Sheena Umpleby - Personal Travel Expert

My name is Sheena Umpleby and I have almost 20 years’ experience in the travel industry. It's fair to say that travel has always been my biggest passion in life since I first heard my intrepid grandparents telling their amazing adventure stories. After studying an International Tourism Management degree, I started my career as a long-haul tailor-made travel expert 15 years ago and have never looked back. 

I feel so lucky that my job is to help people create their dream honeymoons, weddings abroad, special occasion holidays and travel itineraries where the most amazing memories are created.

Having always worked in the long-haul tailor-made holiday sector, there are not many places left in the world that I have not gained experience in arranging a trip to, so you can be rest assured that you will be in very safe hands with me organising your special holiday. Personally, I love exploring Europe these days too, so I enjoy arranging closer to home holidays for my customers as well.

Of course, I love travelling and visiting wonderful destinations myself (67 countries and counting…). Australia, New Zealand and Southern Africa are 3 destinations that I have visited frequently as well as having lived in Australia for a while. I have also travelled extensively in South America, North America & South East Asia as well as Russia, Mongolia and China. 

Being a homeworker means that I can be available to talk to you when you are not busy working or looking after the children, whether that’s on an evening or a weekend. How convenient - a Personal Travel Consultant available at times when you are!

It all starts with a chat on the phone where I can understand what is important to you about your holiday, learn what your preferences are and why, and then I can make the best recommendations to suit you. Plus, to make sure your holiday is extra special, I will help arrange all the little extras that make it perfect, such as finding a romantic spot to propose, or the best seafood restaurant in the area, as well as any unique experiences. 

Being part of Holidaysplease means that all of my packages are ABTA & ATOL protected, providing security and quality to every trip - plus of course you have an expert onboard with 20 years’ experience.

So please get in touch via email or by calling me, or simple place an enquiry above.
