We are not like normal high street travel agents or your online travel website!

As an Independent Travel Agent, Taking the Strain Travel are not paid by the hour; we don’t have a set 9-5 jobs, we are self-employed and are paid on a commission basis.

What does this mean for you? It means that we will do our up most to ensure that we provide the highest level of customer service that we can to make you feel at ease when planning your trips to ensure that you come back and use our services again.

Custom Travel Experiences

We take the time to find out exactly what you need and require.

By finding out more about you, your likes and dislikes we are then able to find the perfect holiday or break. We don’t have a filter that you need to select a set type of location or room type. We pride ourselves on our knowledge and experiences and on-going training to be able to create both packaged and bespoke experiences for our customers and clients.

We love helping you to make memories

We love nothing more than helping to create the perfect break and hearing about it afterwards. Make memories now and let us map your future.

With the number of providers that we are lucky enough to have access to means we are not able to just let you enter a destination, date and number of people and away you go. This is because we search for the type of travel that is required for you. We not only search for the right product but also make sure that we are quoting and building your holiday through the best provider for you. This ensures that they are specialists in the type of break you require.
