It's Nice To Meet You

Looking for stress free, tailor made holidays designed around you? I am your personal Travel Counsellor in Bromley Cross near Bolton, creating bespoke trips, cruises and short breaks so you can simply relax and enjoy every moment. From the first conversation to the day you return home, I take care of every detail so you don’t have to.

Rather than spending hours scrolling through endless options online, you can hand everything over to me. I listen carefully to what you want from your time away, then research and design holidays that match your wish list, your budget and your style of travel. You will always deal with me directly, and I am happy to chat in the evenings or at weekends so we can plan at a time that suits you.

My own travels span many European favourites, including the Greek islands, Croatia, Spain, Portugal, France and Scandinavia, as well as long haul destinations such as the USA, Canada, China, Japan and Australia. This first hand experience helps me recommend destinations, hotels and experiences that genuinely fit you, whether you are planning a relaxing beach escape, a cultural city break, a special celebration or a once in a lifetime adventure.

I am especially passionate about South Africa, in particular the Western Cape and the Winelands. As a South Africa Specialist, I can design itineraries that might include time in Cape Town, self drive routes along the Garden Route, stays in the Winelands and carefully chosen safari experiences, all tailored to your pace and interests.

As your Travel Counsellor I use award winning technology, trusted travel partners and my own knowledge to build holidays that feel seamless from start to finish. Whether you are looking for a sunny beach holiday, city break, cruise, ski trip, wedding, honeymoon or a UK staycation, I will tailor everything around you. I can also support corporate travel, group bookings and accessible travel, working with you to make complex or “tricky” arrangements feel straightforward.

Every trip I arrange is treated as if it were my own. My aim is to remove the stress of planning, add thoughtful touches and be there if you ever need support while you are away. When you book with me, you have the added reassurance of 100% financial protection through the Travel Counsellor Financial Trust.

I also hold Ambassador status accreditation with CLIA (Cruise Lines International Association). If you are new to cruising or looking to try a different style of ship or itinerary, I can help you compare options and find the right cruise for your needs.
If you are ready to start planning, or just have a few ideas you would like to explore, please call or email me and I will come straight back to you. I genuinely love what I do and I look forward to helping you plan your next trip.

I am so pleased and impressed by the service I have received off Sue Lever, Travel Counsellor. She has gone above and beyond for me and my family trying to find the right holiday for us all. She has given me a travel pack with some lovely touches from pens to sweets for the kids, to a TC teddy for Josh, complete with his own passport. Blown away by the service and wouldn’t go anywhere else next time I want a holiday ?? She even found me a flight to Belgium the day before we needed them and sorted everything out. Very impressed. There is a misconception that it costs more money to use Travel Counsellors it simply isn’t true. I would recommend Sue in a heartbeat, thank you so much xxx
