About Shannon

A real person, planning real trips.

I spent over 30 years in the retail industry, where I learned one thing above all else — people do business with people they trust. That belief is at the heart of everything I do.

Most of my clients come to me after feeling overwhelmed trying to get travel right online — they just want someone they can trust to take care of it.

Now I bring that same commitment to travel planning. As an independent travel consultant working in partnership with Jamie Wake Travel, I offer a genuinely personal service that larger agencies simply cannot match.

I take the time to understand what matters to you — whether that's a family holiday that keeps everyone happy, a romantic getaway without the stress, or a well-earned retirement trip that's been years in the making.

Who I Help

Travel planning for people who value their time.

I work with people who want their travel handled properly — not a DIY booking engine, but a real person who genuinely cares about getting it right.

Busy Professionals

You haven't got time to spend hours researching flights and hotels. You want someone reliable to handle the details so you can focus on what matters.

Couples

Whether it's a honeymoon, anniversary trip or simply a well-deserved break together, I'll find something that suits you both perfectly.

Families

Planning a family holiday can be overwhelming. I'll take the stress away and find options that keep everyone — from toddlers to teenagers — happy.

Retirees

You've worked hard and earned this. Let me help you plan the trips you've been dreaming about, with the care and attention they deserve.

How It Works

Simple, personal, stress-free.

No complicated forms or automated systems. Just a straightforward process built around you.

01

Get in touch

Drop me a message or give me a call. There's no obligation — just a friendly conversation about where you'd like to go and what matters most to you.

02

I listen and plan

I take the time to understand your needs properly — your budget, your preferences, who's travelling. Then I research the best options and put together a tailored proposal.

03

Review and refine

We go through everything together. If something isn't quite right, I'll adjust it until it is. No pressure, no rush — just honest, helpful guidance.

04

Book with confidence

Once you're happy, I handle all the bookings. Your money is fully protected through ATOL and Protected Trust Services, so you can book with complete peace of mind.

Services

Everything taken care of, from start to finish.

I don't just book holidays — I plan them properly. From the first conversation to your return home, every detail is handled with care. Here's what I can help with.
