It's Nice To Meet You

Looking for a holiday beyond Europe?

From honeymoons in the Maldives and African safaris to island hopping in South East Asia, Californian road trips, rail journeys through the Rockies or an epic adventure around Australia, you’re in the right place.

Travel has been part of my life since my early twenties, when I first caught the travel bug exploring Asia and Australia. Over the past two decades, I’ve built a career specialising in luxury, tailor made travel, with first hand experience across destinations including New Zealand, South Africa, the Middle East, Mauritius, the Maldives, Sri Lanka, South America, the USA and Canada, the Caribbean and most recently, Vietnam with my teenagers!

Tailor made holidays are my passion, and the more complex the itinerary, the better. I design bespoke, multi centre journeys built on professional experience, trusted local partners and first hand knowledge, not automated itineraries or generic public reviews.

Luxury travel is my forte. From first and business class flights to some of the world’s finest hotels, I curate holidays, honeymoons and once in a lifetime trips that are carefully matched to you. I’ve personally experienced many exceptional properties worldwide, with La Faena in Buenos Aires remaining a particular favourite.

Alongside leisure travel, I lead a dedicated team who specialise in corporate travel management, sports and group travel, and accessible travel. If your enquiry falls into one of these areas, please visit my Business Travel page to learn more about how the team can support you.

If you’re already an existing client, you also have access to trusted specialists within my team who can help with cruise holidays, ski trips and luxury family travel, ensuring you always deal with someone who truly knows that style of travel.

Unlike booking online, you benefit from genuine expertise, personal service and full financial protection, without compromising on value or quality.

I’m available by phone, email or video appointment.

What my customers say

I have had the best holidays when Rob has booked them, the most memorable beingThailand, visiting Koh Samui, Koh Panang and Koh Tao all beautiful islands and amazing hotels. I am off to Rome later in the year and I know it will be a good, well organized trip with a nice hotel. Rob has a knack of understanding what you want and matching you up with the right holiday, I would absolutely recommend booking your holiday with him.

We have just got back from our fantastic honeymoon organised by Rob. It was exactly what we wanted. It was really nice not knowing where we where going to be staying the next night but knowing it would be somewhere fantastic as Rob had organised it. He made it simple and hassle free because every small detail had been taken care of, meaning we were free to relax and enjoy every second of it. He came up with some brilliant ideas of things to do/ places to stay and had organised with the hotels loads of extra details to make our honeymoon even more special. We could not recommend him highly enough and have already passed his information on to some other of our friends who are getting married next year.

Rob has been a great help and adviser. Always there with good advice, accessible, even when you’re in a different time zone and want a change of plan. Happy to help at any stage even when that is just blue sky thinking and always willing to invest the time to create your perfect travel plans regardless of whether you ultimately make the trip

Tony Kelly

Following a recommendation from my son, I have found my first experience to be an extremely good one. Rob has taken a lot of trouble to prepare various options, taking into account my preferences and the agreed booking was carried out very promptly and efficiently. The App is amazing and is by far one of the best I have used, giving clear, precise details of my travel plans. I will certainly be recommending Rob to others.

I have already been singing Rob’s praises far and wide! An absolutely fantastic service carefully tailored to our wants, needs and budget. Really friendly, helpful and efficient. Made what could have been a time consuming job for us totally painless. He really does go the extra mile, for example in advising about vaccinations and so on. Would wholeheartedly recommend.

Rob is super efficient at getting your trip ‘up and running’ and nothing is any trouble, he makes sure you are happy with everything. I have booked previously with Rob for a family holiday and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him and book through him in the future - he takes out all the stress!

Caroline Briggs

Rob was friendly and efficient, I would happily recommend him to family and friends

Samantha Jackson

Rob has shown he has vast experience and knowledge of long haul travel. We were keen to travel to Australia and he has been very helpful in giving tips and advice on possible additions or changes to make our holiday a better experience for us.. We were extremely impressed with his professionalism and helpfulness. He helped us tweak our plans to suit our vision of how our holiday should be and prices were very competitive. Nothing was too much trouble, even contacting us outside of the normal office hours to ensure we were happy with everything. Perfect Travel Counsellor and have recommended him to friends already.

Cannot recommend Robert enough. I can't believe booking a bespoke holiday could be so stress free......Part of me is still wondering if there is a catch...it's unbelievable how easy it was...it's a tailor-made holiday in amazing hotels and we didn't lift a finger! And he made it cheaper than if we had booked our own hostel and flights!!!

Hannah Price

'Rob has been helping me with my travel arrangements for many years. He has extensive knowledge and experience of the travel industry and is able to advise on all areas of the world and all types of trip. If you add to that his very pleasant manner and the great value for money he provides, you really couldn't do any better than Rob for all your travel requirements. The other impressive thing about Rob is that his involvement doesn't stop once the booking is made, he has been very helpful to my friends and I on a number of occasions when we've run into problems on our travels.If you're looking for an excellent travel consultant, look no further than Rob. I can't recommend him highly enough.

Dave Bennett

Hampshire

Rob provided me and my friend with a fantastic service when we went to the Far East and while we were there his help was invaluable, not sure what we would have done without you when the Tsunami struck and completely changed our travel plans for the Japanese leg of the visit. Completely insignificant compared to the tragedy that unfolded but you provided a real lifeline while we were far away in a foreign region at a time of massive devastation and disruption to normal life. I can heartily recommend Rob and the very personal travel service he offers - he will not let you down.
