It's Nice To Meet You

Discover the World with Sanyula

Hello, I’m Sanyula, and I’ve spent over 30 years creating unforgettable travel experiences for clients around the world.

My love for travel began early — as the daughter of a Tanzanian diplomat, I grew up exploring the world from London to East Africa. What started as a chance job selling safaris in Tanzania turned into a lifelong passion after witnessing the magic of the Serengeti at sunrise.

Since then, I’ve travelled far and wide — from drifting through Vietnam’s Halong Bay to watching dawn break over Angkor Wat, from the rainforests of Kuching to the luxury of Mauritius. These experiences have shaped how I craft holidays: personal, seamless, and truly extraordinary.

As a Travel Counsellor, I’m here to design journeys that are completely tailored to you — whether that’s an African safari, an island escape, city break, cruise or a cultural adventure across continents. From the first conversation to your return home, I’m with you every step of the way, ensuring every detail exceeds expectations.

Let’s start planning your next adventure together.

Trondheim. A Norwegian Gem

Trondheim. A Norwegian Gem

Trondheim is Norway’s third largest city located in central Norway. This city brings back childhood memories for me. Last year I had the opportunity to visit with my son as we have family there. We travelled in June and flew with Norwegian. The flight was short and enjoyable, it had inflight wi-fi and a lovely menu. The weather was gorgeous when we were there, the only thing we had to get used

Mauritius

Mauritius

Mauritius is one of my favourite destinations. Having been lucky enough to visit twice, there’s so much I still haven’t done. British Airways offer direct flights from London Gatwick (seasonal) and Air Mauritius direct from London Heathrow. There are plenty other airlines you can use which are ideal for multi-centres. One of the popular twin centres are South Africa and Dubai. Flying time fr

Nostalgic Tanzania Family Safari

Nostalgic Tanzania Family Safari

Going back to Tanzania is always nostalgic for me, for me it's home. This time, I was going back to celebrate my father’s 80th! The family and I organized a safari for Dad. Where I’d had the experience to visit many of Tanzania’s National Parks, Dad hadn’t, as his travels were mainly abroad. I am lucky to get companion fares, this enables me to travel business class, it is always a fantasti

Fall in love with Cyprus

Fall in love with Cyprus

Cyprus is a four and a half hour flight from London. We flew with Aegean from Heathrow, however, you can fly from Gatwick as well as from other regional airports, using different airlines. Our first stop was Ayia Napa. It’s around a 45 minute transfer from the Airport . The beaches are lovely and there’s plenty to do around the area. I felt really comfortable and enjoyed the stunning views fr

What my customers say

Sanyula has arranged a diverse range of holidays for me, and her service has always been of the highest standard. She is always ready to go the extra mile and no request goes unanswered. Highly recommended!

James Fearnley

Southbank, London

Sanyula is exceptional when it comes to planning your holiday. We have worked with Sanyula a couple of times and are reminded why we decided to go with her each time. Everything is smooth, from the communication during the planning to the actual stay. We recently booked our honeymoon, and she was patient with us as we kept suggesting new locations. In the end, she found the perfect location within our budget. We turn off our brains on vacation and are rest assured that everything will go well because it does. Thank you Sanyula!!!

Anna Taylor-Carmody

Orpington, KENT

Sanyula provided a first class service, I gave her my criteria which included my budget, the flight times, the dates with no flexibility, and the type of holiday I was looking for. I was truly amazed that she delivered on all of my criteria, what was even more shocking she even booked my seats on the plane so I didn’t have to worry about where I would be sitting, all this was done within an hour of me giving her my requirements and on a Sunday morning. No stress, no hassle, job done. I don’t know why I have never used a service like this before, and it doesn’t cost you a penny extra. You also have the peace of mind should anything go wrong Sanyula is just a phone call away. I will certainly be using Sanyula for all my future holiday trips. 10 out of 10

Thank you Sanyula…. you are truly a travel expert and a lovely lady to boot. Our spur of the moment holiday away for Graham's birthday was amazing. The resort you found us was perfect, 5 star in fact and your attention to every detail of our travel arrangements was unrivalled. We can genuinely say that your services are the best we have ever come across. The whole experience started with you ensuring you understood every single one of our requirements from the moment we left our home until the moment we returned. We could not have asked for anything more of our break and will undoubtably be using you in the future. So if you have any travel requirements we would not hesitate to recommend her for all your group, personal or business travel arrangements. As Sanyula is well travelled herself she has a huge catalogue of travel location knowledge and travel experience to pass on to all her clients.

Ann and Graham Watson

Kent

We enjoy having our own personal Travel Counsellor, Sanyula. Her customer service is second to none, something we have not been getting from the large Travel Agents. We have booked numerous bespoke And package holidays with Sanyula. (Vietnam, Burma, Oman, Malaysia & more) My Sister and I know we can get advise on visa's, currency or holiday tips from Sanyula at anytime, even after you have paid. We will be back to consult Sanyula for our next holiday as well as recommend her to others.
