About Katy

I have been working in the travel industry for almost 20 years. My extensive knowledge and personalised professional travel service will ensure you will have a fantastic travel experience.

I started my MTA business so that I could combine work and family life as I had 3 young children. Now my business has grown up and so have my girls!

I have travelled extensively, although there is always another destination to discover, and it's hard to choose a favourite, I love each country for its own uniqueness, its history and culture. If I had to choose just two, I would have to say Europe, more specifically Italy as my number one. Being of Italian background I speak Italian fluently and have a great ‘local knowledge'. The diverse USA, particularly New York comes a close second, there is just so much to see and do in the city that never sleeps but my talents don't end there…

I always work personally with my clients, assisting them with their needs to ensure they have a great holiday. Through my experiences I have realised that the needs of each traveller are different and I understand the importance of catering for each one individually.

Hop on a train or ferry, do a self-drive, base yourself in a quaint little village that has been the same for hundreds of years, snorkel off the beach on an exotic island, or simply relax by the pool in a luxurious resort…..The choice is yours, am I'm here to make it easy for you!

I have organised trips for numerous families including multi generational, small groups, singles, couples, honeymooners, friends travelling together as well as corporate business travel all over the world including European holidays, cruises, American holidays, Asian and Pacific getaways and much more.

I am a specialist in tailoring travel itineraries to both the well documented and the lesser known destinations and love to create unique experiences for every individual traveller.

I have had the pleasure of organising many travel plans for many wonderful clients, who continue to support my business by returning more as valued friends than clients and am fortunate to have their help to have built a strong referral business. That's the best part about what I do, not only do I provide you with all your travel solutions, but personalise it in a way that makes each trip you take that little bit more special.…I love what I do, it is a very rewarding job!
