Andrea Hill - Travel Counsellors, Rugeley UK

Andrea Hill - Travel Counsellors, Rugeley UK I'm a travel professional with over 29 years of experience ensuring you have a perfect holiday. In fact, it's not really a job to me - it's a passion!

Hi, my name is Andrea and I look forward to becoming your Personal Travel Counsellor. I have worked in the travel industry for over 25 years and absolutely love my job! I love finding the perfect holiday for my clients, advising on every aspect and making recommendations based on my extensive knowledge. Hearing all about these holidays when the clients come home is my favourite part. For the past

16 years I have worked from home so that I can be available at a time that suits my clients including evenings and weekends and can also fit in with family life. I love going on holiday and have visited many interesting places that I love sharing feedback and recommendations from. Tailor-made itineraries around the USA and Canada, The Far East and South America have become a more recent speciality and something I'm enjoying immensely as the demand for these types of holidays grows. Disney holidays are another passion of mine and I have lots of hints and tips to make sure you get the most out of your experience. Over the years I have organised many holidays for large groups all over the world. My largest group was for 180 Rock n Roll enthusiasts flying from 6 different airports to an event in Tenerife! Customer service is a priority and this is why I love being a Travel Counsellor so that I can offer my clients the service they deserve at a time that suits them. I have access to hundreds of tour operators, cruise lines, hotels, car hire companies etc. I will happily recommend holidays that suit you, rather than just quote the cheapest. My many client testimonials are because I take the time to research the right holiday - just take a read of a few on this page. I always go out of my way to do anything I possibly can to make sure your holiday really is perfect. I book a vast range of holidays from Bournemouth to Bora Bora, so donโ€™t be afraid to ask for something different as Iโ€™m sure Iโ€™ll be able to find the perfect trip for you and your family. I like a challenge! I look forward to speaking to you soon and helping you plan all of your forthcoming holidays both big and small. Thank you for visiting my page!

Sorry for the long post! I've just had my best ever year but I always strive to do even better so...

When I see friends booking holidays without even giving me a chance to quote... not going to lie, it stings! Especially as a self-employed business owner who pours their heart and soul into what I do.

I see Facebook friends etc. posting holiday snaps or chatting about trips they're planning. I realise that booking online might seem quick and easy - there are a million options out there. BUT before you hit that BOOK NOW button, let me give you a little reminder of what you're missing out on when you book with me:

Earlier this year, I had the wonderful opportunity to visit Rotterdam. What an incredible city! While Amsterdam often steals the spotlight for Dutch city breaks, Rotterdam, the Netherlands' second city, offers a compelling alternative. Just as easy to reach, you can arrive at its iconic station in just three and a half hours from London on the Eurostarโ€”30 minutes faster than Amsterdamโ€”and immediately feel a different atmosphere. Itโ€™s also only a 90-minute flight from Manchester!

Rotterdam is not significantly smaller than Amsterdam, but it boasts a much more youthful appearance due to its reconstruction after extensive bombing during WWII. The skyline is marked by skyscrapers, the striking Erasmus suspension bridge, and contemporary architecture, all surrounding an impressive harbour. A visit to the Euromast observation tower is a popular way to take in the city from above, right in the heart of one of the world's largest ports. Additionally, a boat tour of the harbour or an overnight stay on charming houseboats adds a unique twist to your experience.

The vibrant centre of Rotterdam is found in the Cool District. During the day, you'll find chic boutiques, innovative exhibitions, and trendy cafรฉs, while the evenings transform into a lively scene filled with bustling bars, international cuisine, and quirky theater performances. If you enjoy dancing into the early hours, the clubs in the central Witte de Withkwartier area play everything from avant-garde jazz to classic techno.

Romantic couples will fall in love with the Feijenoord district, which offers a delightful mix of city views and trendy dining optionsโ€”be sure to visit the Fenix Food Factory. Meanwhile, the Noord district provides families with opportunities for park picnics, picturesque canal walks, and visits to the exciting Rotterdam Zoo.

Today you will enjoy a full length rail journey on the Bernina Express. Leaving Chur you are surrounded on all sides by gentle slopes peppered with castles. Not content with boasting some of the most glorious scenery the world of rail has to offer, from Thusis onwards the Bernina Express travels along the Albula and Bernina Lines; two masterpieces of engineering. Both completed in the early 1900s, each railway line has UNESCO World Heritage status, successfully and inconspicuously blending the practicality of rail travel into the surrounding awe-inspiring backdrop. Youโ€™ll cross the world-famous Landwasser viaduct, an undoubted highlight of the journey towards St. Moritz, from where the train glides on the Bernina Railway through the Bernina Pass. Before the train starts its descent to the palm trees and warmer climate of Italy, it first climbs to the highest point on the journey at 2328m, to skirt the edge of the turquoise Lago Bianco (White Lake) and takes a moment to pause in front of the glacier at Alp Grรผm. Then, a meander down towards verdant Italy, over the viaduct at Brusio, affording some great opportunities for some photographs of the train as it winds around the 360-degree spiral. There is plenty of time to admire more incredible views as you arrive into Italy - youโ€™ll be there just in time for lunch! Youโ€™ll then take a connecting train journey on to Lake Garda, via Milan. Make your way to your hotel in Desenzano del Garda (if you prefer to stay in a different resort, please ask for details) where you will stay for the next seven nights.

Youโ€™ll have a full week to relax and enjoy the lakeside resort at your leisure. But if you would like to do a little more with your week in Italy, we can arrange day trips for you to other connecting towns and cities, such as Venice, Verona or Milan โ€“ or perhaps you would prefer a trip into the impressive Dolomites mountain range, or a sunset cruise on the lake? Just ask our friendly team of travel specialists to help you create the right balance of sight-seeing and recharging.

My Story

Hi, my name is Andrea and I look forward to becoming your Personal Travel Counsellor. I have worked in the travel industry for over 25 years and absolutely love my job! In fact, it's not really a job to me - it's a passion! I love finding the perfect holiday for my clients, advising on every aspect and making recommendations based on my extensive knowledge. Hearing all about these holidays when my clients come home is my favourite part. For the past 18 years I have worked from home so that I can be available at a time that suits my clients including evenings and weekends and can also fit in with family life. I love going on holiday and have visited many interesting places that I love sharing feedback and recommendations from. Tailor-made itineraries around the USA and Canada, The Far East and South America have become a more recent speciality and something I'm enjoying immensely as the demand for these types of holidays grows. Disney holidays are another passion of mine and I have lots of hints and tips to make sure you get the most out of your experience. Over the years I have organised many holidays for large groups all over the world. My largest group was for 180 Rock n Roll enthusiasts flying from 6 different airports to an event in Tenerife! Customer service is a priority and this is why I love being a Travel Counsellor so that I can offer my clients the service they deserve at a time that suits them. I have access to hundreds of tour operators, cruise lines, hotels, car hire companies etc. I will happily recommend holidays that suit you, rather than just quote the cheapest. My many client testimonials are because I take the time to research the right holiday - just take a read of a few on this page. I always go out of my way to do anything I possibly can to make sure your holiday really is perfect. I book a vast range of holidays from Bournemouth to Bora Bora, so donโ€™t be afraid to ask for something different as Iโ€™m sure Iโ€™ll be able to find the perfect trip for you and your family. I like a challenge! I look forward to speaking to you soon and helping you plan all of your forthcoming holidays both big and small. Thank you for visiting my page!
