Let's plan your Holiday!
Hi, I'm Maria and this is my website.
I’m your Personal Travel Counsellor based in Leicestershire, and I am genuinely passionate about all things travel.
I've been a part of the Travel Counsellors family for over ten years as an assistant and now I have my own franchise. The community feeling from my fellow Travel Counsellors means that not only do you get my expertise but a wealth of knowledge from them as well.
My family and I love to Travel and we have been lucky to have experienced many countries around the world and a variety of accommodations so I can help plan your perfect trip whatever your budget.
A little about me: I have been travelling for over 20 years and in all that time I have only had one flight cancelled. Thanks to the support and “thinking outside the box” approach of Travel Counsellors, we only missed one night of our holiday. Experiencing that level of care first hand made a huge impression on me. It showed me how important it is not just to create amazing holidays, but also to make sure that if something does go wrong, you are never left feeling alone or abandoned we aren't just 9-5. There is always someone ready to help and go the extra mile. That is exactly why I became a Travel Counsellor: to offer that same reassurance and support to my own customers.
We have the myTC App for your travel Quotes, to make secure payments and keep your documentation safe.
Each Quote is personally tailored to your Holiday needs, after all it's YOUR holiday!
What I can book for you from a Huge range of suppliers: City Breaks, Honeymoons, Family Holidays, Mini UK Breaks, Cruises & River cruises, Safari, Multi centres, Weddings abroad, Ski trips or something completely bespoke, with every element including excursions/ attractions covered - All you have to do is pack your suitcase!
The world feels more accessible than ever, with so many incredible places to visit and unforgettable experiences to enjoy. Whether you are travelling solo, as a couple, with family, or as part of a group, there are options made just for you.
As a Travel Counsellor, I pride myself on offering a truly personal service. Every trip I design is tailored to you and your travelling companions, taking into account your individual needs and wishes. My aim is to help you create lasting memories with a bespoke itinerary that works perfectly for you, with the reassurance that I am available 24/7 while you are away. You can travel with confidence, knowing your holiday is fully protected.
So, the world awaits... where will you go next?
