Get to know us: Travel Counsellors

We’re a global travel business with exceptional customer care in our DNA. We empower people with a passion for travel to run their own travel businesses, taking care of the travel arrangements of more than 450,000 customers each year.

Who are Travel Counsellors?

The innovative, entrepreneurial spirit that Travel Counsellors was founded on over 20 years ago is as life-changing now as it was then. Travel Counsellors was born out of the desire to serve customers with the best travel experiences possible, and to create inspiring career opportunities for people who have a passion for travel.

Now operating as a truly international business across seven countries including The UAE, we’ve come a long way since we were founded in England in 1994.
