I made the local paper this week. A rather interesting take on the Press Release that I sent them, but as they say, all publicity is good publicity. I would like to add that this award was won by all Travel Counsellors equally and not just me. We all work hard to ensure that we offer a unique customer service and we all share the same ethos of putting customers first in everything we do. I’m delighted that the unique customer experience I provide has been recognised and hope this inspires you to contact me to find out how I can help you create memories in 2016!

Happy Bank Holiday!! What are you doing to celebrate? Are you away somewhere nice or spending the day with family and friends? Today is my birthday, a day I share with David Beckham and Princess Charlotte, and I'm being spoilt by my boys. The day started with breakfast in bed and now we're heading up to London for a wander and lunch at a Marcus Wareing restaurant. I'm one lucky girl! Normal service will resume tomorrow and I'll be back in the office working on all your wonderful holidays. Xx

I am so excited to announce that Travel Counsellors has won TTG’s award for UK & Ireland’s Top Homeworking Agency. This is fantastic recognition and I am so proud to be part of a company that enables me to run my own business, putting my customers first in everything I do. It allows me to offer my clients the holiday that’s right for them every time and to create very special, one-off itineraries that you can’t put together yourself on the internet. I’m delighted that the unique customer experience I provide has been recognised and hope this inspires you to contact me to find out how I can help you create memories in 2016!

I really do love getting feedback from clients - it makes my day to know that they are pleased with the service that I am proud to offer... "A superbly professional and straight forward service. I appreciated Nikki's honesty with regards to costs and the options that she presented were carefully and thoughtfully worked out giving my wife and I a good spread of hotels. I am more than happy to recommend to friends and family."

London Tube Strike We have been informed that drivers on the Piccadilly line are planning to strike for 24 hours from 12:00 on Tuesday 26 April, and again for 24 hours from 12:00 on Thursday 28 April. The Piccadilly Line links London Heathrow to Central London All other London Underground lines are expected to operate as normal.

Union Strikes in German airports Good afternoon, We have been made aware of a proposed strike by the German Union Verdi.

The strike will affect services such as check-in, Security, Ground handling and some of the fire brigade services. As a result we are expecting there to be flight delays and potential cancellations.

NEW BALEARIC ISLANDS HOTEL TAX From 1st July 2016 the Spanish authorities have introduced a new tax applicable to all stays in the Balearic Islands. The tax applies to anyone staying overnight in a hotel, holiday home or cruise ship on the islands of Mallorca, Menorca, Ibiza and Formentera. The amount of the tax depends on the Star rating of the hotel, and will range from €1 - €2 per person per day. Children under age of 16 are exempt from the tax and long term holiday makers will have a 50% discount on the tax from the ninth day of their stay. The tax is required to be paid locally directly to the hotel / cruise liner before the end of the stay. The tax is compulsory and now will be applicable to all stays in the Balearic Islands even if the accommodation or cruise was booked and paid for before 1st July 2016.
