Travel planned with experience, not guesswork!

I’m Sam, a personal Travel Counsellor with over 30 years’ experience in the travel industry and 24 years running my own successful business with Travel Counsellors. I specialise in long-haul, tailor-made travel for clients who want expert planning, personal service and reassurance throughout the booking process.

I’ve travelled extensively and use genuine first-hand knowledge to guide every recommendation I make. Destinations I've personally visited include the USA, French Polynesia, the Maldives, Australia, Sri Lanka, Mauritius, Dubai, Singapore, Hong Kong, Thailand, Mexico, Antigua, St Lucia, Jamaica, Barbados Grand Cayman and Europe.
These personal experiences allows me to plan travel that works smoothly and suits how you actually want to travel.

With so many online options, booking a holiday can quickly become confusing and time-consuming. I offer something simpler: one point of contact, clear advice and a personal approach from start to finish. No call centres, no pressure, and no need to second-guess your decisions.

I also work closely with clients who have additional medical needs or mobility considerations. From flight seating and airport assistance to accommodation suitability and logistics, careful planning is essential to ensure everything runs smoothly. Having someone who understands the detail and takes the time to get it right, can make all the difference to travelling with confidence and comfort.

Having my own wedding in the Caribbean, I've since arranged many overseas weddings and honeymoons, so if you're looking for your dream wedding/honeymoon destination I can help!

If you’re planning a long-haul holiday, a luxury break, or a special occasion abroad, I’ll handle the details carefully and professionally, so you can book knowing everything has been properly considered and taken care of.

A Taste Of Thailand!

A Taste Of Thailand!

As the title says, Thailand really is a place for 'foodies'! The food is simply scrumptious! During my 10-day trip to Thailand I was so lucky to visit and stay in some fabulous hotels in the Phuket and Khao Lak region and of course eat some amazing food. There really is something for all budgets. Personally, I love a villa with private pool, so the Banyan Tree ticked that box or a swim out r

La Compagnie to New York

La Compagnie to New York

I didn't need asking twice when I was invited to fly to New York with La Compagnie on their inaugural flight from Luton to Newark. Myself and 3 other agents were invited to attend this prestigious event with 3 night in New York staying at the Knickerbocker Hotel. La Compagnie are a brand new boutique airline, offering 74 seats in an all business class cabin on their 757 aircraft. Flying fr

Hot in Hurghada

Hot in Hurghada

I was fortunate enough to go to Hurghada twice in a couple of weeks. My first holiday was in June with Darren and our two friends, then I was home for a week and went back again with my daughter Gaby and our friend Kirsty. You know I have a passion for the Caribbean but wanted the weather and warm sea but not the flying time! So Hurghada in Egypt fitted the bill. Just a five hour flight from Gatw

My first bite of the BIG APPLE NEW YORK

My first bite of the BIG APPLE NEW YORK

After months of my daughter nagging me about going to New York, I finally gave in! A few months of planning and we were off, we had an action pack itinerary with all of our sightseeing trips pre booked before we left. This not only saved us time but money as well, as it didn't eat into our spending money - which of course we needed every penny to shop shop shop! So we flew out to NYC early o

Mexico is more than just mojitos

Mexico is more than just mojitos

I think it’s really important to give my clients advice and information based on first-hand experiences. That’s one of the reasons I love being part of Travel Counsellors because I get the opportunity to go on a number of educational trips. I’ve been very fortunate to travel to some amazing places. I have recently returned from a trip to Mexico with 9 of my Travel Counsellor colleagues. We m

Kalkan Delight

Kalkan Delight

For our 10th wedding anniversary we wanted something a little different from our normal all-inclusive holiday. The resort of Kalkan in Turkey looked perfect, with its picturesque harbour and choices of bars, restaurants and old cobbled streets. It was traditional Turkey, sophisticated, charming and not a fast food chain in sight! Our hotel, The Asfiya, was again traditional in style but to a v

Jammin' In Jamaica

This was my second visit to Jamaica and I can't wait to go back! It's just over nine hours from the UK it's well worth it and for the duty free shopping! For those looking for lots to do on holiday, Jamaica has it all and for those looking to just sit back and relax then you can do that to on the fine beaches Jamaica has to offer. Of course Dunns River Falls is a must and makes for a great

Beautiful Barbados

Beautiful Barbados

The 8hr flight with Virgin from Gatwick to Barbados flew by! The choice of in flight entertainment kept us all occupied and not once did I hear the words..."Mum are we nearly there yet??!!" Within an hour of landing we were at the hotel and sipping our first cocktail. One of the many plus points of staying at the Almond Casuarina Hotel is that the transfer is 15mins from the airport. Many p

Simply St Lucia..

Simply St Lucia..

As a fan of the Caribbean I knew I would love St Lucia! Flying into St Lucia was an amazing sight....so lush and green, The Pitons in clear view and of course the clear blue Caribbean sea below us, I couldn't wait to touchdown! As the plane doors opened the heat was intense...but very welcome after leaving a cold wet England. I decided to opt for two hotels for our 10 night family holiday

I would highly recommend this service as most people do like to have a set contact when booking important trips or parting with larger sums of cash. We just get to sit back and wait now. Sam will look after check ins and all other associated ‘niggles’ that usually come from holidays.

G Allen

Salisbury

Having wanted to go travelling for a while, it's only obvious to head to the travel agent in the house, my mum! She's been booking my holidays since I was a baby, so there's no doubting that she's good! However, the thing that struck me this time was the TC app. I hate faffing with paperwork especially when it feels like you're taking a book away with you. With all the trips and flights I'm taking, the amount of paperwork I'd be needing for travelling for over a year is ridiculous, which is why the 'myTC' app is so convenient. It means I can keep all of my document safe on my phone/tablet and me being me, it'll always be glued to my hand. Being able to make payments was another good feature that I liked. Other travel apps I'd encountered weren't this simple and didn't allow you to make payments. The ease of setting the app up was great, a quick password selection and I was in. The countdown feature on the home screen accompanied by an image of the destination made it easily shareable on social media to make my friends and family jealous! Not only does it have my flights, but I've also been able to add on pre-booked organised tours. The fact it shows you a simple itinerary is also really handy and means it's easy to find all the important information such as dates, times and terminals. I've also found that it'll give you live flight updates, which is great for me because of travelling alone. It also means all of your documents are there in one place too, no need to wait for them over email or in the post and trying to remember where everything is. Even adding on trips and documentation such as my visa's for various destinations is also really simple. The app is super simple to get to grips with even for the non-tech savvy clients! Can't wait to use it whilst I'm away!

I've used Sam a number of times of the last few years and I cannot recommend her enough. Her professionalism and knowledge is unsurpassable and I would trust her judgement on destinations above no other. She tells it how it is but you know that her recommendations and advice will ensure for an enjoyable and memorable vacation. I don't use high street travel brands anymore as feel that Sam's experience in the industry is far more beneficial to me and my time when booking holidays and travel plans. Thanks Sam and look forward to your recommendations for this years holiday.

Five years ago when trying to decide where to go on holiday a friend suggested that we should contact Sam as she would make the whole process easier for us. Five years and five holidays later the proof is there she is fantastic. We outline the type of holiday we desire with a rough budget and she does all the leg work and comes up with 2 or 3 options for us to consider. I would highly recommend Sam to anyone, every holiday has been a perfect match to all desires which have differed for each booking. Perfect every time.

Sam is always so helpful, honest, always returns calls. Would not get the same advice and feel confident in anyone on the high street.

M Eve

Farnham Surrey

Sam has been amazing! I have contacted her three times this year - about the same holiday, in varying locations and she has provided a mountain of information, all completely relevant, and yet despite that, the last time we spoke she was just as enthusiastic as the first time (I'm not sure I would have been). As a consequence of her professionalism and knowledge we had no hesitation in booking with her - and I think we can safely say that we won’t be booking a holiday with anyone else in the future. She's fantastic.

Even if we have to change our plans, she somehow manages to find a solution for us.
