Jemma Kelly - Travel Counsellors An Independent Travel Expert specialising in tailormade itineraries and luxury family holidays. Hi, I am Jemma Kelly and I am your local Travel Counsellor.

I believe that holidays are personal. That’s why you’ll have your own personal travel expert who cares about you and your journey, and will build a holiday that fits you perfectly, saving you the time and hassle of organising everything yourself. The advantage of being a Travel Counsellor is that I am truly independent and not tied to any specific airlines, hotels or cruises. I can build your holi

day to suit your exact needs; handpicked from a selection of over seventy thousand global travel suppliers. It's all about taking care of you, and making sure I find you a perfect holiday; ensuring you have the best experience from start to finish. I am also a Mum of two and know how important it is in choosing a family holiday and getting it right first time. If you need inspiration, I can point you in the right direction. Not forgetting all aspects of your holiday are fully financially protected 100% of the time. If you like the idea of having me arrange your next holiday with peace of mind, I'd love to hear from you.

February round up… (it’s a long one)

It’s been another busy month at
Not only have I been busy booking and planning adventures, but I had quite a few of you away over half-term who needed me too.

It reminded me why it is so important to book with a human and someone who you can call or WhatsApp anytime whilst you’re away. Unfortunately, not everything goes perfectly each time. I had flight changes, a couple of issues in resort, and poor weather, which meant cancelled excursions, etc. I have also had some clients who were unable to travel at all due to ill health and have had to postpone their whole trip, which I have rearranged for them as stressfree as possible.

I’m always at the end of the phone and can help, advise, or adjust itineraries to make the best out of the situation or find a solution where possible. Spending hours on the phone so you don't have to!

February also saw me take a little trip over to Derry with my friends. What a beautiful and friendly city it is!

This month also marks the start of lots of travel events, so each week, I've been networking with supplier partners, hotels all over the world, and tourism boards in order to constantly learn and build on connections.

In terms of bookings this month, here’s a selection of some exciting trips I have planned:

🇺🇸A multi-generational family trip to Florida for 2026
🚢A Mediterranean cruise this summer
🗽New York for Christmas for a family
🇮🇹A family escape to Italy this summer
❄️Magical Lapland for a family this Xmas
🤫Surprise trip for a 30th birthday
❤️Special Twin-Centre honeymoon to New York & Miami
🇬🇷Big birthday trip to the incredible Ikos Resorts

This week marks the start of March, and I’m loving the blue skies from my office window. I'm currently working on Thailand, a corporate trip with a private jet, Lapland, Sicily, Florida, cruise & more.

Lets talk soon and plan your next trip.

Client Postcards from the Maldives.... 🫶

This gorgeous couple have recently had THE best honeymoon after a stay at the very special LUX* South Ari Atoll

Its the ideal honeymoon resort if you're looking for an ultra chic & modern stay, at a 5* luxury premium all-inclusive resort.

My honeymooners decided to opt for the best of both worlds and booked a twin stay in both a Beach Pavillion followed by a Water Villa.

I often recommend this concept to clients so they can enjoy the benefits of both. A private beach villa where you can step onto a white sand beach in seconds, to the exclusive and romantic water villas right by the marine life.

📸 Thank you so much Zoe, for sharing some of your memories and trusting me with your very special honeymoon ❤️

What an unbelievable January it’s been 🫶

You've had me in every corner of the world (virtually), working on an incredible range of destinations—from bucket list trips to Canada and the US, to romantic city breaks for many couples, and epic family holidays to Dubai, Cruises, Ski and all over Europe for some Summer sun. There's been some gorgeous bespoke honeymoons I've created too 💫

I've loved researching new places and creating memorable & exciting plans for you all.

My top selling destination this month was the States 🇺🇸

It’s been my second busiest month on record - ever, working almost every day and often late into the night—but it's all worth it when I've new clients to speak to, even more referrals and recommendations, meaning many new bookings for 2025 and beyond.

So this is just a huge thank you to everyone who booked their holidays with me, and to those who recommended me to their friends and family. Your support means the absolute world.

The countdown is on for so many of you already. And if you've no countdown yet, then get in touch and let's change that! ✈️

Client Postcards from the Maldives.... 🇲🇻

This gorgeous couple recently stayed at the beautiful to celebrate their special honeymoon.

We first met to discuss their wants and desires and what they envisioned their honeymoon to look like.

They then left me to it, to put together some options based on their requirements. It didn't take long before they settled on one of my first options presented to them. And they weren't disappointed!

They split their 2-week stay on the island, first staying in an Island Villa with Private Pool, before ending in a stunning Escape Water Villa with Private Pool.
And look at that floating breakfast 🤩

I'm so pleased they had the most magical honeymoon of dreams and am grateful to have played a part in it ✨️

Thanks for trusting me with your special trip, Elle & Damon 🫶
