About Gary – Your Travel Advisor Who Actually Enjoys Planning Holidays (Yes, Really!!)

Creating Stress‑Free, Unforgettable Holidays… While You Relax and Pretend You Did All the Work

I’m Gary — founder of Sweet Travel, travel advisor, digital entrepreneur, and the person who voluntarily compares flight times for fun. While most people break into a sweat trying to choose between “Economy Light” and “Economy Classic,” I’m the one saying, “Ooh, look at that connection time!”

Sweet Travel exists for one reason: to help you enjoy stress‑free, personalised, ABTA/ATOL‑protected holidays across Europe, the USA, and Asia — without the chaos, confusion, or 47 open tabs.

Why I Started Sweet Travel

It all began when I became the designated “holiday planner” for friends and family. You know the one — the person who gets a message at 10pm saying, “Gary, can you just check if this hotel is any good?”

Eventually, I realised two things:

  1. People LOVE travelling

  2. People HATE planning travel

So I turned my strange superpower into a business.

Sweet Travel is built on three promises:

  • Personal service — because you deserve more than a generic package

  • Expert travel planning — flights, transfers, resorts, cruises, the lot

  • Complete peace of mind — every trip is fully ABTA/ATOL protected

My mission is simple: make your holiday feel effortless from the moment you enquire to the moment you’re posting smug airport selfies.

What It’s Like to Work With Me

Clients say I’m friendly, patient, and surprisingly calm for someone who handles multiple itineraries at once. I take the time to understand your travel style — whether you’re a “pool all day” person, a “let’s explore everything” person, or a “I’ll decide when I get there” person.

Working with Sweet Travel means:

  • Tailored recommendations

  • Clear, friendly communication

  • Expertly managed logistics

  • Support before, during, and after your trip

  • Access to exclusive group rates and cruise deals

  • Zero stress — because that’s my job

Whether you’re planning a family holiday, group adventure, luxury escape, or cruise holiday, I make sure everything runs smoothly so you can focus on the fun bits.

Your Holiday Is Fully Protected

Booking with Sweet Travel means your trip is covered by ABTA and ATOL protection, giving you complete financial security and confidence. It’s one of the biggest advantages of booking with a trusted travel advisor — and something I’m proud to offer every client.

A Little More About Me (The Fun Bits)

When I’m not planning holidays, you’ll probably find me:

  • Exploring new destinations so I can give honest, first‑hand recommendations

  • Creating fun content for the Sweet Travel community

  • Testing new recipes (especially around Christmas — my pressure cooker is basically a colleague at this point)

  • Dreaming up new ideas for campaigns, visuals, and travel tips

  • Trying to convince people that “just one more cruise” is always the correct answer

I love blending creativity with travel — from designing itineraries to crafting visuals that inspire people to see the world.
