India is a fascinating country with many wonderful people. I was lucky enough to stay at the super luxurious Oberoi Hotels.
The Maldives - well, if you have ever dreamed of Paradise, it is here. Barefoot luxury on an island surrounded by crystal clear water and powder white sand is one of the most romantic destinations you can visit.

Travel is my passion since a teenager as my father worked in Cotton Business in Liverpool and I was lucky he took me with me on his travels in 70's and 80's. When my 3 daughters started school, I spotted an advert for a travel job in Heswall. The rest is history! I have worked in travel for 20 years and have experienced over 40 countries, I am passionate about travel and want to share my passion to ensure our clients have simply the best time ever.
Highlights:
- Trekking in Atlas Mountains in Morocco with the help of a mule!
