Travel Counsellor - Anne Marie 2.7

Kayaking in Halong Bay, quad biking in the Cambodian countryside, driving Tuscany for a dinner at a Michelin star village restaurant, climbing Adam’s Peak in Sri Lanka, boating around Capri, getting stuck in Beijing traffic, biking Ho Chi Minh, Vienna and Amsterdam, segwaying in Lisbon, savouring Parisian macarons at Laduree, trying Asian food from street stalls in Bangkok to its fancy Sirocco restaurant (yes the one in The Hangover 2!), celebrating mom’s birthday at the Moulin Rouge, attending a film premiere at the Istanbul Film Festival, getting a palm reading at the Mekong Delta, taking surfing lessons in Sardinia while exploring it in a convertible Fiat just like in the movies, swim dancing in the Atlantic ocean for the first time in my life in Lagos...... These are just a few of the experiences I have been fortunate enough to have had so far.

As you can see, I love to travel and venture. This is one of the reasons I decided to drop out of a career of over a decade in hotels and do the one thing I am passionate about – making travel plans. “You’ve got to find what you love” Steve Jobs once said. I finally did!

Today, I am an Independent Travel Counsellor, assisting customers with their travel arrangements, full or partial, from flights to accommodation, transfers, insurances, tours, etc.

This is a unique concept in travel planning, one I am extremely excited to be part of. It takes the stress, hassle and worry out of researching your options. Why shop around or spend hours trawling the internet for the best deals, when I can do all the hunting for you? Why struggle to find time out of your busy working day/week to catch up with travel agents during strict opening hours, when I can be available evenings and week-ends? Why run the risk of repeating and missing details dealing with different agents, when you can work with one person?

Being independent, I offer both flexibility and impartiality as I have access to an award winning technology with many airlines, hotels and tour operators to pick and match from, while at the same time, not being bound by any. For your total peace of mind, all bookings I make are covered by the Travel Counsellors financial trust. Travel Counsellors is licensed in the UAE under tourism license 675183.

So if you are looking to book your next travels for a long week-end break, ski adventure, golf escape, family holiday, business trip, etc. and if you like the idea of having your own Travel Counsellor, either call me or contact me via email. I look forward to creating the perfect itinerary for you.
