It's Nice To Meet You

I’m Paula, mum to two adventurous boys, and we love to travel. Plain and simple.

I specialise in premium, tailor‑made holidays for clients who value time, service and attention to detail. With over 35 years of experience, I have created bespoke itineraries for leisure, corporate and VIP travellers, drawing on first‑hand knowledge from my own journeys: soaring through the treetops in the Dominican Republic, water based activities in Mexico and taking in the views from Corcovado Mountain in Rio. As much as I enjoy adventure, I am just as happy immersing myself in local culture and relaxing by the pool.

Working closely with a trusted team, I design high‑end, fully personalised trips: from luxury family holidays and special celebrations to complex multi‑centre journeys and once‑in‑a‑lifetime escapes. Every detail is considered, including flights, handpicked hotels or villas, private transfers, airport parking, lounge access, car hire and carefully curated experiences that elevate your time away.

I have been fortunate to visit many wonderful destinations, including the USA and Canada, Central and South America, the Caribbean, the Far East, Africa, Australia and a wide range of European countries closer to home. This first‑hand knowledge helps me match you with the right destinations and properties to suit your style, standards and expectations.

No more hours spent trawling the internet: I take care of the research and planning so you can simply look forward to your next journey.

Planning your next trip or seeking inspiration on where to go? Please call or message me and let me know what is on your bucket list.

I look forward to hearing from you soon.

I have used TC twice now. When planning our first trip to Vietnam, Paula listened to our requirements and made changes as we advised to get the type of trip we wanted. Kept us informed through out the lead up to the trip, when on trip reached out to us too ensure all was well and updated re flight check ins. We also got an upgrade on our Peony Cruise trip to the largest room courtesy of TC, amazing other guests we met were impressed! We also just booked Celebrity Norwegian Fjords cruise for ourselves and friends. Look forward to using TC again
