Angela Sutcliffe

Designer Travel Expert

Since July 2021

Based on the Wirral, I’m Angela—a passionate travel specialist with over 25 years of experience in the industry. Travel isn’t just my career; it’s a way of life for my family. With my husband having 30 years of experience in travel, and my son wanting to become a pilot, you can imagine how we all have an input on our holiday plans!

From the very beginning, I’ve loved nothing more than helping people discover their perfect holiday. Whether it’s a once-in-a-lifetime adventure or a relaxing family getaway, I get just as much joy planning your trip as I do my own. If you have a question I can’t answer right away, I’ll always go the extra mile to find out—no itinerary is too complex, and no destination too far-flung.

Over the years, I’ve arranged hundreds of unique holidays for my clients, from exhilarating world tours to hidden gems off the beaten path. My own travels have been just as varied: couples’ escapes, family adventures, UK caravanning, sun-soaked weeks in Spain, city breaks in the USA, magical meetings with Mickey Mouse in Florida, cruises through the Caribbean and Alaska, Middle Eastern explorations, and even getting married in Greece. More recently, I have had the pleasure of exploring Bali, New Zealand, the Maldives and Abu Dhabi.

I know how important your holiday is, and I’m here to make the whole experience—from booking to your return home—as smooth and enjoyable as possible. If you’re looking for inspiration, advice, or just a friendly chat about your next adventure, I’d love to help. Let’s make your next holiday truly unforgettable!
