    Bespoke Travel Design

    Every great journey starts with you. As a UK-based bespoke travel planner, I design tailor-made itineraries built entirely around your travel style, passions, budget, and must-have experiences. Whether you're drawn to the romance of multi-centre European escapes, the thrill of long-haul adventure, or the serenity of a luxury wellness retreat, your itinerary will be thoughtfully crafted to feel uniquely and completely yours.

    Seamless Booking & Support

    This is where bespoke travel planning truly comes into its own. As your dedicated personal travel concierge, I manage every single element of your trip: flights, transfers, airport parking, train travel, accommodation, cruises, car hire, tours, excursions, dining reservations, travel insurance, and all those special touches in between. My support doesn't stop at booking. I'm with you before, during, and after your trip, so if anything needs attention while you're away, you have a real person in your corner. Stress-free, end-to-end travel management; that's the Wanderlust Escapes promise.

    Curated Accommodations

    Through my extensive global network of trusted travel partners, I hand-pick accommodation that genuinely fits your style and your expectations. Whether it’s an independent boutique hideaway or charming family-run hotel to a five-star luxury resort with overwater villas, every property is selected with care and insider knowledge. Whether you're after barefoot luxury on a private beach or a character-filled townhouse in the heart of a historic city, I'll find the perfect home away from home for every stage of your journey.

    Exclusive Experiences

    The very best travel memories aren't found in a brochure; they're the unexpected, extraordinary moments that take your breath away. Through my network of trusted global partners, I source exclusive experiences that go beyond the ordinary: private guided tours of ancient ruins before the crowds arrive, sunset sailing along the Amalfi Coast, immersive wildlife encounters in the heart of the jungle, intimate culinary evenings with local chefs, and so much more. These are the moments that turn a great holiday into a trip you'll talk about for the rest of your life. As your bespoke travel planner, crafting those moments is my favourite part of the job.

    VIP Perks

    One of the real advantages of booking through a personal travel concierge is access to the kind of extras you simply can't get by booking alone. Thanks to my established relationships with hotels, operators, and travel partners around the world, I'm often able to secure room upgrades, early check-ins, late check-outs, welcome amenities, exclusive rates, and those thoughtful little touches that make a trip feel truly special. It's the difference between a good holiday and an exceptional one; and it comes as standard when you book your tailor-made travel through Wanderlust Escapes.

    And The Best Part?

    Here's something that often surprises people, my bespoke travel planning service is completely complimentary when you book your trip through me. That means you get a dedicated personal travel concierge, a fully tailor-made itinerary, end-to-end booking and support, exclusive perks, and the full security of ABTA and ATOL financial protection; all at no extra cost to you. Exceptional, stress-free, memory-making travel. That's the Wanderlust Escapes way.

Often Asked Questions

  • I ask for a refundable £50 deposit to get started with your bespoke itinerary planning. Think of it as a commitment from both of us to create something really special together.

    Once you're happy with your tailor-made itinerary and choose to book your travel through me, that deposit is fully refunded; meaning you receive a complete, end-to-end personal travel concierge service at no extra cost. From your very first consultation right through to arriving home, I'll be with you every step of the way, with the added peace of mind that all travel booked through Wanderlust Escapes is fully ABTA and ATOL protected.

  • The short answer? Almost anything. I specialise in bespoke, tailor-made holidays for clients across the UK who want more from their travel: more depth, more detail, and more of those extraordinary moments that stay with you long after you're home.

    From cultural city breaks and multi-centre adventures to luxury beach escapes, family holidays, honeymoons, wellness retreats, and hiking expeditions. If it involves incredible destinations and meaningful experiences, I'm your person. I can research, plan, and book every element of your trip, including flights, accommodation, cruises, land and sea transfers, hire cars, excursions, guided tours, dining experiences, theatre and event tickets, theme parks, and attractions. Whatever your travel dream looks like, let's make it happen.

  • That's honestly one of my favourite places to start. Many of my clients come to me with nothing more than a feeling: a craving for adventure, a need to switch off, or a bucket list destination they've always wondered about. And that's absolutely perfect.

    During your complimentary initial consultation, we'll have a relaxed conversation about your travel style, the kind of experiences that excite you, your budget, and what you're hoping to feel on this trip. From there, I'll use my expertise as a bespoke travel planner to suggest destinations and itinerary ideas that genuinely suit you. Sometimes the best trips begin with the simplest brief, "I just want to be somewhere beautiful."

  • Not at all! Though multi-centre holidays are something I absolutely love planning, and they're a real speciality of mine. There's something magical about weaving together multiple destinations into one seamless, flowing journey.

    That said, if you'd prefer to base yourself in one incredible location and explore from there, I'm equally happy to plan that for you. My job is to find the right fit for you; whether that's one destination or five. Every tailor-made itinerary I create is shaped entirely around your preferences, your pace, and what will make your trip truly unforgettable.

  • Getting started is the easiest part! Simply fill out my contact form, drop me an email at laura@wanderlustescapes.uk, or give me a call. I’ll be in touch to arrange your complimentary consultation; a relaxed, no-obligation chat where we get to know each other and start talking travel dreams.

    From there, I'll get to work designing your bespoke itinerary, tailored from scratch around everything you're looking for. Whether your trip date is six weeks or six months away, the sooner we start planning, the more time we have to get every detail just right. I can't wait to hear where you'd like to go.
