It's Nice To Meet You

Hi, my name is Linda and, for 30 years, I have been providing my clients with specialist advice and planning holidays they will never forget. My clients come back again and again because they value the personal service, attention to detail and the hassle-free experience I provide them with every time they have a trip to arrange.

I have travelled to numerous places myself, Canada being one of my favourite countries for the sheer beauty and size. Sri Lanka and the Maldives are another firm favourites. South Africa, Thailand, Malaysia including Borneo to see Oran Utans. I have also travelled extensively in Europe, the Greek Islands being a firm favourite there.

I am passionate about my job. I really enjoy doing a complicated itinerary for someone whether its to New Zealand, Australia Canada, South Africa or anywhere, I research everything so my clients receive competitive quotes from reliable suppliers. Along with my personal bespoke service to ensure their holiday goes without a hitch.

I am at the end of the phone should you have a problem whilst you are away, so you have peace of mind, knowing I am available at any time.

You could book all the elements yourself - but if you don’t want to spend hours on the internet, phone or in the travel agents and you want the reassurance of total financial protection. Why not try giving me a call about your next trip? Call me on 01753 202920 and let me take away the pain of planning and the risk of getting it wrong.

Beautiful Meeru Island

Beautiful Meeru Island

After a hectic trip round Sri Lanka, a week in the Maldives is the perfect combination. Only an hours flight from Colombo to Male and the tiny airport is right by the ferry port. We did not have long to wait before we were escorted to our ferry for our 55-minute trip to Meeru Island in the North Ari Atol. We chose this island as we felt it was a perfect size. Not too small where we might get b

The beauty of Sri Lanka

The beauty of Sri Lanka

I have been selling the island of Sri Lanka for about 25 years now, and finally decided to visit myself. I am so glad I did, what a wonderful country! We decided to tour with a private car and driver as I am not good on coaches. Our driver met us at Colombo airport and drove us to Bentota, about two hours’ drive away for an overnight stop. This was purely to break the journey down to Yala NP. W

Gran Canaria

Gran Canaria

I recently enjoyed a trip to Gran Canaria, an island I have never visited. We flew out to Gran Canaria, where the journey from the airport to our hotel in Maspalomas took about 25 minutes. We stayed at the Seaside Hotel Palm Beach. This is a 5* hotel between Maspalomas and Melonaras . It is in an excellent location, right on a promenade where you can walk to the town. There is a large choice of ba

Northern Lights

Northern Lights

I am sure most of us have a 'Bucket List' and on mine was a trip to see the Northern Lights. As this year was supposed to be one of the best years to actually see this phenomenon, my husband and I decided it was now or never. There are many ways to view the Lights, most people opt for a cruise, but I wanted to make sure that we had the very best opportunity to see them so decided on a land based

Alaska Cruise

Alaska Cruise

As it was a 'special' birthday for me this year, I wanted to do something memorable. After a great deal of discussion with my husband, it was agreed that we would do an Alaskan Cruise. I can honestly say it was an amazing experience. We flew to Seattle for an overnight stay. We chose Celebrity Millenium, as this was giving us the dates we wanted and I had cruised on her before, so knew the sh

Magical Malaysia

Magical Malaysia

I had always wanted to travel to Malaysia, and when some very good friends of ours mentioned they also wanted to go, that was enough for me to make the decision and not to put it off any longer. We travelled from Heathrow to Kuala Lumpar and from there took a connecting flight to Langkawi. We decided that this was going to be a twin centre and we would have a week in Langkawi and a week in Borneo

The Rockies  Canada

The Rockies Canada

Western Canada, and the Rockies in particular is one of my favourite destinations. To celebrate our Silver Wedding Anniversary I planned a self drive trip across from Calgary to Vancouver Island. We had been before, so I planned a slightly different route this time. One place I did not want to miss though was Lake Louise. The pictures you see of this beautiful place do not do it justice. Just to s

Linda is a professional, who knows her job. She is fun and friendly and always there for you, which is a great asset to have. She answers queries immediately and will notify any changes or things that need to be done earlier than stated. Thank you Lin.

Wendy Cox

Winscombe

Lin was totally invaluable to us given the issues we encountered on this trip (which were absolutely nothing to do with her). She went above and beyond to help us sort out a difficult situation, in a place where the administration difficulties were elevated beyond the norm.

Ian Willis

Over Wallop

This was my first experience of using a travel councillor to help me book a holiday. I'm not overly confident in booking holidays over the internet but I am extremely pleased that I was introduced to Linda. She was extremely helpful and managed to 'sort' a holiday for me and my husband on the date and destination that was our first choice. Linda obviously has a wealth of knowledge regarding holidays and resorts and this shone through whilst we were talking. I would recommend her to friends and relations with the confidence that they would not find fault with anything that she does. I might add also that it was great to be able to talk to someone rather than just press buttons on a computer and then panic that you might have done domething wrong!! Linda we will definitely call you again. Jan & Rob Giles.

Janet Giles

Linda is one of those people you must have in your life, where Travel is concerned. She is professional, competent, really friendly and works hard to deliver your holiday. There is one thing that stands out though, her always being there for you in an emergency. Thank You Linda

Wendy Cox

Winscombe

Great service as always and going that extra mile

Natalie Paris

Waltham Abbey

Personally I would award Linda 100 out of 10 !!!! On a serious note it has been a devastating time for us not being able to visit our family in New Zealand. By the time we get to see our grandchildren 3 years would have passed. Linda has been very supportive listening to my frustration and kept an eye on things Promising to let us know as soon as flights became available.We can't really put into words what this means to us How can you put a score on that . True to her word this is what she did and we booked last week !!
