It's Nice To Meet You

Hello and welcome to my web page. My aim is to give you a personal service to tailor your travel arrangements, to give you an experience which will give you memories to cherish for ever.

I love travelling and have been fortunate to have experienced many countries. Sometimes, a little off the beaten track! Whatever you want to do, at Travel Counsellors we have a range of options for whatever type of travel and destination you are looking for, enabling me to put together whatever kind of holiday or short break or cruise together, wherever it may be.

When I worked in Saudi Arabia for a number of years I was able to travel extensively around the Middle East. There are now some interesting places to visit in the region away from the usual tourist destination, such as Al Ula, Saudi’s equivalent to Jordan’s Petra or Wadi Ash Shab in Oman.

Some of my other favourites are the Philippines with white sandy beaches and crystal clear sea, Chocolate Hills of Bohol and the Subterranean river of Palawan. New Zealand and the three long distance rail journeys through some breath taking scenery, Milford Sound and Bay of Islands.

What are your favourites or destinations of desire? Give me a call so we can discuss what you are looking for, happy to meet over a coffee. Doesn’t matter whether it’s a short break or something longer, I look forward to helping you on your way.

With Travel Counsellors your holiday is fully financially protected. If you decide you want to book something additional whilst you are away, I’m a phone call or email away. If something goes wrong we have a 24 hour duty office to help you.

I look forward to putting together your next adventure, wherever it may be.

Tui Skyla River Cruise

09 January 2025

When my sister suggested we go on a river cruise over new year I was a bit, ummm! I have to be honest that river cruises never really floated my boat (sorry), but my wife was keen to try it so I thought why not. We flew to Frankfurt and was met by the Tui representative and transferred to the ship (or is it boat!) by coach. We were on the Tui Skyla and had a cabin on deck one. Deck one is the low

Switzerland by Rail (Part 2)

16 October 2024

On Tuesday we took the stroll up to the station at Tiefencastel to board the Bernina Express for the three and a half hour journey to Tirano in Italy. It’s a fantastic journey through some amazing scenery across the Alps. It is a UNESCO listed route. For me one of the best bits of the route is the Brusio spiral viaduct (see my video) which is an amazing piece of engineering. After this as one head

Switzerland by Rail (Part 1)

30 September 2024

I love travelling by train, you see so much more than you would travelling by car. So we embarked on a Great Rail Journeys tour to travel on Switzerland’s Bernina Express, Arosa Line and Glacier Express back in October last year. Setting off from St Pancras on a Saturday lunch time for the Eurostar to Paris Gare du Nord. On arrival at Gare du Nord, we made our way on foot to Gare de L’Est which ta
