It's Nice To Meet You

As your personal Travel Counsellor, I provide a unique and trusted travel service. With over 10 years’ experience (7 spent at senior management level in a major tour operator) and using the most up to date award winning technology, I can source, plan and tailor make dream holidays world-wide.

I’ve always been passionate about travel. I love sharing my knowledge and giving my customers the best possible experience and service. I know life is not 9-5 and so I’m happy to speak with my customers in the evening or at weekends.

I never travelled much as a kid as we were constantly off at various equestrian competitions, but then I broke loose after University with a J1 visa to Newport in Rhode Island, followed by three round the world backpacking trips over the next number of years. I would work hard, save up and then explore for as long as possible before repeating!

I’ve been extremely lucky to get to visit every continent including Antarctica - which I can’t recommend highly enough, though a dip in the sea there is even more bracing than the Christmas Day swim on Greystones beach!

I’ve done sailing trips in the Maldives and from Croatia to Montenegro, Safari in Kenya, I’ve seen the wonders of Sri Lanka, hiked the Inca Trail and have enjoyed amazing road trips in South Africa, Canada, USA, Australia and New Zealand.

I’ve put together countless itineraries for lots of happy customers and I’ll take great care of your holiday plans because I know just how important they are to get just right!

Put your travel plans in the hands of a trusted travel professional and let me take away all the hassle from you, so all you need to do is sit back, relax, and enjoy.

You will also have the comfort of knowing that you are booking with a fully licensed and bonded company which means your money is protected. Travel Counsellors are licensed and bonded with the Irish Aviation Authority, licence No TA621.

A Journey of Surprises: Cruising the Caribbean with My Daughter
