Sam Soulsby - Travel Counsellor

Sam Soulsby - Travel Counsellor A Travel Consultant with over 19 years experience in the industry. I tailor-make bespoke holidays an Your investment is 100% safe.

Being a Travel Consultant isn’t just my job, it is my absolute passion! I have always been intrigued by exploring new destinations and sampling different cultures and have been fortunate enough to experience some amazing trips. I therefore appreciate first-hand how important it is to make memories that last a lifetime. After obtaining my degree in International Tourism Management at Leeds, I took

a gap year to embark on a world trip. Travelling through Asia, Australia, New Zealand, Fiji and America gave me a wealth of first-hand knowledge. Soon after my return, I joined Trailfinders, an award-winning travel company in order to continue to indulge my love of travel. I was then fortunate enough to tick many more destinations off my bucket list, with highlights being visits to Iguassu Falls in Brazil, the Taj Mahal in India and viewing the Big 5 in South Africa. I spent 9 years working as a Tailor-made Travel Consultant and Supervisor. My expertise lies in First & Business travel although I’m more than happy to arrange any type of trip. What I love most about working for Travel Counsellors is that I am able to take time to truly get to know you on a personal level and understand exactly what your requirements are. I can then tailor-make a unique and bespoke itinerary especially for you. Booking a holiday is a very personal (and I believe exciting) experience so it’s imperative to get it right! As an independent agent, I have the freedom and flexibility to find you the perfect holiday match as well as offer you impartial advice along the way. I have no ties or loyalties with specific suppliers – my loyalties lie firmly with you. I work from my home office in Beeston so have the time and flexibility to devote to you, whatever time of the day you need it. As a busy working mum of 3 young children myself, I fully understand that standard office hours are not always convenient! Please also be assured that all arrangements made through myself and Travel Counsellors are fully financially protected through the Travel Counsellors Trust and we are ATOL bonded. What’s more, as a Worldwide company we have 24/7 duty office support. No matter what time it is, or where you are in the world, we are here to help. So whether it’s a luxurious Safari in South Africa, a motorhome self-drive through New Zealand, a cruise around the Mediterranean, or even a simple (yet much needed) family beach holiday, please get in touch. I would love to help you plan your next adventure!

City energy and beach time? The perfect combination 🌊✨

If you love the idea of exploring a vibrant city, then unwinding by the sea without having to choose between the two — these destinations offer the best of both worlds. Think culture, cuisine and iconic sights by day… and sunsets, sand and sea by late afternoon.

Here are a few of my favourite city-meets-beach escapes right now:

Barcelona:
• Iconic architecture, buzzing food scene and easy access to golden beaches
• Perfect for a mix of sightseeing and relaxed afternoons by the sea

Miami:
• Art Deco style, vibrant nightlife and long stretches of white sand
• Ideal if you want glamour, energy and beach club vibes

Vancouver:
• A unique mix of mountains, city skyline and beautiful coastal beaches
• Great for combining outdoor adventure with laid-back beach time

Cape Town:
• Dramatic scenery, world-class food and stunning beaches
• A bucket-list destination with incredible variety

Nice:
• Chic Riviera charm, colourful old town and sparkling Mediterranean waters
• Perfect for a stylish, relaxed European escape

There’s been a lot in the media recently about potential jet fuel shortages ✈️ — and understandably, it’s making some people feel a little uncertain about their summer travel plans.

So I just wanted to offer some reassurance…

👉 So far, I’ve had ZERO flights cancelled for my clients.

Airlines are incredibly good at managing situations like this. In most cases, they bulk buy their fuel in advance and store it away ready. A lot of airlines have already confirmed that everything will operate as planned this summer with no surcharges to worry about.

If any changes are needed, airlines are far more likely to merge passengers onto alternative flights on the same route rather than cancel outright — helping keep travel plans running smoothly.

Another important point 💡
If you’ve booked a package holiday, you’re fully financially protected. That means:

No risk to your money
Full support and alternatives if anything does change
Someone (me!) managing it all for you behind the scenes

And here’s something worth thinking about…

✈️ Clients who already have their flights booked are actually in the strongest position right now.

Their prices are locked in — and won’t be affected if fares rise.

With demand still high, prices are far more likely to increase than drop.

So, if you’ve been sitting on the fence… now is the time to act. Don’t wait for headlines to settle — secure something now and travel with confidence 😊

If you’d like me to check options or put something together, just drop me a message as I'd love to help:

FOREST✨

A forest or woodland holiday is the perfect alternative to the usual beach escape, offering a deeper kind of calm that feels more restorative than crowded coastlines.

Instead of busy promenades and sunbed queues, you get quiet trails, fresh pine-scented air, and the gentle soundtrack of birdsong and rustling leaves. It’s a chance to slow down properly, reconnect with nature, and wake up somewhere that feels peaceful rather than performative. While the beach is about sun and spectacle, the forest is about stillness, space, and switching off in a way that actually lasts beyond the holiday itself.

It's time to embrace your woodland era 🌲🌳
