Hays Travel Poole branch

Poole branch profile

Welcome to the Poole branch, I lived in the beautiful Caribbean Island of Barbados managing a family Hotel and working as a wedding Coordinater for Airtours. I also performed as a Vocalist in Show bands touring all over the Caribbean, USA and Canada. After returning to the UK I went to work on Cruise Ships as a Singer. I was very fortunate to complete 4 world cruises, and cruise many beautiful itineraries on Cunard, P&O, Princess Cruises and Fred Olsen. After 10 years at Sea I decided to bring my travel knowledge back to the UK working for Carnival UK in Southampton then coming closer to home and joining Hays Travel in 2014. I am very passionate about Cruise and The Caribbean and enjoy sharing this passion with my Team in the Poole Branch and Our Lovely Clients.

Lisa is the Assistant Manager and has worked here for 22 years in the Poole Branch – she has visited some fantastic destinations including Thailand, Kenya, and Canada. Julie has been with us for 28 years and has excellent knowledge of all destinations but if she had to pick one place she would also say Majorca. Our second year apprentice Jodie has been with Hays Travel since September 2016 after studying travel and tourism at college. Jodie started her journey with Hays Travel in the Westborne Branch and we are happy to have her in Poole after recently completing her apprenticeship and becoming a fully qualified Consultant. Our newest member is Tom. Tom is our newest member of the Team joining our Travel Academy Programme after being in Customer Service for 7 years. Tom's favourite places to travel to are Canada and Florida and is excited to share his experience with our clients to find them the perfect holiday. Josh, is our Travel Consultant who has recently joined us from the Wimborne Branch. He has lived in Majorca and is very knowledgeable about the area. Skiing is a real passion for Josh and he knows the ski scene well. Josh has been on several Royal Caribbean Cruises, and has recently travelled to India courtesy of Riviera Travel. He visited the Taj Mahal and Ranthambore National Park and was lucky to spot a Tiger.

Although Hays Travel Poole is busy, town centre branch, we have many repeat customers who come and book with us time and time again. I think that's because we offer excellent customer service. As well as offering a huge choice of holidays to destinations all over the world, we are part of the UK’s largest independent agency, so we are able to tailor-make a trip to meet your individual needs. We also offer competitive rates on foreign currency and a buy back service for your leftover holiday money with our new in-store foreign exchange service.
