Mediterranean Magic Aboard Celebrity Edge: A Family Voyage to Remember

Mediterranean Magic Aboard Celebrity Edge: A Family Voyage to Remember

When you think of a perfect family summer holiday, effortless luxury, cultural richness, and a splash of adventure, our family cruise aboard Celebrity Edge in July 2023 ticked all the boxes and more. My family (two adults and two teens) embarked on a Mediterranean escape that blended historic wonders with indulgent relaxation. We set sail from Civitavecchia, the port gateway to Rome, on 29 July 2

Exploring the Golden Triangle

Exploring the Golden Triangle

India has always been on my travel list, and when the opportunity to attend GX India 2024, I knew it was the perfect time.

Here’s a glimpse into my 5-night journey through India, where I attended inspiring session

Japan - Small Group Adventure

Japan - Small Group Adventure

Let me say from the start, I’m a huge fan of small-group adventures. Over the years I’ve been very lucky to have enjoyed many great trips. However, Japan stands out as one of the best. It has it all. In just an 8-day tour we packed in a massive amount. There is no way you’d get to do as much trying to DIY it. Osaka was the starting point of our tour. After meeting the tour leader, and the rest

Singapore F1 Grand Prix Weekend

Singapore F1 Grand Prix Weekend

During the Covid lockdown, my wife and I got bitten by the F1 bug, following the fantastic Netflix show “Drive to Survive”. We just had to experience a Grand Prix first-hand and where better than a night race in Singapore? As luck would have it, we were fortunate to have family there so we were treated to a weekend of a lifetime by ex-pats who know the city. Flying premium economy is certainly

River Cruising

River Cruising

What an amazing family trip!! After a hectic weekend camping, it was time for a more sedate second half of our 2022 family holiday. A few days on the River Shannon was just what we needed. We collected our 36ft cruiser from Carrick-on-Shannon to set off on our voyage. Feeling confident, after the initial induction, we decided to head north to Lough Key where we spent our first night on the

Moss O'L

We booked our our once in a lifetime trip for our family of five to Lapland last February 2024 with Paul. We initially deliberated on booking all this independently i.e Flights, accommodation , Santa, reindeer rides etc. but we are VERY glad we spoke to Paul first and did this through a Professional Travel Agent and experienced company (Sunway) who made everything so seamless, stress-free and utterly magical. Paul had some great tips and guidance on what to expect, bring etc. which added to our excitement and ease for packing. The whole trip exceeded our expectations and we are still buzzing 3 weeks after returning. Both kids and parents had a ball and we would love to return again someday. Thanks again Paul

I have dealt with Paul a couple of times now, and I have found him very professional. He conducts his consultations with a more personal ethic. I find him excellent at his job. He helps you find the best holiday and travel options to suit your budget, always on hand with queries and different options. Highly recommended!!

J Murphy

We had used Paul for a previous trip this year and the service we received from him then only encouraged us to go back to him for this trip. His extremely approachable attitude and knowledge is very welcoming when you are booking a certain type of holiday for the first time. We hope to plan many more adventures in time to come and Paul will certainly be my go-to person.

F Fleming

We had a great experience with Paul. He took care of our requirements and made some great suggestions around our holiday and what we were looking for. We were delighted to get it booked and are really looking forward to heading off next summer. We highly recommend anyone who is unsure of what type of holiday or where they wish to go, to use Paul. You will not be disappointed.

Paul is brilliant at what he does and he selects really good high class destinations to suit your needs and budget. His experience in the travel industry shines through. The service is brilliant and the MyTC app is so easy to use. I wish more people would avail of the travel app and his professionalism as you can pay on the app and buy gift cards which is very handy for making holidays affordable for every member of the family. It's also great to support local.
