Travel tips and tricks
I always come across some useful travel tricks in the most informative groups I am part of,
Thought this one is cool to share
Every year especially as the Summer holidays approaches i have many phone calls from clients that have NOT booked with me. 9/10 times it is for the same things
- Baggage not included
- No Transfer
- Hotel has not been paid
- Flight has been cancelled, and can not get hold of the booking agent,
as much as i really try my best to offer the best advice and support i can not stress to you before you confirm your holiday get in touch!!!. let me see what i can do (at the same time protect you as a package).
There are many search engines online that offer very lovely starting prices... however there missing a lot of elements (you heard the saying pay cheap , pay twice, it happens!!). A lot of airlines are now just offering as hand luggage (a hand bag size) not a little pull along that is approx £480 for a family off 4 alone return.
when your flights are cancelled your left to organise your hotel as your not protected as a package that can also be frustrating.
if you want to be sure all is included as well as have someone at the end of the phone at all times than what is stopping you from getting in touch,
*let me know what you have seen?. i can help give you the added peace of mind.
- Last month alone i had 4 clients book with an online agent as i was £60 difference, guess what because it was NOT live prices they were called the following day to pay over £400 more....
Pay attention to Luggage, Transfers, live availability........
pay full attension to what is actually included and just run a price check through. i am extremely honest with my approach so if it is a good cost than fine but if its not you will be happy you checked :).

Thank you
Always makes me smile when receiving 😊
Honeymoons are a big sector of holidays and memories I have been doing over two decades. If you are needing to plan yours get in touch
This is what I think truly sets us apart in the industry
From enquiry stage to your preparing for your holiday until returning we got you!
No long call waiting queues , ACTUAL humans ensuring any issues that may occur are put right immediately, resulting in a seamless experience.
If your ever debating booking with a personalised travel guru don’t!!! Things are great when they go well but especially in the height of school holidays to have that added peace of mind is everything
Choose a human to book your holiday with. Who cares and will help assist 24/7
Feedback appreciation 😊
• Always so lovely receiving feedback, no matter how many years I spend in the travel industry, knowing I am still providing the service and punctuality always makes me happy “thank you”
These are very delayed but not forgotten…….
Thank you again for taking your time to send feedback
What’s your thoughts ??????
I have a battle this one as many of you will no!!!
What’s your preference and why?.
Just a couple of lovely feedback posts, I have got recently. now I know how to save feedback a little better ,I will send more often (apologises still a little dinosaur on social media). Never the less I am still so “thank full” got all the lovely feedback
Would be rude not to do a little review of our hotel stay after returning back from my recent trip to Cyprus to attend our friends wedding that was beautiful can I add.
We stayed at the
Board basis was self catering but we added breakfast and I would highly recommend you do that.
Breakfast had lots of variety from a full English to cheeses and fruit and yogurts. They also had lots of fresh pastries and pancakes with an endless supply of chocolate sauce and honey yum ! The service there was fantastic managed by Demetra, Elsa and Judita so friendly, they reserved our table every morning and couldn’t do enough for you (thank you)
The resort had entertainment but you were not forced to participate and evening entertainment in the evening was never heard in your apartment which when travelling with a toddler was bliss!
Nice pool area with a shallow lazy pool for babies
Walkable to the marina/harbour within 20 mins and beach within 10.
Selection off restaurants within minutes from your hotel to suit all budgets
If your looking for a nice standard property travelling with your family that want a relaxing time in Cyprus than this could be for you ✅
Thank you again
Lovely late deal to Marrakech,
I have personally stayed in a riad within the medina and have to say, if your looking for a break with a difference this is what could be for you.
Emerge yourself in the Arabian magic off Marrakech

Thank you once again 🙌
Nothing feels me with so much joy than my clients just having a great travel experience.
It’s feedback like this I get very often to be honest (just saying not bragging at all!!!) that keeps me going through busy days, in those days you can loose track on the impact you make as your in the mindset of getting itineraries all right and just doing what you do
Thank you for your kind feedback 🙌
How many people can relate to this?????

6 years today I t**e the crazy decision to start my own business with Travel counsellors
Taking my 23 years in the industry I genuinely thought this is going to be soooo easy
How wrong was I ?????
Growing my business was the easy part with a mass amount of amazingly loyal clients who I am still so honoured to book memories for as well as all my new clients who joined me along the way THANK YOU
The hard part was certainly
Covid amongst all other life’s unplanned events such as severe weathers, strikes and more.
Planning holidays is not the hard part but the back scenes of ensuring all my clients are taken care of
Pre travel and whilst in resorts requires a lot of time and attention.
My clients are not just a transaction your all important and for that I do my damdest to ensure your holidays go as smooth as possible.
I can honestly say I could never see myself doing anything else and thank you for all that has supported me along the way
I look forward to planning many many more trips and holidays 🙏
