It's Nice To Meet You

I’m Michelle, based in Buckinghamshire near Leighton Buzzard, where I live with my partner Steve and our very pampered Bengal cat, Raj (Chief Feline Officer and professional suitcase tester).

Travel has been part of my life for as long as I can remember — my first trip abroad was at just two years old, and I’ve been hooked ever since. Over the years I’ve lived and worked overseas and explored everywhere from Andorra to Zanzibar (and many wonderful places in between).

What I love most about my job is getting to know you — your stories, your wish lists, your “one day” trips, and the little details that make a holiday truly special. I’m naturally a planner and a researcher, and I genuinely enjoy crafting trips that fit you perfectly.

I don’t just book holidays — I design tailored travel experiences. Whether it’s a big celebration, a once-in-a-lifetime adventure, or a much-needed escape, I take the time to understand exactly what you want and build a trip around you.

Life is busy, and that’s where I come in. I save you time, remove the stress, and handle the details so you can focus on the excitement. I work flexibly around you, not just standard office hours, because travel planning shouldn’t feel like a chore squeezed into your day.

As a Travel Counsellor, I’m an independent business owner backed by a global, award-winning company. That means expert support, trusted suppliers, and 100% financial protection — complete peace of mind for you and your investment.

From UK breaks to Mediterranean sunshine, bucket-list safaris to tailor-made long-haul journeys, I’d love to help bring your plans to life.

If you have a trip in mind — or even just the beginnings of an idea — let’s chat.

Trusted Travel, Tailored for You.

My customer stories

Sent by Karen Gower

I would Michelle a give a score of 20 if I could. The service was absolutely amazing and so professional. I would most definitely recommend her to everyone. She made the process so easy and seamless. Thank you.

Michelle met with us to understand our likes and dislikes and what we were aiming to get out of the holiday. She then curated a bespoke package and worked on tweaking this to suit our specific asks. Nothing was too much trouble and Michelle really knew the location which helped her understand and plan the best holiday package for us personally!

Thank you very much for organising our holiday in Feb/March 2026 . We had a fabulous time based in Phuket Thailand. We managed the whole holiday scenario which suited us-Beach, Golf, Tourism and some great local food. The fact that USA/Israel declared war on Iran whilst we were there had a massive impact on our travel plans with most flights going through ME airports affected by drone and rocket attacks , closing them to flights which affected our return. Throughout, you remained calm and in contact with us in Thailand and were a constant source of encouragement and kept us up to date with the travel situation. You also managed somehow to book us a change flight and route to avoid the war area so that we were able to return home safely. I could not recommend you and your service highly enough.

Michelle was really helpful. We wanted a week in Thessaloniki and she found us flights and transfers and booked these and the hotel of our choice. She found a competitive price too. We are really looking forward to our visit. Thank you. I am now planning a couple more trips and will ask her advice on these and will use her again.

Michelle was absolutely amazing, found my perfect holiday and was so helpful. Normally my husband books everything, I wanted to surprise him for his birthday. Michelle took me through everything step by step, so informative and made me feel calm and that my custom was important.

Oh wow, I mean wow. Our four-stop city break/safari/beach holiday for my family of 5 (kids age 16, 19 & 20) was arranged by Michelle Bailey from Travel Counsellors and we were all absolutely blown away. Michelle took on board ALL our ideas and put together a package which ran like clockwork and was within our budget. From an apartment in Dubai including a dune safari in the desert, a two-stop Tanzanian safari in the mountains and on a deserted white beach, both in jaw-dropping fabulous lodges with views to die for, all wrapped up with a week beside the Indian Ocean in Zanzibar. Michelle even checked us in on all 4 flights, such was the service we received. She was on hand to help with everything pre-adventure (visas, insurance, luggage recommendations) as well as always being there throughout the trip should we need her (thankfully we didn't as it had been meticulously organised by Michelle). She was superb and we all highly recommend her. Michelle made a once-in-a-lifetime family adventure holiday perfect in every way.

I had a vision for my Reykjavik trip and told Michelle and she then organised the whole holiday. I honestly couldn’t have asked for anything more, it was so easy for me, I just followed her itinerary and it was a fabulous trip. I will definitely recommend and I will also ask Michelle to organise any future trips. Thank you!

Michelle was very professional and knowledgeable in booking my trip. I would highly recommend her and will definitely be using her services again.

Super fast, friendly, tailored service!

Michelle has been extremely helpful and efficient and has sorted out our break in an stress-free and timely manner. I couldn’t have wished for a better service.

Sent by Kathryn Hanson

Michelle made booking a holiday a pleasure, cutting out the usual looking on the Internet and not finding what you want! Hassle free and super efficient, would 100% recommend her services.
