I create tailor-made holidays around the world, with particular expertise in Africa, Japan and South East Asia. From thoughtfully planned honeymoons to multi-stop family adventures, I make the planning feel calm, personal and carefully considered.
Hello, and welcome — I’m Miranda, founder of Seymour Escapes and a personal travel expert within the award-winning Travel Counsellors network.
Think of me as your Travel PA meets Concierge — organised, detail-driven and very good at thinking a few steps ahead. Some clients come to me knowing exactly where they want to go; others feel overwhelmed by choice. Either way, everything is handled personally by me, from first enquiry to your return home. No call centres, no off-the-shelf packages — just honest advice and carefully crafted itineraries.
Through Travel Counsellors, I work with a trusted global network of local partners and on-the-ground experts, offering extra reassurance, flexibility and support while you’re travelling.
I’m especially drawn to trips that allow you to experience a destination in a more meaningful way — staying in places with a strong sense of identity, balancing iconic highlights with time to explore more deeply, and weaving in authentic, locally led experiences that really bring a place to life.
SOME OF THE HOLIDAYS I PLAN
AFRICAN SAFARI HOLIDAYS
Kenya, Tanzania, Botswana and South Africa, often paired with Indian Ocean or Zanzibar beach stays.
TAILOR-MADE JAPAN ITINERARIES
From Tokyo and Kyoto to lesser-visited regions, with cultural and seasonal experiences.
SOUTH EAST ASIA MULTI-CENTRE TRIPS
Thailand, Vietnam, Cambodia and Indonesia, thoughtfully paced and carefully routed.
HONEYMOONS AND ROMANTIC ESCAPES
Safari honeymoons, Asia adventures and Caribbean island stays.
FAMILY ADVENTURE HOLIDAYS
Child-friendly safaris, Asia with older children and relaxed multi-stop itineraries.
MULTI-DESTINATION JOURNEYS
Combining cities, landscapes and coastlines in one well-designed itinerary.
WELLNESS-FOCUSED AND RESTORATIVE TRAVEL
Spa-led escapes and small-group retreats, with planning and logistics handled for you.
ONCE-IN-A-LIFETIME TRAVEL EXPERIENCES
That go deeper than the highlights.
This is just a snapshot — every itinerary is tailor-made and shaped around you, wherever in the world you’re dreaming of.
If you’re planning something special — near or far — I’d love to help.

7 Perfect Days in Sardinia
Dreaming of Sardinia is easy. Turquoise bays, honey-coloured granite and long, slow evenings by the sea feel made for couples who want time together and space to breathe. Turning that dream into a holiday that genuinely suits you is about knowing where to slow down, where to explore — and which parts of the island lend themselves best to a week away.
