It's Nice To Meet You

Hi there! I’m Joanne, you can find me on Instagram @joannehelpsyoutravel

I love planning holidays and take pride in giving each of my clients the time, dedication and imagination to make every trip unforgettable and unique.

My specialties are:
Bespoke long haul holidays (Think South Africa, Canada, USA, Australia and New Zealand)
Bucket list trips and once in a lifetime experiences ,
Honeymoons and romantic getaways,
Special birthdays, anniversaries and retirement trips,
as well as helping families take long haul adventures

I’ve always had the travel bug and love to get a little bit off the beaten track. I’ve travelled initially in my early 20s while working on board cruise ships, then as a solo traveller and now as a family with my son. I’ve been lucky enough to travel extensively through Australia, New Zealand, and the South Pacific. I’ve holidayed in Europe, the Indian Ocean and Middle East. I’ve backpacked in South America and South East Asia. You would think I’ve seen everything I’ve wanted to - but the bucket list keeps growing!

Travel Counsellors are fully licensed and bonded, that means your money is safe. Being a part of the award-winning franchise, I have access to over 400 suppliers including tour operators, car hire companies, cruise companies, hotel suppliers and all leading airlines, which means I have access to some of the best rates available without compromise on protection, personal service, and expertise.

You can get in touch by phone, email or social media. For your convenience, both during the booking process and during your travels I am available outside of office hours. Whether you are looking to talk through an idea or ready to turn your dreams into reality - please get in touch!

Safari, City & Coast, Is South Africa Your Kind of Holiday?

Safari, City & Coast, Is South Africa Your Kind of Holiday?

South Africa is one of those rare destinations that can mean completely different things to different travellers. For some, it’s about wildlife and wide-open spaces. For others, it’s food, wine, beaches and road trips. Often, it’s all of that in one holiday. The magic lies in how flexible it is. When South Africa fits your travel style, it really delivers. Here’s who it tends to be perfect for.

Is Azamara the Perfect Cruise Line for You? Here’s What to Expect

Is Azamara the Perfect Cruise Line for You? Here’s What to Expect

Last week I was invited to Ringaskiddy ship visit on Azamara Journey. Azamara (previously Azamara Club Cruises) is a very small cruise line, with just 4 ships. All of the ships are fairly similar, so it’s a simple enough one to get your head around. The 4 ships are Azamara Journey, Azamara Quest, Azamara Onward and Azamara Pursuit. The passenger capacity does not exceed 700 passengers on any of t

Having undergone an extensive refurbishment in 2021 it felt like a much newer ship. Catering for just over 2300 passengers, it just goes to show bigger isn’t always best.

We had our first family holiday in September, we had the most incredible stay at Grecotel Hotels & Resorts, and honestly, we couldn’t recommend it highly enough. This was our very first family holiday with our 10-month-old, so it was a big moment for us — and every single aspect exceeded our expectations. From the minute we arrived, the staff were so warm, welcoming and genuinely friendly. Nothing was ever too much trouble, and all our needs (especially travelling with a baby!) were met to the highest possible standard. The food was just fantastic — such variety, beautiful quality, and something for everyone. Every meal felt special. A huge thank you to Joanne, our travel agent, who absolutely hit the nail on the head on every single aspect of the holiday. She thought of everything and truly made it seamless from start to finish. And to make it even better, we flew directly from Cork, which made travelling with a little one so much easier and stress-free. A magical first family holiday that we’ll always remember.

Joanne was responsive, helpful, and so easy to engage with throughout the whole process. Everything was well organised and the holiday went perfectly. It was well planned with flight times, transfers, accommodation etc. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Joanne to others!

We returned from our honeymoon at Ikos Oceania Resort, and I can honestly say it was the most magical, stress-free experience we’ve ever had — all thanks to Joanne. From the moment we got in touch, she listened so carefully to what we were dreaming of and absolutely delivered. Every aspect of our trip was perfectly planned — from the luxury airport transfers to the breathtaking suite with a view, to the romantic experiences and the little touches in the room. She recommended Ikos for its all-inclusive luxury and impeccable service, and it was spot on. The food was exceptional, the spa treatments were heavenly, and the attention to detail at the resort was second to none. It was clear Joanne had a strong relationship with the resort, because we were treated like VIPs from the moment we arrived — including a special honeymoon welcome and surprises throughout our stay. What really stood out was how personal and thoughtful the entire process was. Joanne was always just a message away, even during our trip, checking in to make sure everything was perfect. It felt like having a travel-savvy friend guiding us the whole way. We can’t thank her enough for making our honeymoon so special. If you’re planning a romantic getaway or honeymoon, don’t think twice — you NEED Joanne on your side! We also have just booked our first Family holiday this week, through Joanne! Thank you again,

Aileen O

Cork

As the dust settles on what was a tough few weeks I feel it is only necessary to leave a review. As our holiday began everything was just so perfect, all the details, paperwork etc you had ready and we hadn’t a care in the world, the choice of hotels, tours and suggested activities were fantastic. But most of all in a family crisis you were amazing. From being on the phone at 12.30pm at night to organising all of our emergency flights and even staying awake till 4am to ensure we made the flight and all was ok, I want to just thank you again, It is a pleasure to have booked with you and especially in a crisis you proved to be the greatest contact we had. One thing is for certain we will definitely not be going anywhere without you booking it! I really appreciate everything you done and will be forever grateful.

She replied on the Sunday evening, set up a video call for Monday, reverted on Tuesday with 3 super itineraries & everything was booked by Wednesday!

Joanne planned the most wonderful honeymoon for us. We spent a few days in Lapland and then into Vienna and didn’t need to think about a single logistical thing. We just turned up and a transfer awaited, or the relevant tour guide just showed up. It removed so much stress for me personally. I’m usually the one stressing about these things but Joanne removed every ounce of stress. Everything went to plan (and on time) and we received great advice prior to travel about our trip. The app is so handy too, Joanne loaded our itinerary and each day the activity was highlighted with all the information located in one spot. So useful. I’ve always been pretty independent booking my travel but I’m so glad and grateful to Joanne for booking our seamless honeymoon. We will continue to recommend Joanne and we plan on revisiting working with Joanne in the near future again! Thank you so much from both of us xx
