About us

Actually, it isn’t about us. It’s about listening to what you want. And then creating an individual holiday, just for you.

It’s about using our expert knowledge of holiday destinations and our network of friends across the world to make sure reality exceeds your expectations.

And it’s about going on holiday ourselves. So we can justifiably claim that we never recommend something we haven’t actually experienced.

A terrible hardship, you’ll agree, but it has to be done.

The Ultimate Travel Company was established with the aim of creating tailor-made, luxury holidays and unrivalled escorted journeys. We have over 30 years experience of organising worldwide travel and we have over 40 specialist Travel Consultants who have all been there and done it.

Talk to them about your holiday and you’ll realise why our customers return again and again – and bring their friends.
