It's Nice To Meet You
Hello,
I’m Norman and I’m happily married to Janet and we have a wonderful Golden Retriever Freya.
So you may ask, why choose me to arrange your travel plans?
To answer that I’d first like to tell you a little bit about why I started working in the travel industry, way back in 1975.
As a young boy, I dreamed of becoming an airline pilot, having been fortunate to travel extensively with my family to some of the far flung corners of the globe, well before tour operators or even travel packages were conceived. As a 12 year old I would often be found sitting in the cockpit with the pilot, asking hundreds of questions and getting my Junior Jet Club Frequent Flyer log book signed.
Sadly due to colour blindness, my dream job could never be realised, but that didn’t fade my love of travel and so in my early twenties I took ownership of a local travel agency; in Wigan, learning the trade from the bottom up.
Since that date in 1975 I have been responsible for arranging thousands of holidays and business trips for individuals, couples and families, major corporations, a leading TV company and broadcaster, celebrities and professional sports clubs, including their players, backroom staff and an army of devoted fans. I have been known to charter private jets, trains and dare I mention organizing the travel plans of a major political party during a general election.
My clients come from all walks of life; have different expectations and budgets, which I try my utmost to fulfil. From room or seating requests, to the dietary requests of a famous TV chef, I’ve learned that nothing is impossible.
Sure I still love to travel; who doesn’t?, but I get enormous satisfaction turning dreams into reality and the feedback I receive helps me keep abreast of the constantly changing world in which we live.
So, whether you want a mini break or beach holiday, a river cruise, a Caribbean or round the world cruise, a trip to Antarctica, a safari, or journey on The Rocky Mountaineer or Trans Siberian Express. Do you dream of skiing or snowmobiling, or desire a bespoke multi-centre trip to Australasia or the Far East. Don’t worry, I’ve arranged them all.
No trip is too big or too small, so with over 45 years in the travel business, give me a call and experience my experience.

Norman is the easiest and most efficient person I have ever dealt with for booking holidays. I was introduced to Norman back in 2015 by a former colleague and have had the most memorable and superb family holidays as a result. I was delighted to see Norman back on the travel scene post COVID and have already booked my next holiday with him - my first since COVID. All I had to do was give Norman an idea of where I wanted to go, what kind of facilities (i.e. kids clubs, family focus etc), rough budget and dates. As a result - a seamless, hassle-free holiday all booked. The family are super excited. Thank you, Norman!

Norman has been my travel agent since 2009 and I simply wouldn't book a holiday without him in my corner. Never a problem, lots of new destinations offered that we had never considered and a great knowledge base and a great man to boot.

Due to the popularity of the holiday we wanted to book Norman put in a lot of time and effort to secure us seats on a flight and accommodation. We would not have been able to book the holiday without him.

Norman has been exceptionally helpful, planning our trip with precision, looking out for all our specifications and taking the stress out of booking an intricate trip of a lifetime! It was particularly wonderful to realise that i have seen Norman several times in person on local walks with our dogs, it all seemed to make things somewhat 'meant to be'.I have already recommended him to my family and will be using Norman again in the very near future.

I would ( and have always) recommended Norman to friends and family. I always receive a prompt and efficient service. He has gone well above and beyond during the pandemic in particular giving useful tips and advice. He is always attentive and understands my requirements perfectly. Also he is always cheerful and upbeat ! More people should use travel agents like Norman -it is very reassuring in such constantly changing and uncertain times. I would recommend this approach to anyone. He is very approachable .

Many travel consultants are ok when you are making a booking but are not always too interested when things go wrong, Norman always ensures that any special requirements are confirmed and after dealing with him for many years we know we can rely on him, even when things don't go as planned.
