Asia and the Far East

Hi, I’m Amy.

I have been a travel agent for over 25 years, having left school and gone straight into a job that I love. The passion I have for my work is still the same as the day I started. I enjoy coming to work, as no two days are the same.

The best part of my job is to help plan those dream holidays from a UK break to around the world itinerary, as every holiday is different and just as memorable. It is so rewarding to help people find the trip they have always dreamed of. With a love of travel, I can draw upon my own experiences to make suggestions and recommendations.

My most recent holidays have been with my family, as now travelling with my two young children is giving me a different outlook on travel. I can sympathise with so many family needs, I’ve got you and will do everything I can to bring your dreams to life, making lasting family memories.

Q&A

I’ve always enjoyed travelling, saw the course at college and thought it would be a great idea! It must have worked as this has been my job for the last 25 years.

Definitely visiting the Orangutans in Borneo, seeing these amazing creatures up close and personal (especially the babies!) was just a sight to behold. I absolutely loved it, almost as much as my honeymoon in Cuba. We did the dinner show at Club Tropicana and it was so colourful and exciting, a real memorable experience.

I absolutely love talking about cruising, the value and destinations on offer for all age groups is brilliant. Honeymoons are always lovely to book as it is a joyful experience for the couple and for me to plan your dream holiday. Since I’ve had my own children, I have a deeper understanding of family trips and can appreciate those special requirements that make a great holiday for parents and kids.
I’ve travelled to Europe, North America, Asia, and Africa, I really enjoy putting together an itinerary I can get my teeth into. Researching different locations is fun and means every day is a new challenge. I do enjoy putting together multi-centre packages. To me that is the perfect workday!

Peru, Hawaii, Australia, This is tricky…..after much deliberation, Canada, Thailand and the Caribbean.

Utilise everyone’s luggage space, pack your belongings across all 3 bags so if a bag goes astray there will be some useful items for everyone in each bag.

Always use an aftersun including insect repellent, why take two bottles when you can take one!
