What our Travel Counsellors are saying...


Jennifer O'Brien

“I could now not imagine doing anything else. I love being in charge of my own business and even through some days are incredibly busy; it does bring great rewards (not just financial). Being a part of Travel Counsellors inspires me to not only have a better career to be a better person. Not many jobs can say that. I have been inspired to improve my health and fitness, be more a part of my community, structure my family life better and of course travel more!”

Gail Buckley

I just want to let you know that the email offers really do work. I have had a client on my email offers list for almost 3 years. She has enquired about offers before, but never booked anything. She recently received one of my email offers and it led to an enquiry for accommodation only in New York. I sent three quotes, thinking she wouldn't book. However, to my delight, she confirmed a booking yesterday.

Mandy Walsh

I just want to say a BIG HUGE THANK YOU to the IT Team. A couple of weeks ago my laptop just died and I seriously thought I was going to have a heart attack. But the IT Team had ordered me a new one and shipped it to me immediately. I returned the DEAD one and they downloaded all my documents etc and sent me a disk with all my history. It was such a relief to have this all done. So fast and so efficient.

I attended the 'Building your Business' and 'Motivational Marketing' course and got such great ideas on new ways to market my business. I decided to put together a Weddings and Honeymoons feature in my local newspaper and contacted 10 local businesses who offer various elements of any wedding day, for example, a florist and a photographer to ask if they'd be interested in coming on board and supporting the feature. To my delight 9 businesses agreed and paid for almost the entire feature. The full...

I attended the 'Building your Business' and 'Motivational Marketing' course and got such great ideas on new ways to market my business. I decided to put together a Weddings and Honeymoons feature in my local newspaper and contacted 10 local businesses who offer various elements of any wedding day, for example, a florist and a photographer to ask if they'd be interested in coming on board and supporting the feature. To my delight 9 businesses agreed and paid for almost the entire feature. The full editorial was about Travel Counsellors and the different honeymoon option I could offer, along with information about the Honeymoon Gift Registry service and even a honeymoon checklist from Travel Counsellors. After just a couple of hours of the newspaper going on sale, I had 2 enquiries from clients who have never booked with me and even calls from existing clients congratulating me on the feature. I can honestly say that if I had not attended this course, this idea would never have entered my head! You do need to think outside the box sometimes.

“Travel is my passion and makes me happy.

If you love travel and want to be in control of your own life and destiny then it’s a no brainer! Travel Counsellors is the right choice, just do it: it’s your chance to be brilliant!”

Noreen Lane, Re-Training Graduate

When I joined Travel Counsellors I was petrified. I hadn't worked in the travel industry for over ten years. However, I found the training invaluable in that a lot of the material I had learnt in the past came flooding back. I found that the material and training provided was condensed, precise and to the point and extremely helpful in how I operate and run my business. The support provided by our head office in Cork and in Bolton in the UK is second to none. It's reassuring to know that there is...

I found that the material and training provided was condensed, precise and to the point and extremely helpful in how I operate and run my business. The support provided by our head office in Cork and in Bolton in the UK is second to none. It's reassuring to know that there is a person at the end of the phone, day or night, in the event of any crisis. I feel that I am now part of a large family in the new friends and colleagues I have formed!
