Why Book With Me
Escape the online booking maze!
​
Book a holiday in cyberspace and it comes from a database. Algorithms don't take holidays. Travel professionals do, and we take them seriously.
​
There is no substitute for having a trusted individual at the end of the phone who's not only reachable but accountable.
My mission is simple: to give my clients confidence that everything to do with their trip will be taken care of.
​
Let me guide you through a seamless travel experience filled with personalised touches and unforgettable moments.
​
Here are five reasons why it makes sense to book through an accredited and award-winning travel professional...
#1
I am a real person
My most important quality? I am human. No databases or algorithms...
Being a travel agent is more than a job to me. I am a friendly specialist whose advice comes from extensive personal experience, regular training and a limitless enthusiasm for tailoring your next trip.
​
Imagine arriving in a destination to be greeted, privately transferred and finding your favourite local cuisine waiting for you, all arranged because I took the time to understand your culinary preferences.
​
I believe in establishing and earning trust and use a 'telling not selling' approach to find the right solution for my clients.
#2
I am a specialist
I am incredibly proud of the many testimonials I receive and my recognition for outstanding customer service.
​
Attending travel conferences, events and destination workshops keeps me ahead of the curve, ensuring you receive the latest insights and recommendations.
​
Every traveller should have one thing only on their 'to do' list - to pack!
​
As a travel expert, I look after you from the first phone call or email until you return home, offering impartial advice, building your trip around what you want, making all the necessary arrangements on your behalf, checking every detail, in addition to providing insightful information on your destination, amenities like accessibility features, kids' facilities, room configurations, dining options, and all the other little things that often get forgotten.
​
I understand travel is 24/7 and pick up any problems or enquiries quickly, providing round the clock support.
Trusted Travel. You're Protected.
#3
I am accredited
Travel Counsellors' independent Financial Trust and ATOL bond offer protection on every element of your booking.
​
This means the trips I organise are fully financially protected, taking the stress and apprehension out of what should be an exciting experience.
No part of your trip is at risk, as it might be if booking them separately yourself online.
​
And when things occasionally go wrong - whether it’s a global pandemic, airlines failing, volcanoes erupting or earthquakes shaking – I’m there to step in and get you home.
#4
I am well connected
My established network of global contacts ensures I can give you the personal touch and those added-value extras that can make the biggest difference.
​
From holding seats on popular flights; access to those exclusive deals that don’t even make it to the internet; airport hotels and lounges; parking and the best private transfers; to early and late check-ins; attraction and event tickets; recommended restaurants; and those special insider tips.
​
And my local connections mean I can recommend hidden gems and off-the-beaten-track experiences that you won't find in guidebooks.
I offer a constantly updating portfolio of trusted properties and holiday experiences for all tastes, from well-known leading hotels to lesser-known boutique ones, keeping my finger on the pulse to bring you the newest openings, as well as the latest trends, experiences, regulations and requirements.
#5
I am transparent
I am committed to transparency in every aspect of your travel planning.
​
What you see is what you get. There are no surprises, no hidden fees and definitely no frustrating added supplements.
I believe in clear, upfront pricing and will always provide you with detailed breakdowns of your travel costs before you make any decisions.
​
Helping a client understand the difference between various options and ensuring they choose the one best suited to their budget and preferences is hugely important to me.
​
And despite my gold standard quality of service and expertise, you won’t pay a premium either.
