holiday, skiing in the Alps, a stunning beach getaway to the Maldives, or that once in a lifetime trip you have been dreaming of - let me do all the hard work for you and show you what a Personal Travel Counsellor can do!

Travel counsellors , especially Katie have been fantastic with the booking of our holiday and a previous holiday. All my questions were quickly answered and requests to add or amend things were also given attention quickly. It is very easy to contact them if needed with any questions or support required. A superb company that puts the customer first all the time, every time

Katie is absolutely fantastic to work with to book our corporate travel requirements. She is super efficient and always on hand to help out with any issues we may have when planes get cancelled etc. Katie understands the budgets we work with so always suggests competitive cost options on travel, accommodation etc. Would highly recommend Katie to anyone who is looking for support with booking trips.

Katie has been amazing! We were booking a last minute holiday and felt we’d given the task of the impossible with what we wanted/the budget we had. However Katie came back with some really good suggestions and great prices! I will definitely be sending on her details and using her to book our future holidays!

This is the second time we've used Katie, and have found her to be efficient, a good communicator and patient. Most of all, she makes you feel like you're her only client.

From the moment we met Katie until we completed the arrangements for our extended trip she has been a truly wonderful source of wisdom and advice. Furthermore, she is extremely professional as well as being very warm and friendly which we really appreciate. We are looking forward to our holiday in December.

Raising 2 Travellers
06 June 2019
The experts agree: your children can, and should, be explorers. I have travelled extensively from an early age, I love adventures and seeking out new places and want my children to be the same. They are very fortunate and have travelled to the Caribbean, Dubai, Thailand and Mauritius as well as France, Portugal and Spain. The holidays were planned so that they were easy, relaxing and fun for ever
Hottest ticket at Sea
02 April 2019
What a privilege to be invited to one of the hottest ship launches of the year, to say I was excited would be an understatement! Along with some fellow Travel Counsellors, lots of travel industry representatives and a few celebs I boarded the MSC Bellissima in Southampton to check out this incredible ship #beautyatsea. As soon as I was welcomed on board, I could see why she had been named Belliss
Cruise Virgin

I have been in the industry for over 20 years and travelled extensively but have never felt the urge to board a huge ‘crowded’ ship and sail the oceans. Even after specialising in cruise holidays in a previous job, doing many ship visits and training courses, meeting with suppliers and getting excellent feedback from my clients, who all absolutely love it, it just never appealed - but something re

Long haul adventures with my young family
18 May 2018
I love exploring new places, the excitement of experiencing new cultures, food and just not knowing what to expect. I want my children to grow up with a knowledge of the world and there is no better way to do that than experiencing it first-hand. Finding a destination that works for everyone can be tricky, but I truly believe Thailand is one of the best destinations that offers something for every
Ski Weekend in the Alps
05 March 2018
It has been seven years since I strapped myself into my boots and felt the adrenaline rush of descending the mountain side. As a special treat for my 40th, my sister and I decided it was about time I took to the mountain again after taking the long break whilst I had started my family. I have been lucky enough to have skied in both Europe and North America many times and love the skiing as much
