It's Nice To Meet You

In 2001, I started my own business, McDermott Travel in Co. Mayo and I am proud to share that 16 years later it grew to be a very successful and award-winning travel company that specialised in honeymoons and luxury travel. So when I decided to take my business on a different journey, I looked for a partner whose ethos and award winning service matched my own. I am delighted to say that I found that in Travel Counsellors.

With over 28 years’ experience in the industry, I offer impartial and genuine advice and guidance on destinations and holiday choices and present you with more diversity, value and choice.

A truly superb holiday is defined by the number of perfect moments you remember. I listen to your requirements and use my knowledge to personalise the best holiday experience to suit you.

If you are looking for a little inspiration, call me today or email to arrange a consultation by appointment.

I highly recommend Emer. Very professional and knowledgeable service. Emer organised a wonderful and memorable trip for my daughter and I to Iceland. Just the right mix of activity and downtime. Great to have a true professional on the job. Thank you.

Emer arranged a trip of a lifetime for us to Western Canada. It was a brilliant holiday and I am very grateful for the expert advice and seamless support Emer offered. She put together a detailed 14-day itinerary for us, involving planes, trains and automobiles. The use of the online app allowed us to manage the logistics of the trip very well and it also facilitated access to trip documents as needed on the road. We took her recommendations on all of the logistics, the hotel bookings, places to see and places to eat. Having the expert knowledge and experience really helped ensure we had a wonderful and memorable trip. Thanks so much Emer, fabulous service and support.

Emer is extremely professional and knowledgeable but it's her personal touch that makes her stand out as a Travel Counsellor. I'd have no hesitation in recommending Emer to anyone, in fact I'd insist they utilize her skills to ensure their pre holiday experience is as exceptional as all of mine have ever been when I have asked for her service.
