Gill Roberts-Duchars

Designer Travel Expert

Since July 2025

Hi, I’m Gill, I have a love for luxury escapes, bespoke holidays, group adventures and I am a self confessed itinerary geek!

After years of organising travel for executives, colleagues, family and friends (and squeezing in plenty of my own adventures to places like Hawaii, Mexico, South Africa, San Francisco, Nashville, Memphis and New Orleans - to name just a few), I decided it was time to turn my love for travel into something bigger – helping others plan trips they’ll never forget.

I love to research destinations and turn travel dreams into amazing holidays– from family villa escapes, a celebration cruise, to once in a lifetime adventures. I believe travel should feel personal, special, and seamless… with a little bit of wow factor thrown in.

My favourite part? Seeing how travel brings joy to people in so many ways – from couples on a dream honeymoon, families making life long memories, to friends finally ticking off that bucket list trip together. I love taking the stress out of planning, so all you have to do is relax and enjoy every moment.

When I’m not planning holidays, you’ll probably find me plotting my own next trip – preferably somewhere sunny, with a cocktail in hand, and a new destination to tick off my ever growing list!

💌 Ready to plan your dream holiday? Please get in touch and let’s make it happen!
