Frequently Asked Questions

1. Why should I use a travel planner?

Planning a big trip can quickly become overwhelming- especially when travelling with children. 

I help families simplify the process by designing travel that balances adventure, practicality and budget. Through Nadam Travels we’re actively travelling the world as a family, discovering places, wildlife and experiences that truly work. 

My role is to help you avoid the common mistakes and create an itinerary that makes your trip unforgettable.

2. Is this only for big trips?

Not at all.

I help families plan everything from two week holidays to extended travel adventures.

Some families simply want help designing the perfect itinerary for a special trip, while others are planning longer journeys around the world.

3. Will this be too expensive?

My goal is to help families create unforgettable experiences with the biggest impact.

Travel doesn’t need to be luxury to be incredible. Many of the most memorable moments we’ve experienced travelling with Poppy have been simple wildlife encounters, beaches, walks and local discoveries. 

I focus on helping families spend wisely and prioritise the experiences that matter most. However all families are different so if it’s actioned packed luxury or South East Asia on a budget we’ll help you achieve your dream.

4. Do you book the travel for us?

I focus on helping design your travel plan and itinerary.

You’ll receive clear guidance on; where to go // how long to stay // the best experiences for families // practical travel tips.

You remain in control of booking flights and accommodation but you’ll have a clear roadmap to follow.

5. Is this suitable for travelling with kids?

Every recommendation I make is designed with families in mind. Through Nadam Travels we’re travelling the world with our daughter Poppy and learning firsthand what makes travel enjoyable, educational and manageable with children.

From wildlife experiences to slower pacing and practical planning, the goal is always to create adventures the whole family will love. 

6. Is this service just for families?

Not at all; this service is suitable for couples, families, individuals and groups of friends. This can be designing holidays, moving abroad, first trips overseas and pretty much anything in-between. You don’t need to be a family to use our services you just need to be ready for adventure.

7. Where have you travelled to?

It’s a long list that includes the UK (my home base), Australia, New Zealand, Dubai, Spain, Greece, France, Singapore, Indonesia, Malaysia, Vietnam, The Netherlands, Germany, Sri Lanka, Republic of Ireland, Portugal, Turkey, Canary Islands, Belgium, Tunisia, Italy … just to name some of them! I love to travel and even if I haven’t been to your destination the skills, experiences and knowledge picked up in one country can be transferred to another; plus I’m a travel geek so I always pour hours of research into each destination so that you don’t have to.

8. We are in different countries; what time can our discovery call be?

You are in charge here which means I’m happy to have the call on a time & day that suits you so if it’s 3am where I am that is absolutely fine. The questionnaire allows you to pick your preferred time & date.
