Hi I'm Ellie - Independent Travel Specialist

I am a Independent Travel Specialist based in South Wales, planning holidays and trips without the stress

Ellie Whatley, Independent Travel Specialist

My story

Why I do this

I've always believed that a great holiday doesn't happen by accident. It takes someone who knows what they're doing, who asks the right questions, and who cares enough to get the details right.

I started Escape with Ellie because I wanted to give people the kind of travel experience that online booking tools can't deliver. Not just a flight and a hotel, but a trip that's thought through from the moment you leave your front door to the moment you get home.

I've planned a Caribbean cruise for two families travelling together, a five-week itinerary through Singapore, New Zealand, Australia and Bali, a road trip across Nashville, New Orleans and Memphis, and a trip to British Columbia built entirely around filming locations from the TV show Virgin River. Every one of them was different. Every one of them was planned from scratch.

That's what I love about this job. No two trips are the same, and every client deserves a holiday that's genuinely theirs.

Why clients come back

ABTA & ATOL Protected

Every booking comes with full financial protection. Your money is safe from day one.

Always available

If something changes, you've got my number. Not a call centre. Me, personally.

Genuinely personal

I remember what you liked last time. And what you didn't. The next trip is better because of it.

Drop me a message and tell me where you'd like to go. I'll take it from there.
