Independent travel agent, UK

Holidays planned by someone who actually gets to know you.

I'm Libby, an independent UK travel advisor specialising in personalised cruises, city breaks and family holidays. No script, no faceless booking engine, no packages picked to hit a margin, just honest advice, matched to what you actually want from your holiday.

What I plan

Three kinds of trips I know inside out

01

Cruises

My happy place. Sailed with MSC many times over and know how the other major lines compare, so I can point you to the right ship, not just any ship.

02

City breaks

Short trips built around what you actually want to do there, not a generic checklist of landmarks.

03

Family holidays

Adults-only, family-friendly but not chaotic, big resort or something quieter. I ask the questions that get this right the first time.

Why go independent

Tailored to you, not the algorithm

Everyone's idea of good value is different. What one person calls a great hotel, another would call a disappointment. I make a point of understanding what actually matters to you: the area, the type of holiday, the budget, before I suggest anything.

That means real conversations, not a search filter. Tell me roughly where, what kind of trip, and what you'd like to spend, and I'll come back with options chosen for you specifically, not whatever's cheapest to sell.

Booking it yourself

You do the comparing, the research, and the second-guessing. Reviews and photos only tell you so much, and if something goes wrong, you're on your own with a call centre.

Working with an independent advisor

I do the comparing, based on what you actually want, not what's cheapest to list. One person, accountable before, during and after your trip, with bookings covered by ABTA and ATOL via InteleTravel.
