2025: Where will you go?

By Gemma Reeve Travel Counsellor

ATOL protection and a unique 100% financial trust When I first pursued my ambition to branch out independently and become an owner of a travel business, I had only dreams and a plan of what my business would become but now, beginning my sixth year, I am quietly proud of the progress made. 2024 saw my business grow 40% and another record year, those Covid years now seem very much in the past.

All of this is down to my clients who have supported me and continue to put their trust in me to get them on their very well-deserved holidays. From my home office in Lindfield, I take care of my client’s travel arrangements , getting to know each and every one, so I can ascertain what aspects of a holiday are importantly for them. Each trip I book is unique, which is why I take my time in creating their bespoke trip tailor made to match their exact requirements and avoid the need for my clients wasting hours going down rabbit holes on the internet with all the frustration that can bring.

Many of my clients find it important that, as a travel agent, I can also speak from extensive career and personal experience. I travel frequently and have added new long-haul destinations of Singapore, Australia and New Zealand to my own travel experience in the last year, always taking care of my clients as I travel. Experience in the details of a holiday is often what makes the difference.

The ultimate endorsement from clients is referring my business to family, friends and colleagues. With around 70% of new business coming from referrals I am always delighted to receive new enquires from new clients.
I sell holidays from a vast range of suppliers, each of which are financially audited and approved for assurance. This provides both quality and flexibility in choice. With ATOL protection and a unique 100% financial trust guarantee you can be sure that your money is safe as well as providing real value.

Travel Counsellors have a 5-star Trust Pilot rating, a Green ‘Which’ rating and have been strongly recommended by moneysavingexpert.com, these independent ratings speak volumes about the security and quality you will receive when booking with me. With around 70% of my new clients coming from referrals from existing clients I always feel that is the ultimate endorsement and as a small business it is always much appreciated.

Booking with me means you have nothing to lose and everything to gain! I do not charge for my service, you can get hold of me at a time to suit you, I am not tied to ‘office’ hours which means if you need a call at 7pm – I can do it! I work around you and you will get so much time back you will be glad you called me. Looking forward to your holiday is all you will need to do. I am excited to see what destinations come my way for 2025. The year has started strong, and I want to thank all my clients for their loyalty.

Living in travel enables me to be knowledgeable about recent hotel openings, new flight routes, deals and destinations, to enable us to land on that perfect choice. Short-haul, long-haul, city breaks, special occasions, multi-generational families, groups; everyone is welcome. Early booking is always a good idea on both price and importantly, choice.
