About Sally

You will always find me researching and planning my next getaway, whether it be a girl's weekend away, a family holiday or a travel conference, keeping me at home is impossible.
I have been to many amazing places around the world, traveled by air, land, sea, river...I've discovered some magnificent hotels and other treasures along the way...been on beautiful river boats and luxury cruise ships with all the service to go along with them, absolute heaven!

These experiences have given me the best knowledge any Travel Advisor could ask for.

My passion is luxury travel and multi-generational family holidays, always making dreams come true at the end of the day. The part I truly cherish, is getting to know my clients on a personal level, which results in the unique holiday experience they are after.

I believe in living for the moment and making the most of your time on this fascinating planet we live on. We are here for a good time, and experiencing all there is to offer with our family and friends is priceless.

"Travel isn't a reward for working, it's education for living" once quoted by famous chef Anthony Bourdain
