We recently worked with Louise Leatherbarrow to plan two overseas trips for our family of five, and we couldn't be happier with the service we received. Louise was highly organised and professional, taking the time to understand our travel preferences and budget. They were also very responsive and patient with all of our questions and concerns. The trips themselves were truly unforgettable. From the flights to the accommodations and excursions, everything was well planned and exceeded our expectations. Our kids had an amazing time, and we were able to relax and enjoy our vacations without any stress or hassle. We highly recommend Louise to anyone looking for a top-notch travel agent. Her attention to detail, extensive knowledge of destinations, and commitment to providing the best possible experience make them the perfect choice for anyone looking to plan a trip. Thank you Louise for helping us create such wonderful memories!

I have booked numerous trips with Louise for many locations US, UK, Japan, Europe, India, Singapore etc. She has great recommendations and is very efficient and ensures everything goes to plan. She has also been very helpful when it has come to dealing with airlines especially during Covid. I have referred a number of my friends to Louise and wouldn’t hesitate recommending her services.

Louise is a breath of fresh air when it comes to the intrinsic knowledge of all of those hidden details, that other travel services just shrug their shoulders at. To avoid any border or visa issues, recommendations on places, to go to, or avoid on, your journey, and whilst it's great to adventure on your own, it's reassuring to know that after getting quality advice you can make the best decisions. Thanks again Louise, You are worth your weight in gold!

We regularly use Louise to help turn our travel wishes into reality. Her experience and expertise in the travel industry is invaluable to us. She is able to organise travel routes or sectors, experiences or accommodation that I would not have thought of or didn't know about. In these post-isolation times I would not consider travelling overseas without going through an agent who can sort out all sorts of issues that we couldn't. Our latest jaunt involved 8 different plane flights to and around South America with a focus on visiting Antarctica and Easter Island. Louise's organisation was superb. The whole trip went off without a hitch due to her meticulous planning. We couldn't recommend her highly enough.

Louise is nothing short of amazing at her job. Her ability to connect with her clients allows her to turn their deepest desires, into the perfect holiday experience. This is what makes her, in my opinion, one of the best in the business. Louise, I can't thank you enough for your professionalism and attention to detail. We have never had a trip run so smoothly and perfectly. You have truly turned us away from large travel agent corporations and found yourself clients for life. Look forward to seeing you for our next trip!

Louise went over and above to organise and book my trip to Japan, it far exceeded my expectations everything was so smooth and I had the time of my life cannot recommend booking holidays thru Travel Advantage enough! Fantastic insight into where to go and Louise suggested places that I hadn’t even thought of and I am so glad she did because I had the most amazing time!

Louise is a consummate professional and makes the task of booking complex trips very simple. Every trip we have booked has required multiple changes which were done swiftly and consolidated into a new itinerary which was easy to follow. Very happy to recommend..

We had some specific requirements for the trip and I was really impressed with how Louise listened and provided an excellent recommendation which ended up being the most wonderful tour! Apart from being an absolute delight to deal with, Louise was very responsive and we were happy with how she answered all our questions and clearly explained our options. I highly recommend Travel Advantage for any travel needs and in particular for removing the stress from organising a holiday. Louise is the expert and she will do a great job for you!
