It's Nice To Meet You

Hi, I'm Sarah. I live in North Cheshire with my husband and our 2 young adult children.

Travel has been my obsession since 1992 when the 20-year-old me and my future husband took our first independent trip abroad - across the Atlantic to Florida. Instantly hooked on travelling, this was quickly followed by holidays to Mexico, Thailand and a ‘Grand Tour’ of Italy and we have visited over 40 different countries together since.

I love travel because of the unparalleled experiences it offers -
walking on the Nigardsbreen Glacier, Norway; riding Flight of Passage in Disney World; joining the pilgrims in Lhasa's Jokhang Temple; getting up close and personal with Iguacu Falls in Brazil
– all moments that will be etched into my memory forever!

In 2017, after 25 years successfully organising my own adventures, I started a new chapter in life by joining Travel Counsellors. Now, as a full-time travel professional, my mission is to help others create equally cherished memories. I want to share my knowledge and expertise to help you go beyond the 'average holiday' and embark on extraordinary journeys.

I specialise in putting together personalised touring holidays to all four corners of the planet - North America, Latin America, Asia and Australasia. I go beyond the basics of flights, accommodation, and transfers, to create complete itineraries incorporating not-to-be-missed attractions, and under-the-radar experiences... all underpinned by detailed pre-travel advice and in-resort support.

After 1992 I’ve visited Florida a further 8 times, and it’s safe to say that I’m an Orlando and Disney fanatic! I know the parks, attractions, and experiences like the proverbial back-of-my-hand, and I’ve got lots of insider tips and tricks on touring, tickets and the best places to stay. As part of my service, I arm you with insights into the theme park systems, as well as a personalised day-to-day plan. Both help to minimise queuing and make what could be quite a demanding holiday, into the most enjoyable and memorable trip ever!

As a Travel Counsellor, I manage my own business from home, so you have direct access to me at a time to suit you. I use award-winning technology to connect with 1000s of trusted global suppliers and because I’m not tied to specific companies or products, I can use my expertise to craft the perfect holiday for you.

I offer guidance on navigating the current travel landscape. Which coupled with my exceptional attention to detail, the best financial protection in the industry and 24/7 worldwide emergency telephone support, ensures that booking a trip with me is straightforward, seamless, and stress-free.

Get in touch and let me work with you to plan the best experience possible
for you and your loved ones.

Sent by Stephen Fry

Sarah is very prompt to answer our calls and e mail enquiries. This travel experience to the United States is our first attempt at multi centre trip, (Previously all our trips abroad have been straightforward return trips) and it became a bit overwhelming when each attempt to work out the route came to a different conclusion. Then there was hotels and car hire! Sarah quickly understood the requirements and produced quotes the same day, She gave a very clear explanation on the best way to book the trip that would give us the full protection offered through ATOL and airline groups etc. Sarah was open to questions and tweaked options patiently, allowed us time to consider without any pressure to complete. We are now confident that we have a workable plan and the whole package is complete and booked. Yes I will be referring to Sarah again for future trips. Many Thanks

She never fails to come back with some great options for us and is always happy to carry out more research for us or look into other alternatives. She takes the hassle out of planning a holiday and makes sure we have all our paperwork and documents printed out for us before we fly! She was particularly helpful following the pandemic to inform us on the travel restrictions and entry requirements for each country and took the worry out of travel. We'd never use anyone else!

Once we had selected our accommodation and decided on the perfect island, Sarah worked tirelessly in ensuring the best flight options available for us and provided a brilliant itinerary, as well as securing the best seat configuration for each flight.

Iceland had been on the wish list ever since we had first ventured to Scandinavia in the Summer of 2015 (Norway - fabulous!

CHINA: Experiences & Travel Tips

05 December 2018

In 2018 my kids were 15 and 12, so we felt it was time to venture a little bit further with our main holiday. We considered many parts of the globe, with China finally coming out on top by offering the best value on things to see and do versus overall costs. There were the obvious sights like the Great Wall and the Terracotta Armies to consider, but the more I read about China's wealth of stunnin

A Weekend in BERLIN

11 June 2018

A cheeky city break - that’s what we needed! After a convenient Friday teatime flight from Liverpool and an easy train to our hotel, we were sat in the bar by 9pm having a cocktail! Me and the kids all love history and Berlin has some world-famous monuments, so this was going to be a weekend of museums, parks, iconic sites, pop culture, along with the obligatory bratwurst, sauerkraut and beer.

I’m a science geek! Growing up I was aware (ten years ahead of time) that a solar eclipse was going to cross the UK in 1999.
