It's Nice To Meet You
Hello thanks for visiting my webpage!
My name is Sandra and I am an independent travel agent living in Rothwell, Leeds.
I have worked in the travel industry for almost 34 years now and was on the high street for many years before making the best decision to join the award winning Travel Counsellors back in 2009....since then I have not looked back.
I have been very lucky during this time and enjoyed many trips all over the world.
At the moment I am really enjoying cruising and having been to the Caribbean earlier on in the year am looking forward to going on the fabulous new P & O Britannia later in the year.
I feel as if now I can offer the kind of unique personal service that was very hard to find on the high street. That combined with our fantastic technology enables me to put together exactly the right holiday for my clients.
I’d love to help you arrange a trip that’s perfect for you. Added to my service is the fact that everything you book is financially protected. If you think I can help please email me or pick up the phone. I look forward to hearing from you.

Magical Mauritius
I visited this wonderful country recently for the very first time. We flew with Air Mauritius via Paris from Manchester and the flight was superb with a great crew and very comfortable seats. The hotel was an adult only called Recif Attitude, quite small by Mauritius standards but that suited us. The location is excellent, right on a beach with great snorkelling. The sea here is like an aquariu

Beautiful breathtaking Bermuda!
I had very high expectations of this island and they have been more than surpassed I have to say!! Its often a bit missed off in terms of holiday destinations but should be near the top of everyones list. We had a very pleasant 7 hour flight direct from Gatwick that passed very quickly. Bermuda is in the Atlantic Ocean and very close to the Eastern coast of the USA and would be ideal for a twin

Jamaica 50
Well what can I say about this beautiful country? It has left a place in my heart! This was my first taste of the Caribbean and has left me hungry for more. I can’t put my finger on it as it’s a combination of the people who are wonderful and don’t take life seriously or the climate or the wonderful warm seas (it really is like swimming in a bath) the lush vegetation or the fabulous hotels we v

The Paradors of Galicia
This was a very exciting trip as I had heard about the Paradors of Spain but never been fortunate enough to visit one ...plus this area of Spain was very new to me I have been to Spain many times but this area is unlike any other I have been to especially in terms of scenery...its very rugged and green. We flew direct from Stansted to Santiago de Compostela which was a quick and pleasant flight

Tuscany
To visit Tuscany was a dream of mine as I had never been to this area of Italy. I have to say it did not disappoint. We flew with British Airways from Heathrow and this was a very quick flight with good service on board. We stayed at the 3* family run Hotel Ville Ricci in Chianciano Terme, which is a great base for visiting nearby hill towns as well as Florence, Rome and Siena. This was a very

Costa del Sol
I try and go to this area as much as possible as its a short flight and transfer. I like to stay on the oustkirts in the little town of Los Boliches as it still retains much of its charm. There is a lovely long promenade here that leads into the centre of town that's is very flat and great for wheelchair users. The beach is lovely, wide and sandy and stretches for miles. Yes there are high ris

Lovely Afitos!
I visited this area for the second time in Sept 2014. We stayed in the outstanding hotel Nostos run by a wonderful English lady along with her Greek husband and they do an amazing job.The hotel has a 3 * rating but due to the personal touches they have made it warrants much higher.The staff are fantastic and hard working yet always ready for a chat and a laugh. The location looks out over th

Caribbean Luxury
Hi I was lucky enough in March this year to join the lovely ship P & O Adonia in Barbados for a transatlantic cruise back to the UK. We flew out direct to Barbados after checking in our suitcases at Manchester and they appeared like magic to our cabin shortly after arrival ...so easy! The impressions of the ship were really good as its such a small one it was so friendly with some of the be
