The Travel Expert
Hi there, and welcome to my website!
Did you know I was a travel agent for 24 years before starting my own travel website in 2015? This enabled me to travel all over the world, both for work and for pleasure. I travelled as a single person, with my husband (before the kids arrived), and now as a family of four – so it’s safe to say I have most travel scenarios covered. You can rest assured that I would never recommend anywhere unless I have personally visited, or checked reviews from reputable sources.
Travel has changed so much since I started booking holidays for clients many years ago. The ‘typical’ package holiday has evolved as people seek more choice and experiences. I know when to book a ‘package’ holiday and when to book flights and hotels separately, when to go to a travel agent, and when to go it alone, this only comes with experience.
My experience has helped me secure regular travel slots on TV3, RTE, Newstalk and Today FM, where I discuss various holiday deals and travel tips for their respective viewers and listeners. I have also been acknowledged as one of Ireland’s top travel bloggers in the Huffington Post. The Travel Expert was a finalist in the Irish blog awards, the Eir Spiders digital technology awards and the Accenture digital media awards. I am particularly proud of these achievements in such a relatively short space of time.
My aim is to make The Travel Expert the most interesting, informative and independent travel website in Ireland. I work with reputable brands, hotels and tourism destinations that I value, and I am always open to discuss opportunities. If you want to get in touch to discuss collaborations please email me to discuss your requirements., and view my media pack here.
I value all feedback, so please submit your comments on posts – I read each and every one! So whether you are interested in a week away in Europe, advice on planning your honeymoon, or any other travel related query, l will try to have a post for you. In the meantime why not follow me on social media, you can catch me on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.
Thanks for stopping by and keep travelling!
