I have been helping private clients with a whole host of travel experiences over the past 20 years. From UK overnighters and tiny trip agendas to macro epic adventures both in the UK and worldwide. Over the years I have built up an extensive network of exclusive contacts and exceptional partners on the ground which allows me to put my clients’ needs first and foremost and curate wonderfully diverse itineraries across a wide range of global product.

My trips are tailored and many of my holiday destinations are not featured or advertised, making my little black book of knowledge truly invaluable and this allows me to create absolutely unique travel experiences. I like to think outside the box and dare to be bold, bringing dreams to reality and making the seemingly impossible, possible. I live for those “wow” moments that my trips deliver.

I look after accustomed globetrotters, corporates, digital nomads, “mooners” and solo travellers. Whatever it is – a city break, a macro epic adventure, a foodie tour or a quick-fix tiny trip – I will work really closely with you to help you achieve your goals whilst avoiding pitfalls, so that everyone has a wonderful time! Specialist journeys have included safaris through the varied landscapes of Botswana, exploring Japan with some of the best guides and escaping to a remote private island off the coast of Madagascar.

I always factor in time for one-to-one consultations in clients’ homes or via video. Consultations take 1-2 hours and allow me to gain a deep understanding of your and your family’s unique needs and wishes.

Each holiday is different depending on the destination and time of year. My aim is to become your go-to travel expert and look after all your travel needs.

On average our tailor-made itineraries begin at around £1,000 per day inclusive of accommodation, private guiding and transportation based on 2 people.

After our initial chat about my process, if you would like me to start planning your trip, I charge a fee of £250 per travel week, regardless of complexity or group size. Non-refundable. I dive deep into planning, researching, and comparing, saving you from overwhelming internet searches. With ongoing access to my expertise and network, including 24/7 support, I ensure a smooth booking process and trip experience.

Once payment has been taken I will send you an estimated timeframe for crafting your itinerary followed by a personalised quotation. For complex touring trips your itinerary will be interactive and sent on an interactive platform for you to view in one place. For more straightforward bookings it will be sent in pdf format. You will then review your itinerary and request any amendments. All amendments will be taken into consideration and are included in the cost.

If you wish to proceed I require a written response to go ahead. Depending on when you are departing you will also be requested to send either a deposit which will be between 10-30% or full payment.

Once you have formally confirmed and payment is taken I will then go ahead and confirm all the arrangements and send you your final itinerary. Iwill also consider any additional concierge requirements and before you travel I can advise on entry requirements, what to take, local etiquette and recommendations so that all is left is to start looking forward to your holiday!

Yes of course – I am happy to offer a consultation service if you prefer to book and manage the trip yourself. This starts at £400 depending on the destination and complexity of your trip.
