About Me
Hello, I’m Katie Fallon, your dedicated Travel Counsellor, based in beautiful Cheltenham, Gloucestershire.
Ever since I boarded my very first long-haul flight to Florida with Virgin Atlantic at just 13, I knew I wanted to work in the travel industry. That journey sparked a curiosity and excitement for travel that’s never left me, inspiring a lifelong desire to help others create their own extraordinary memories.
After two fulfilling decades supporting our family business and raising my children, the time was finally right to return to my greatest passion: curating exceptional travel experiences. My journey in travel began at 17, embarking on a YTS trainee role with Going Places, then progressing through an independent agency and a tour operator. Eight inspiring years in the industry ignited my love for the world, and travel has always remained my obsession.
Over the years, I’ve been privileged to discover some of the world’s most inspiring destinations:
From iconic cities like New York and San Francisco, to wellness hideaways in the Maldives and cultural gems like Italy, Croatia, and Thailand. I’ve celebrated milestones in Barbados (where I was married and return often), marvelled at the landscapes of Iceland and New England, soaked up luxury in Dubai and Abu Dhabi, explored the wonders of Australia, Bali, Turks & Caicos, and beyond.
I’m extremely proud to partner with Travel Counsellors – a respected, award-winning travel company trusted by clients around the globe. We provide complete financial protection, 24/7 support, and a seamless digital app for managing your documentation and secure payments – with our outstanding service reflected in our top Trustpilot ratings.
What truly sets me apart is my commitment to a highly personal, one-to-one service. I specialise in creating tailor-made journeys that reflect your dreams and lifestyle, managing everything from flights, private transfers, hotels and villas, to seat selection, dietary requests, and special touches that elevate your trip. My approach is flexible and attentive: I’m available evenings and weekends, working around your schedule to ensure a seamless planning experience.
Whether you’re seeking a luxury escape, a once-in-a-lifetime adventure, or simply a hassle-free holiday, I’ll be with you every step of the way. Let’s design memories you’ll treasure forever.

To travel is to live.

Caribbean Island‑Hopping in Boutique Yacht Luxury
After booking our Emerald Sakara cruise almost two years in advance, I had plenty of time to dream about what life on a luxury yacht in the Caribbean might really be like. From the moment we parked at Heathrow and set off in Business Class, to stepping on board with a glass of fizz in hand and ending with three nights at Colony Club in Barbados, this trip was packed with special moments, a few sur

Snowy Adventures in Tromso
Tromsø is often called the “Gateway to the Arctic”, and after spending four days there in the depths of winter, I can see why. From aurora cruises and snowmobile safaris to simple walks across icy bridges, this trip was packed with moments I will never forget. In this blog, I share what we did each day, what surprised us and the little lessons we learned along the way, starting from the moment we

Fifth Time in Barbados!
My husband Carl and I set off on our fifth trip to Barbados, this time to celebrate our 20th wedding anniversary. We had married on the island, making it a deeply special place in our hearts. After a peaceful start in the Virgin Atlantic Upper Class lounge, we boarded “Miss Sunshine” for a smooth flight, complete with delicious food and a relaxing three-hour nap that made the 8-hour journey feel e

Beautiful Lake Garda
On September 20th, I embarked on a delightful 4-night getaway to Lake Garda with my mum and my youngest daughter! We kicked things off at Birmingham Airport, and after a little delay, we were soaring through the skies. Our home for the next few nights was the charming Hotel Dori in Peschiera del Garda, which made for a perfect base to explore! As soon as we walked in, a warm and friendly reception

Sicily
Last year, during our trip to the Amalfi Coast, I became really curious about what Sicily might be like. So, naturally, I jumped into planning mode! Before we knew it, I had booked us flights with BA from Heathrow to Palermo and, after a bit of research, I decided that we'd stay in the gorgeous town of Cefalù! Our flight arrived ahead of schedule, and before we knew it, we were cruising in our fa

Alluring Abu Dhabi
It was the morning of the 15th April and myself, husband Carl and daughter Laila were off to Abu Dhabi. Our journey started at London Heathrow's Terminal 4 where we checked in with Etihad. It was a smooth check in and we soon passed though security to go and enjoy a nice breakfast whilst waiting to board our flight. The flight took approximately 7 hours and we landed in Abu Dhabi at 8pm. It to

St Lucia!
I've been to Barbados four times and thought it was time to visit another Caribbean island. St Lucia has always intrigued me because it looks so different to Barbados with it's lush green mountainous landscape, its famous Pitons and volcanic beaches. On Sunday 3rd March myself, husband Carl and 17 year old daughter Laila boarded our Virgin Atlantic flight at Heathrow Terminal 3. I always book P

Winter Break in Budapest
In order to get into the festive spirit and also celebrate our 19th wedding anniversary, my husband Carl and I thought it would be wonderful to visit a European Christmas market. Budapest has always intrigued us, so we finally decided to go and spend three nights there. Our flight with British Airways from London Heathrow went smoothly, and by 1pm, we were already checked into our room at the lov

Ikos Andalucia
When I was looking for a family holiday with our 23 month old grandson Sonny, I thought Ikos Andalucia had exactly what I was looking for and I wasn’t wrong! Our journey started at Heathrow where we took a British Airways flight to Gibraltar. This may seem odd to fly into Gibraltar when we’re actually holidaying in Spain but there were two reasons. The flight was cheaper and Gibraltar Airport i

Sorrento & Capri
Having visited Sorrento for my sisters wedding six years ago, I was always desperate to return! The short 2 ½ hour flight from Heathrow to Naples with British Airways took us over the Swiss Alps and down over Italy. Be sure to sit on the left hand side of the aircraft to enjoy the view of Mount Vesuvius as you approach Naples Airport. We were met by our transfer driver who took us to our hotel

Divine Dubrovnik
I’d never been to Croatia before so really didn’t know what to expect. The lush green hills which surrounded Dubrovnik airport took me by surprise. We were greeted by our driver and taken to Hotel Kompas in Lapad, which took about 30 minutes. Along the way, our driver told us all about the history of Dubrovnik and Croatia and how they rebuilt the city after the terrible war back in the 1990’s.

One & Only Royal Mirage Dubai
Dubai, the city which keeps luring us back! Easter 23 was our eighth time in Dubai. This time, we stayed for six nights at the One & Only Royal Mirage Palace. On previous visits, we had always dreamt of staying at the One & Only one day. We used to look at it from the Westin next door and think one day we will stay there! The hotel is on another level to other hotels we’ve stayed at in Dubai
