However I have a special interest in cruise and longhaul holidays where I feel my experience is of great assistance and an invaluable asset to my clients. Being a Travel Counsellor gives me the time and opportunity to offer my clients the excellent and professional service they deserve. Working from home means that I am available to them at their convenience. So, if you are planning a break away or a special holiday just give me a call and I can put together an ideal itinerary for you. Also remember that Travel Counsellors are fully bonded and licensed here in Ireland so you are fully protected in every way.
