It's Nice To Meet You

Hello, I’m Tanya—welcome! I live in the beautiful coastal town of Sidmouth with my husband and son, where I balance my love of travel with precious family life. Anyone who knows me will tell you: travel isn’t just my job, it’s my passion. Whether I’m planning, chatting, researching, or exploring new places, I genuinely love everything about discovering the world.

With more than 40 countries already ticked off my list and many more in my sights, my travels have taken me from the city buzz across Europe, to skiing the mountains in the Alps, to the beaches of the Caribbean, and on adventures across Asia, Africa, the Middle East, the Indian Ocean, Russia, and across the USA. Many of those countries I’ve explored as a family—which means I have hands-on experience of what really makes a trip work for couples and families alike!

I strongly believe there’s no “one size fits all” in travel. Every client is unique, and every trip I design is crafted around your wishes, interests, and travel style. With Travel Counsellors’ world-class technology, a global network of trusted suppliers, and the powerful backing of a respected international business, I’m able to offer incredible value with the kind of personal touch and attention to detail that makes all the difference.

As well knowing they have my full support, my clients often tell me they appreciate my organised, solutions-driven approach and my eye for detail. I take the time to get to know you, to learn what makes each person in your travel party light up. My goal is always to understand your priorities, answer your questions, and create a holiday that’s perfect for you—whether that’s a dream beach break, a multi-centre adventure, a family getaway, a ski escape, a chic city break, or even a special staycation here in the UK.

Booking with me means you enjoy all the advantages of a boutique, bespoke service—plus the peace of mind that comes from unbeatable financial protection thanks to our dedicated trust fund and ATOL licensing. I’m supported by a 24/7 service desk, ensuring you’re looked after no matter what.

As I work flexibly from home, I’m available at times that suit you, not just office hours. My independence allows me to offer impartial advice and options that are truly tailored to your needs and budget.

Wherever you’re dreaming of next, I’d love to help make it a reality. Get in touch for a friendly chat and let’s start planning your next adventure—wherever in the world that might be!

Tanya was super efficient and couldn’t do anymore to help with our enquiry and through the booking process. Would highly recommend and will definitely use Tanya again.

Mr M

Sidmouth

The contact and professionalism shown by Tanya made the whole experience of booking and organising our family holiday simple! With 10 people in 2 different UK locations it could have been a logistical nightmare but Tanya made it so simple for me. Tanya kept in contact while we were away to make sure everything went smoothly. I was confident that she would have resolved any issue had it arisen but thankfully nothing did! Tanya was quick to let us know of a flight delay on our return, before the airline did and kept in touch. Fantastic service, I would highly recommend. Thank you Tanya.

I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Tanya! From our first conversation she completely understood the brief and with just some very minor tweaking, we arrived at a final package within a very short period. I’m also really impressed that Tanya’s support doesn’t stop once the deposit is paid as she is still working behind the scenes to clarify final arrangements. As somebody who hasn’t the patience to make travel arrangements, Tanya’s assistance has been so gratefully received. Thank you Tanya!
