Nicky Johnstone

Designer Travel Expert

Since May 2025

Hi I’m Nicky and I love all things Travel! I live with my husband Aron and our 3 big children Archie, Max and Ava and not forgetting our jackapoo Bo!

My happiest memories as a child are of family holidays. I can still reel off every holiday I went on and vividly remember that feeling of excitement and anticipation. When our kids came along, we knew we wanted to create special memories for them like our parents did for us and being a family of 5 that takes a lot of research, planning and designing and I love every minute of it!

Our kids are becoming young adults now but we often still travel as a family and they’re always coming up with new places to see and things to experience. Anyone who has travelled with us knows - It’s always an adventure!

With a passion for travel and for crafting unforgettable journeys, I take the stress out of planning by handling every detail. I operate under the Hays umbrella with the multi award winning Designer Travel and you’ll always be financially protected by ABTA & ATOL.

I believe everyone should be able to experience memory making travel and for that reason ‘Inclusive Travel’ is something I’m passionate about. From solo travellers to extended & blended families, I’m committed to designing accessible adventures that you’ll remember for years to come!
