I am a Gold Travel Counsellor this means I am recognised as one of the top performing businesses in the company, I can offer you over 30 years experience in the travel industry having previously worked for Lunn Poly and Thomas Cook. Sometimes it's hard to find exactly the right holiday. High Street agents want you to book their preferred Tour Operator and searching the internet can be very tedious

and time consuming. I have a vast experience of booking holidays and have been quite fortunate to have travelled to destinations such as the Maldives, Mauritius, Jamaica, Bahamas, Cuba, Florida, New York, Las Vegas and California plus many of the Mediterranean resorts. Everything you book with Travel Counsellors is financially protected, The Travel Counsellors Trust provides a financial guarantee that very few other travel agencies can match. The Trust is also more comprehensive in scope than the ATOL protection offered by the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) because it covers all kinds of supplier failures and not just travel arrangements including flights. So whether you book just a flight or a tailor made holiday through Travel Counsellors you can have complete peace of mind.
