Hi, I’m Alison.
My passion for travel really started after training as an interpreter in Spanish, Italian and French. After living in Italy for a year, I started working in the Travel Industry as a reservations consultant for a large Tour Operator nearly 30 years ago and have been addicted to it ever since.
I have had many roles over the years including as a Travel Agency Manager and most recently spent nearly 10 years as a World Travel and Cruise Specialist at Thomas Cook.

I have travelled to many parts of the world and had some amazing experiences both through my career and with my family. I have been with Cruise.co.uk for 2 years now and still get a buzz when visiting a ship in harbour or ideally sailing on her.

If you would like to make use of my extensive travel knowledge, or just enjoy good old-fashioned customer service at it’s best, call me.

I look forward to hearing from you…..
