How does it work when you want to book with me?

Hopefully this step by step guide explains it all! Just a few things from me that I'm often asked about:

🔷 You don't pay any fees for my service - it's completely free! My suppliers pay me when you get back from your holiday, so if you don't book I don't get paid at all.
🔷 I am always happy to chat via a video call or in person if you'd prefer not to have a phone call with me
🔷 I don't only sell bucketlist, luxury or multi centre holidays - quite the opposite in fact! I book a lot of beach holidays, family holidays, cruises, UK holidays and theatre breaks too.
🔷 I work with many of the UK's leading travel companies that you'll be familiar with (such as Kuoni, Gold Medal, Jet 2, EasyJet and P&O Cruises) - if you're interested in booking with one of these companies, please ask me first rather than going online ☺️
🔷 Looking for a more unusual itinerary? No problem! I work with a wealth of specialist and niche suppliers and DMCs (destination management companies) around the globe, so if you're dreaming about it, I can make it happen
🔷 More than half of my business comes from repeat bookers nowadays, and the rest is largely from recommendations and referrals. If you've booked with me and loved my service, or know someone you think I'd be able to help, please feel free to pass on my contact details.

I can't wait to speak to you!

With a bit of strategic thinking, you can effectively turn your 26 days' annual leave in 2025 into 56, by booking time off around the eight UK public bank holidays. Doing so gives you longer stretches of time off and hence the chance to get away for longer – great news for all of us, but especiall...
