Hello!

 

Planning your holiday should feel exciting — not overwhelming.

With over 15 years’ experience as a Travel Counsellor, I specialise in designing unforgettable cruise holidays and multi-centre escapes that are every bit as seamless as they are exciting. Whether you’re new to cruising or planning a once-in-a-lifetime celebration, I’ll help you find the ship, the itinerary, and the special touches that make your holiday truly unforgettable.

Most of my clients come to me because they want more than just a standard package, they want someone who genuinely cares.  Someone who knows the industry inside out, offers honest advice, and takes the time to get every detail just right.

When you book with me, you’ll have complete peace of mind that everything’s in hand and that you’re being looked after every step of the way.

I’m available when it suits you, whether that’s a chat in the morning, evening, or over the weekend, and I’ll be by your side from the first ideas to the final check-in.

Your next adventure starts with a conversation — and I can’t wait to help you plan it.

I found dealing with Jay to be the easiest and most efficient way to organise my holiday. From start to finish he covered everything possible thing we would need and had loads of information to give us about our itinerary. Any queries we had he would be straight back to us which was brilliant. He is there at the end of the phone to help with anything. I would definitely recommend organising a holiday through him as he takes all the stress and worry out of it and covers every little detail so that it will run smoothly from start to finish.
