It's Nice To Meet You
Hi and welcome!
I’m Nicola, your personal Travel Counsellor based in beautiful Cornwall.
I’ve been lucky enough to explore so many amazing destinations around the world, both for work and for pleasure – and sometimes several times over! Your travel plans are in safe hands, as I combine a wealth of first-hand experience with the support of an award-winning company, Travel Counsellors, to provide a truly personal service with exceptional attention to detail.
With Travel Counsellors, you’ll also have complete peace of mind knowing your trip is 100% financially protected through the Travel Counsellors Trust or ATOL, plus a dedicated head office team available 24/7 to assist while you’re away.
From marvelling at Darwin’s wonders in the Galápagos Islands to riding the Shinkansen in Japan, ziplining through the Costa Rican rainforest to relaxing in the Indian Ocean, driving the Great Ocean Road in Australia to watching the sunset over Angkor Wat in Cambodia – I can share genuine, first-hand insights to make your journey unforgettable.
I’m truly passionate about travel and love sharing that passion with my clients. I’ve organised and accompanied supporters to Rugby World Cup and British & Irish Lions events around the world, helped mobilise medical personnel globally, and spent over a decade working for a luxury, bespoke tour operator – experiences that have taken me to places beyond my dreams.
I’m available any day of the week, so please get in touch by phone or email to start planning your next adventure. Whether over a coffee or a video call, I’d love to help create your dream holiday.

Sri Lanka stole my heart. It has something for everyone: culture, wildlife, history, active, but relaxing, and the most wonderful people. My journey from Negombo to the Cultural Triangle, Kandy, tea country and the south coast has definitely left me wanting to return and explore even more.

Safari, Skies & Spectacles
There’s something utterly enchanting about an African adventure — especially one that sweeps across wild landscapes and iconic landmarks. Recently, I had the privilege of travelling from the heart of Windhoek in Namibia, weaving through Botswana’s untamed beauty, and finishing at the thunderous Victoria Falls on the Zimbabwe-Zambia border.

Why use a Travel Counsellor
Let's plan your dream trip together
Tailor-made for you
Your holiday isn’t just a trip away. It’s a longed-for escape, time to reconnect with loved ones, or a dream adventure you never thought possible. That’s why I take the time to truly get to know you and understand your hopes and expectations, then use my experience, connections and passion for the destination to create a trip that makes those dreams a reality.
Personalised service. Always
When you plan a holiday with me, you’ll be given my personal mobile number from the very first call. I’ll listen to your thoughts and ideas like I would a friend and arrange accommodation, activities, and flights that are all personalised to you. And I’ll share my personal tips and recommendations, so you can experience the true beauty of each destination.
Stress-free travel, and more time for what matters most
I believe your time away should be stress-free, easy, and seamless from start to finish. So, I take care of all the details for you - from ATOL protection, insurance, and flexible payments to access to the myTC app, which keeps everything in one place.
Support when it matters most
If the unexpected happens, you can rest easy, knowing that I’ll handle any last-minute changes, flight cancellations, or disruptions before you even pick up the phone. So you always feel happy, carefree, and ready to make the most of every moment.
