It's Nice To Meet You
Hello, I’m Michelle, your personal Travel Counsellor based in Wickford, Essex.
Travel has been my passion for as long as I can remember. Even at school I knew I wanted to work in the travel industry: the idea of discovering new destinations, cultures and experiences was simply irresistible. Over 20 years on, that same excitement is still there every time I help a client plan their next escape.
I am also a specialist in Disney holidays, with first‑hand experience across multiple magical trips. I have visited Disneyland Paris several times, enjoyed unforgettable stays at Walt Disney World in Orlando and have sailed on a Disney Cruise aboard the Disney Fantasy. This means I can offer practical, tried‑and‑tested advice on everything from choosing the right resort and dining options to park planning and those extra special touches that make a Disney holiday truly memorable.
Across my career I have been fortunate enough to visit some incredible destinations and stay in a variety of remarkable hotels. A real highlight was my time working with Sandals and Beaches, when I joined an educational trip to Jamaica. In just five days we visited all of their resorts: from sipping premium cocktails and relaxing by the pool to enjoying the luxury of my own butler for the day, it was a trip I will never forget.
I can help with every kind of trip: a quick city break, your family’s all‑important summer holiday, a magical Disney adventure, a romantic getaway or that once‑in‑a‑lifetime escape you have always dreamed of. I will take the time to get to know you, understand what matters most, and tailor every detail so your holiday feels completely personal.
All of your travel arrangements are fully financially protected, including ATOL protection and the peace of mind provided by the Travel Counsellors Trust.
If you are starting to think about your next trip, I would love to hear your ideas. Feel free to get in touch for friendly, impartial advice and a personalised quote. I look forward to helping you plan your perfect journey.

My Cruise with Fred. Olsen: A Family Adventure to the Norwegian Fjords
My Cruise with Fred. Olsen: A Family Adventure to the Norwegian Fjords On May 28th, my family and I boarded the MS Borealis, ready to set sail on an adventure through the breathtaking Norwegian Fjords. Fred. Olsen cruises aren’t typically marketed as family-friendly, so I wasn’t quite sure how the kids would take to life at sea — but I needn’t have worried. We all had an absolutely fantastic time

A firm favourite - Cyprus
A firm favourite of mine and my husband's is Cyprus, for many reasons - the weather, the culture, the beaches and that is where we got married! We flew on 25th June 2017 with our then 11 month old daughter to prepare for our wedding on the 29th June 2017. We checked in our luggage, and headed straight to the gate with my wedding dress all packed in a box in my hand. The flight was exciting (luc
