Your personal travel agent, offering 5* expert travel services. ATOL & ABTA protected. U9197 Hello, I’m Michelle, with over 30 years of travel experience.

I thoroughly enjoy collaborating with my clients to ensure they have an exceptional holiday experience. Back in 1994, I tied the knot, and before starting a family, my husband and I relished long haul getaways. However, as our little ones came along, we opted for closer to home European breaks to avoid any potential airline tantrums (and that’s just my husband!). Cyprus became our go to destination, offering an affordable summer escape, which surprisingly cost less than keeping the kids entertained back home. As our children grew, their preferences shifted away from beach holidays, leaving us heartbroken! In 2012, we discovered the magic of Florida, particularly Orlando, and it quickly became our ultimate holiday spot. We’ve celebrated numerous events there – from milestone birthdays to renewing our vows for our silver wedding anniversary. Each trip provides me with valuable insights to share with my clients, making them almost like educational excursions! An Orlando holiday remains a sure bet to bring our boys and their partners together for unforgettable moments. Now that our “children” are in their twenties, my husband and I have reignited our passion for long haul adventures. We jet off for some grown-up fun in the sun, often exploring enchanting destinations in Asia like Thailand, Bali, Gili Meno, Singapore, Japan and Hong Kong. Additionally, we’ve ventured to Canada, Kenya, and various spots across America, enriching our travel experiences and creating cherished memories. Travel is truly a joy for us, whether we’re exploring new cultures or simply basking in each other’s company. It’s a pleasure to turn these experiences into unforgettable journeys for my clients, ensuring their holidays are as special as mine.

CANADA: PEAKS & PRAIRIES OF ALBERTA – 14 NIGHTS FROM £3,949 🍁

Imagine collecting your car in Calgary, turning up the music and setting off towards vast skies, turquoise lakes and mountains that seem to go on forever.

This unforgettable road trip traces a figure-of-eight route through Alberta, combining the Rocky Mountains with prairie landscapes, Indigenous culture, dinosaur country and some wonderfully unexpected corners of Canada.

Begin in Calgary before heading to Waterton Lakes National Park, where dramatic peaks meet crystal-clear waters on the US border. Then follow winding highways through Kananaskis and Canmore, where the scenery is spectacular but the crowds are a little kinder.

Swap the mountains for the otherworldly Badlands around Drumheller, explore dinosaur country and experience the stories, traditions and hospitality of Métis Crossing. You’ll even spend two nights in a Sky-Watching Dome.

The route then returns to the Rockies, with wildlife encounters, turquoise lakes, towering peaks and star-filled skies in Jasper. Add a night on the legendary Icefields Parkway and you have a road trip packed with “stop the car!” moments.

Your accommodation, car hire, flights and itinerary are arranged for you, so you can enjoy the freedom of the open road without the stress of working out the complicated bits.

• Calgary, Waterton Lakes, Kananaskis, Drumheller and Edmonton stays
• 2 nights at Métis Crossing in a Sky-Watching Dome, including meals and activities
• 2 nights Jasper, 1 night on the Icefields Parkway and 2 nights Canmore
• 12 days Full Size Inclusive Car Hire
• Flights

Based on a 3 May 2027 departure. Price includes all mandatory taxes and fees.

RHINO AND CHIMPANZEE SANCTUARIES INCLUDED

Picture yourself bumping along sun-warmed tracks with the breeze in your hair, camera at the ready and Kenya’s wild heart all around you.

Every day brings a new “did that really just happen?” moment. Lions lounging in the shade, elephants wandering past as if they own the place and the rare Special Five of Samburu making you feel like a wildlife expert.

You’ll visit a Rhino Sanctuary and Sweetwaters Chimpanzee Sanctuary, the only place in Kenya where you can see chimpanzees. There are also daily game drives and the option to float over the Maasai Mara in a hot-air balloon.

This small-group adventure has a maximum of 12 guests and just 6 people per safari vehicle, so everyone gets a guaranteed window seat. No leaning across three people to photograph an elephant. Always a bonus.

LUXURY MAURITIUS & RODRIGUES – 11 NIGHTS FROM £2,849 🌴

If you fancy exploring the Indian Ocean a little differently, this twin-island escape could be just the ticket.

Begin in Rodrigues, the quieter sister island of Mauritius. Life moves at a gentler pace here, which sounds rather lovely to me. Stay at Constance Tekoma, perched above the coastline with sweeping ocean views, uncrowded beaches and plenty of opportunities to swim, wander and switch off.

Then continue to Mauritius, where vibrant culture, lush landscapes and picture-perfect beaches bring a little more energy. Constance Le Chaland sits beside the wild beauty of Blue Bay Marine Park, close to the airport but feeling wonderfully tucked away.

With inter-island flights and private transfers arranged for you, the holiday starts with peace of mind rather than a last-minute panic about getting from one island to the next. Always a bonus.

• 4 nights at Constance Tekoma in an Ocean View Villa
• 7 nights at Constance Le Chaland in a Prestige Garden Room
• Half Board throughout
• Private transfers and flights
• 20% hotel saving in Rodrigues
• 30% hotel saving in Mauritius

Based on a 1 June 2027 departure. Includes approximately £19pp in local taxes and fees payable locally.

• Gatwick or Stansted with Emirates from £2,849pp
• Heathrow from £2,875pp
• Manchester from £2,939pp

Upgrades available, including All Inclusive at Constance Le Chaland from £728pp and a Beachfront Villa at Constance Tekoma from £292pp.

Two very different islands, beautiful scenery and plenty of time to enjoy both. Not a bad way to spend 11 nights, is it?

VALENTINE’S DAY IN THAILAND

Thailand is already pretty special, that's why Mr P-C and I have visited twice.. Add home chauffeur service*, Emirates Business Class, private pools and three seriously dreamy stays, and you have the sort of trip you’ll still be talking about long after the suitcase has been unpacked.

From the moment your chauffeur collects you from home*, everything is designed to feel effortless. Lounge access, VIP check-in and a lie-flat seat mean you arrive relaxed, refreshed and ready to enjoy every moment.

Finally, escape by boat to Koh Yao Noi and TreeHouse Villas. Your two-storey treehouse has a private plunge pool, outdoor dining space and a freestanding bath with a view. Because ordinary baths simply weren’t enough.

This is Thailand turned all the way up. With everything arranged for you, the holiday starts before you reach the airport.

EASTER FAMILY ALL INCLUSIVE MAURITIUS – 10 NIGHTS FROM £8,999 🌴

Give the family something to look forward to next Easter with an All Inclusive escape to The Ravenala Attitude in Mauritius.

Imagine sunshine, sparkling seas and food so good it becomes part of the holiday entertainment. Set on the shores of Turtle Bay, this relaxed resort has ten restaurants, so dinner never has to be the same twice.

One night could be a beach barbecue, the next seafood under the stars at a floating restaurant. There are Mauritian specialities, international favourites and hopefully enough options to satisfy even the pickiest eater. We all know that can be the most adventurous part of a family holiday.

While the children enjoy their own adventures, grown-ups can try a cooking class, visit a local market, enjoy dinner in a Mauritian home or find an adults-only space and enjoy a cocktail while it is still cold.

Kayaking, paddleboarding and glass-bottom boat trips are included too. Plus, there’s a 35% hotel saving.

• All Inclusive
• Private transfers

DREAMS OF ZANZIBAR – 11 NIGHTS FROM £3,499 🌴

Zanzibar is having quite the moment, and I can completely understand why.
This holiday gives you beautiful beaches, fascinating culture, delicious food and those dreamy moments where you wonder if you’ve wandered into a travel advert.

Start at Matemwe Attitude in a Swim-Up Villa with direct access to a shared pool. Think white sands, turquoise water and the gentle sound of the tide. Stay on Half Board, with the option to upgrade to All Inclusive if you’d like to open your purse as little as possible.

Then it’s on to Stone Town, where carved wooden doors, spice markets and winding alleyways bring Zanzibar’s history to life. Your private half-day tour is included, so you can explore with a little guidance rather than pretending you know where you’re going.

After two nights at Park Hyatt Zanzibar, finish on Bawe Island in a Sunrise Villa with private pool, your own butler and All Inclusive included — upgraded from Half Board.

• 5 nights at Matemwe Attitude – Swim-Up Villa, Half Board

SAVE £50PP ON SELECTED DATES
SAFARI TO BEACH BY FIRST CLASS TRAIN

From red-earth wilderness to powder-soft beaches, this is an incredible adventure.
We’ve now been to Kenya twice and visited both Tsavo West and Amboseli, so I can honestly say this is a destination that gets under your skin. We had a wonderful time and were lucky enough to see all of the Big Five. There is something very special about being out on safari and never knowing what might appear around the next corner.

Think sunrise game drives, elephants beneath the shadow of Kilimanjaro and magical evenings around the campfire, followed by five all-inclusive nights on beautiful Diani Beach.

You’ll also visit Mzima Springs and travel through the Kenyan wilderness by First Class train to Mombasa.

Finish at Baobab Beach Resort & Spa, swapping safari dust for Indian Ocean views, poolside cocktails and beachfront strolls. I’d personally need to check whether watching volleyball counts as participating.
