Online Travel Agency of the Year 2010/2011 My name is Susan and I am your local Expert Travel Advisor based in Titchmarsh. I got the travelling bug at the age of ten when I travelled across America with my family from New York to Los Angeles. This led to a career in the Hospitality and Travel Industry spanning 25 years. I spent ten years at sea on luxury cruise ships as a Shore Excursion Manager travelling the world and, therefore, have firsthand experience of a wide variety of holiday destinations. I am in a position to pass on my experience to fellow travellers. High-lights of my travels Direct Line 0845 365 1752 2011 ended on a real high for me with a visit to the beautiful Indian Ocean Island of Mauritius. The island is made special by the hospitality of the people who have a genuine friendliness combined with a commitment to quality and service that is hard to beat. The temperatures on this tropical island average in the mid-20s the whole year round. Not only does the island have over 205 miles of palm-fringed coastline but you can explore the Black River Gorges National Park, the Botanical Gardens and many nature reserves. As well as the world-famous golden beaches and eight worldclass golf courses, there are activities such as quad biking and horse riding to enjoy. During my trip I was amazed to learn how much this island has to offer. I visited numerous hotels and my personal favourites were The Residence and Heritage Le Telfair, but there were so many amazing properties I would love to return to. It is truly wonderful as I now have contacts on the Island that are making my clients’ holidays extra special. Mauritius is definitely affordable luxury. Depending on when you travel, a package with flights, transfers and a weeks accommodation in a Superior Hotel can start from as little as £1300.00 per person.
