Christine Beesley
I grew up in London and moved to South Africa in my early twenties. From there I moved on to Dubai and at that time there was one red light and one roundabout. Those were like the old Colonial days. I travelled to Iran, Oman, Lebanon and Egypt whilst I was there. Three years later I was transferred to Brussels and lived there for six before moving to the USA.
Belgium had more public holidays that anywhere else in Europe so I got to travel extensively on the Continent - I was a keen skier at the time and skied many resorts in the Alps.
I have had my own agency in Mandeville, Louisiana for over 30 years.
Switzerland is one of my favorite destinations, which I visit most years in the summer. I have been a Swiss Specialist since its inception back in 1996.
Apart from Europe, I love Australia and have been an Aussie and Premier Specialist since its inception. I just took my 10th trip and visited Hayman and Hamilton Islands plus the Australia Zoo....it has really grown since I was last there. Also, being a New Zealand specialist, I can assist with itineraries to both destinations. I have slept in an underground hotel in Coober Pedy, climbed the Sydney Harbour Bridge, eaten a witchetty grub, flown in a hot air balloon and ridden a camel. Down Under, you will find great wineries, restaurants, activities and people!
I specialize in creating individual itineraries that make travel dreams come true for my clients. As a Master Cruise Counsellor, I can assist with travels both on land and at sea. I look forward to meeting and assisting you plan your dreams.

Awesome London/Wales

Recommended - Planning a trip with Chris is so easy. You tell her what you want and she gets it. She not only helps you to do your travel list, she adds to it with great recommendations. Chris was very informative on London attractions that we wanted to see other than the normal tourist sites. She even helped explain the underground, Tube stations.
