It's Nice To Meet You

It's safe to say that travel is my greatest passion. Having missed out on foreign travel as a child and taking my first trip to India at the age of 15, I think I've been making up for lost time ever since! Since starting my journey in high street travel at the age of 17 and working with luxury tailor made trips, private islands and villas, I have gained a wealth of knowledge over the years to help me curate your perfect travel experiences.

Working as a Travel Counsellor enables me to provide a highly personalised and bespoke service, allowing me to give as much care and attention into planning your holiday as I would my own. I aim to make your trip special by taking charge of the finer details and making your booking process hassle-free. Being truly independent, with a diverse choice of suppliers to hand, helps to turn your travel dreams into reality and find that unique trip that is just right for you. I can be available at a time to suit you, so for those little travel queries I am only a call away.

Working with luxury villas has taken me across Europe, however, I do love to travel long haul and have been lucky enough to experience places like Bali, Thailand, Hong Kong, USA and South Africa, to name some highlights. A memorable adventure was a trip of a lifetime to Australia - a boat on Sydney harbour for New Year's Eve, surfing Bondi beach and exploring Fraser Island - now that will be a tough trip to beat!

From the UK to Australia and everywhere between, no trip is too big or too small and I look forward to hearing from you. Life is about the journey... Where will your travels take you next?

Stephanie has been incredible in planning our dream honeymoon. We were overwhelmed and had decision fatigue whilst planning a wedding - we reached out to Stephanie after a recommendation, and are so glad we did. Stephanie held a detailed consultation, getting to know us and asking how we spend our time, our hobbies and interests and what would be important to us on this trip. From this, she worked magic and came up with some fantastic and bespoke options to choose from - including excursions and things that will make our trip that extra bit special - even booking the airport lounge to kick our trip off in style! Stephanie has been ever so responsive, will happily answer any question, and it is clear that she cares about us having the best time and being comfortable with the travel plans. We are so excited to go on our amazing trip that Stephanie has planned for us. I have recommended Stephanie to others and will be seeking her support in the future - it has never been so easy - thank you!

We have used Steph for 2 holidays now and her service is amazing. We wanted to change our location for our silver wedding anniversary holiday 7 weeks before we were due to go. She made the process completely stress free for us. Can’t recommend her enough.

Steph went above and beyond what we expected of her. Not only did she book our flights and accommodation, but also checked which hotels were suitable for vegetarians and their payments measures. In addition, she demonstrated an in-depth knowledge and enthusiasm for the location.

Elephant Hills Adventure

15 October 2019

The land of smiles welcomed us to paradise, first stop Koh Lanta. We landed into Phuket airport and travelled down by luxury minivan and public ferry. As we pulled into the entrance to The Layana Resort & Spa we were greeted with flower garlands and a refreshing hibiscus juice which was a welcome treat after our long journey. We had time for a quick dip in one of the two adults only pools before s

Five reasons the Algarve should be next on your travel list

02 July 2019

The hidden gem which is the Algarve, enjoys over 300 days of sun per year, it’s only a two hour flight from the UK and there is no time difference. It’s a destination which can be touristy if you’re not wised-up but I’ve been lucky enough to explore this area enough to know where to go to find it’s true beauty. That’s already three reason’s to travel right there but I hope to share with you my lov

Vegas, baby!

07 June 2019

Las Vegas. Sin City. Where do I begin? Before visiting Las Vegas the first time, I was sceptical and really had no desire to travel here. “What’s all the fuss about”, I thought! It turns out, it’s one of those places you’ll never forget! Finding myself in Vegas the first time, thanks to my Dad’s wedding - well, actually two weddings that week in fact -my whole perspective of the city changed. The
