WOULD YOU LIKE TO TRY A 1 DAY VIRTUAL VOYAGE ONBOARD DISNEY CRUISE LINE?

With Disney Fantasy sailing from Southampton next summer, I've had quite a few people contact me asking about the Disney Cruise experience. Yes, it is a more expensive cruise line, BUT when you look at the value per person per day and all the inclusions, it is very good!

Since having visited the sister ship this summer, I now have the ability to send my clients a VIRTUAL VOYAGE CODE.

What this means is that you can virtually set sail from the comfort of your own home, experience a lot of the activities, and see for yourself what a Disney Cruise voyage could look like! It may help make up your mind as to whether this cruise would work for you and your family.

𝐌𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐚𝐠𝐞 𝐦𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐝 𝐃𝐈𝐒𝐍𝐄𝐘 𝐂𝐑𝐔𝐈𝐒𝐄 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐈'𝐥𝐥 𝐬𝐞𝐭 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐮𝐩 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐚 𝐜𝐨𝐝𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐠𝐞𝐭 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐨𝐧 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐰𝐚𝐲!

In the meantime, though, here is a throwback to my time onboard Disney Dream back in August

A few questions have cropped up more and more recently, so I thought rather than keep these to myself, I'd share 3 of my travel tips I've learnt/ used in 2024...

1) MONZO - Whilst I usually carry some cash, the majority of my transactions whilst away are done using my Monzo account. I treat it like a top-up debit card and take advantage of their great exchange rates and preferential ATM international policy. It's also fantastic if you need to split costs with friends/ family using their shared tab function. If you are interested in setting up and getting a card for yourself, message me the word MONZO, and I'll send you a referral link so both you and I get a small referral bonus

2) AIRLO - When I am travelling, it is important I keep connected and have internet access. Whilst EU isn't too bad, for anything further afield, I always get an eSim using Airlo. Rates are good, and by using an eSim, I don't have to mess with taking my physical card out. Your phone must be eSim compatible, but if you would like to try AIRLO, use referral code THEA3928, and you will get 3 euros off your first Sim

3) WINDY - A new app that I got recommended and now can not live without is Windy. With many destinations (especially tropical) never showing correct weather forecasts on google, Windy has far more accurate readings plus the added benefit of webcams so you can see the weather for yourself. Perfect at this time of the year for checking the snow in Lapland!

I hope this helps, and as always, if you ever have any general questions about travelling, don't hesitate to get in contact!

The snow has arrived in Andorra😍! Half a metre deep already and another 20cm ready to drop. The impressive 210km Grandvalira ski area is a paradise for all skiers and snowboarders, with slopes for every skill level. From wide-open pistes to exciting snow parks, there's something for everyone. Andorra is virtually tax-free, so it's great value for money on and off the slopes. Take a look at this offer for the 5th January!!

Flights from London Gatwick
3 hour resort transfer (incl. comfort break)

El Tarter is part of the massive 210km Grandvalira ski area. The snow conditions are good throughout the season (obviously warmer in spring) but you'll often see amazing snow in Andorra when the rest of Europe is struggling.

It's also home to one of the best ski schools in Europe. They'll transform nervous beginners into confident improvers in no time. The speedy and advanced can also choose from a range of classes and clinics to push their skills to the limit.

El Tarter is a laid-back mountain town. Après is low-key with a few bars to choose from. L'Aberset bar straight off the slopes is pretty lively until about 8pm, or head to the hotel's own bar to carry on the party feel.

Not only is El Tarter a good choice for all levels of skier and snowboarder, the resort lends itself to those looking to enjoy a more chilled-out week.

Nestled on the edge of a marina near the easternmost tip of Madeira – an area of wild, volcanic landscapes and rich wildlife – you could be forgiven for not thinking this is actually a hotel at first glance, such is the way it blends so seamlessly into its surroundings. From its terracotta rooftops and whitewashed facades to its palm trees and nature-inspired decor, the whole aesthetic of the resort is quintessentially Madeiran to its core.
Style and comfort go hand-in-hand in each of the rooms, all of which have a fresh, modern feel, and come with a private balcony or terrace, elegant wooden furnishings, and views of the hotel’s gardens or the Atlantic Ocean.

Hello Antarctica 🐧❄️☕🛳...

This is one destination you DON'T leave to the last minute to book... and with that in mind our amazing friends at AE Expeditions have just launched 2027!

Tate of Antarctica is a fantastic expedition that introduces you to the stunning landscapes and vibrant wildlife found on the Antarctic Peninsula. But don't take my word for it, read all about the amazing expedition and what your adventure could look like by clicking the below link: https://inspires.to/experiences/antarctica-with-ae-expeditions-taste-of-antarctica-7qppd

Now you may be thinking "Thea I don't know what I'm doing next month let alone in 2027" but I urge you, if Antarctica is on your bucket list you MUST be booking well in advance. By booking early...
- Save a HUGE 20% (equates to quite literally THOUNSANDS of pounds). These departures sell out and become increasingly more expensive closer to departure.
- Spread the cost - with myTC you have the ability to pay your balance off as and when you want to up until your payment deadline date. Yes this isn't a cheap trip but by breaking the cost down monthly and overtime, we can make this dream a reality
- Best cabins - these departures sell out so booking early gives you the pick of the bunch. The lower grade and best value cabins don't hang around for long
- NO SINGLE SUPPLEMENT - but hurry.... only 10 cabins on each departure benefit from this incredible offer

Don't hesitate to get in contact and let me help you plan your trip of a lifetime!

A bumper day in London yesterday with 2 fantastic events.

I started off enjoying a fantastic champagne afternoon tea courtesy of & . As we dined, we learnt about some fantastic product updates of some of the best hotels in the Caribbean as well as being introduced to some new ones too 😀. Of course, I also had to pick up some tea whilst here.

I then bunkered down in a local Pret (via a pitstop at Buckingham Palace for a picture).

In the evening, I joined / & for a private screening of the brand new Moana 2! Did you know the animated Disney film was inspired by The Islands of Tahiti? Disney's creative team visited the islands of Moorea, Tahiti and Huahine, which were the inspiration for the fictional island of Motonui!!

A huge thank you to everyone for extending an invite to me and welcoming me so warmly to your fantastic events.

Back in the office today and after this giant coffee, ready to tackle all the lovely enquiries that have been sent my way

How on earth is it December already? November went by in a blink of an eye! After a month of being here, there and everywhere, I am so pleased to have my feet on the ground and ready to tackle this month and 2025. Christmas newsletter is already being drafted and will be out in the coming weeks!

The trend of asking me to organise complex holidays continues! Whilst I can (and did book this month) anything from flight only bookings up to multiple location, long duration holidays, I treat each one with care and attention.

A wide range of bookings this month. Great to see Africa becoming more and more popular! Did you know I was a safari specialist prior to launching my business with Travel Counsellors? A sneak peak as to what I booked in last month...

This Balmoral cruise over Easter showcases Portugal’s diverse island landscapes, from the hard-to-reach archipelago of the Azores to the ‘garden island’ of Madeira. You will have the chance to explore the UNESCO-listed city of Angra do Heroísmo, once an important stopover for navigators crossing the Atlantic, and marvel at the Sete Cidades crater lakes on São Miguel island, while Madeira is home to unique levada walking trails, fortified wine and colourful botanical gardens which are best explored with a local orchid expert. Immerse yourself in the Portuguese way of life by indulging in the sweet taste of Madeiran wine and the buttery pastry and creamy custard filling of Pastéis de Nata or relaxing in therapeutic hot springs at Furnas Valley. You will also be joined by wildlife charity ORCA, who will have conservationists on board to help you spot a variety of marine life from Balmoral, while Horta is ideal for dolphin and whale watching tours.

🖤 Black Friday is already here in the world of travel🖤

And whilst there are tempting deals all around, remember that when you book with me, it's never just a transaction.

I take pride in crafting holidays with the care and detail that you expect and deserve, ensuring your travel experience is seamless from start to finish.

If you find something online, before you press the book, please consider sending it over to me to see if I can get the same for similar. More often than not, I am the same price as online, if not better, and if that's not the case, then I'll be honest and allow you to make an informed decision.

I book everything and anything. Today alone, I've booked flight only, a complex tailor-made itinerary around Europe, and a family holiday to Portugal. Nothing is too big or too small for me to look after.

Plus, enjoy the peace of mind that comes with our financial protection and expert advice
