From solo backpacking across the stunning landscapes of Australia to honeymooning amidst the energy of New York City and the bright lights of Las Vegas, travel has always been at the heart of who I am. There’s something truly magical about helping others craft their dream holidays, whether it’s a family escape to the sunny beaches of Europe or a luxurious cruise through the turquoise waters of the Caribbean.

My very first role in travel was 19 years ago and I still feel the same excitement with every new enquiry – and that’s what makes my work so special. So a little about me, I’m Sam! I’ve been fortunate to share my passion for travel with my husband and our three children, who love discovering new places just as much as I do. As a family, Egypt holds a special place in our hearts. We’ve had the pleasure of exploring its ancient wonders, relaxing by the crystal-clear waters of the Red Sea, and soaking in its rich culture and history. Yet, we’re equally happy with a peaceful getaway closer to home, like a cozy caravan trip in Devon, with its breathtaking coastlines and serene countryside.

Traveling with young children is something I know well, and I’ve experienced the joys (and challenges!) of adventuring across Europe, the USA, and the Caribbean with them in tow. Every year, I make it a goal to explore a new city, and so far, Funchal in Madeira tops my list. With its incredible mix of lush green landscapes, dramatic cliffs, and warm, welcoming locals, it’s a destination that truly stands out.

Over the years, I’ve been lucky enough to experience some incredible moments around the globe. A few highlights include: - Snorkelling at the Great Barrier Reef – The vibrant colours of the coral and marine life were beyond anything I’d imagined. - Camping under the stars on Fraser Island, Australia – There’s something so peaceful about sleeping beneath the stars, on the world’s largest sand island. Touring Cuba in a pink Cadillac – Cruising through those historic streets in a classic car felt like stepping back in time. -Saying ‘Yes’ at the Sacré-Cœur in Paris – I’ll never forget the moment I said “Yes” to Craig at the top of Montmartre. - Riding the toboggan in Funchal, Madeira – what a unique and exhilarating experience! - Helicopter tour of the Grand Canyon – Seeing the Grand Canyon from the air was a humbling yet magnificent experience.

Thank you for taking the time to read about my travel journey! Whether you’re dreaming of a relaxing beach escape, a cultural city break, or an adventure of a lifetime, I’m here to help make it happen. I can’t wait to work with you and create your next unforgettable getaway! Sam x
