Jakki Hatton Travel Counsellors

Loved my visit to Uluru and Kata Tjuta - spectacular!

Message me and I can arrange your visit ☺️

Rising ⬆️ dramatically from the Central Australian desert, the huge red rock of Uluṟu is one of Australia’s most iconic attractions ✨.

For Aṉangu, Uluṟu is inseparable from Tjukurpa, or traditional law. The actions of the creation ancestors are still visible around the rock 👣, and their stories are passed on from generation to generation, just as they have been for thousands of years 💬.

Uluṟu is made of sandstone about half a billion years old. It stands 348 metres tall 📏 and has a circumference of 9.4 km.

Uluṟu is at its most stunning around sunrise and sunset 🌄, when the golden light makes the rock’s colours come alive.

Great communications. So quick to organise a 3 stop India holiday. Great value for money- we got an extended holiday, better hotels with an extra stop and two extra excursions for the same price as the local travel agents. Thanks Jakki.

Customer service is still top of my list for 2023 - love getting my client scores:

Lucky to be working from UK this week

such a privilege to receive this feedback from clients who were recommended by their uncle who booked his Honeymoon with me in 2014!!!

Massive thanks for Jakki for helping is to sort our honeymoon plans. We had tried a few other travel agencies before and they were not at all attentive or sticking to the brief/budget we had given them. Jakki on the other hand was working around the clock and was very understanding of our needs. It has been such a huge weight lifted off our shoulders which we have her to thank. We have already recommended Jakki to a couple of colleagues in fact who are thinking about booking a special anniversary trip!

Love getting client feedback:

I would certainly recommend Travel Counsellors to friends and family for future holidays. Jakki has been so helpful in my booking of holiday to Singapore in November this year, and on a previous holiday that sadly not able to go due to illness and Covid. With Jakki's help and understanding of the matter we were able to get our money back from insurance company, without all the paperwork required this would have taken forever. I am so grateful to Jakki for all her help. I will hopefully be booking again for next year sometime.

Mummy wallaby and her joey were watching me watching them from my office today - Did you know I work from Queensland?

still a UK business with all rules and protections provided for UK travel bookings - [email protected]

this news has particular interest for myself and also many of my clients !!! Some clients are booked already (who have applied for travel exemptions as family of residents) but now all vaccinated visitors can enter - New Zealand is still a little way off opening the borders - hope later in the Summer

The UK government has announced that pre-departure testing will no longer be required for travellers returning to the UK and arrivals will not have to isolate until they get a negative PCR test.

Very pleased to have clients depart on their cruises and holidays this weekend - it was a task to help them complete all the regulatory tests and online information - but we got there!

with the new changes these rules are easing for most from October

please message on here or call/email/WhatsApp anytime for travel information and advice:-)
