“John, you said you wanted us to have the best holiday ever — and it has been! We can’t thank you enough.”

I’m John, an Amsterdam-based Travel Counsellor originally from the UK. In my previous life as a corporate HR director, I roamed the world for business and leisure. I’ve had the good fortune to visit more than 80 countries, and I bring my personal experience to bear with every booking I make. If you have a destination in mind, there’s a good chance I’ve been there. Or, if you need help choosing, let me know what you love and we’ll create a custom itinerary together.

As an independent Travel Counsellor, my goal is to build lasting relationships. I pride myself on unrivalled personal service — before, during and after your trip. That means no request is too small and no itinerary too complex. If you don’t come back for more, then I haven’t done my job!

While our relationship will always be one-to-one, I’m backed by the global Travel Counsellors network — one of the world’s leading organisations of travel professionals. That means I can offer the widest range of experiences and operators, your bookings are fully covered by our outstanding financial protection, and I have a network of more than 1800 personal colleagues to call on for first-hand recommendations.

As I work from home, I’m available to chat anytime. Whether it’s a business trip, a weekend break or the holiday of a lifetime, give me a ring or let’s meet for coffee. Let me take the headache, hard work and risk out of your next trip, so all you need do is enjoy!
