"Joel acted on my request immediately, nothing was too much trouble. He found me exactly what I asked for. Communication was excellent. I would 100% recommend him to anyone looking to book a holiday."
The Difference
Why People Book With Joel
Anyone can search flights online. What you're really choosing is the person who plans it with you — and that's where the difference is.
“When you book with me, you're not a booking reference. You tell me once what you're looking for, and I look after the rest — from the first conversation until you're back home.”

Don't Take My Word For It
Real feedback from real clients, exactly as they wrote it — or visit Google for the latest public reviews.
"Very friendly and stress free to communicate with. We had a holiday booked within days of being introduced and my kids are over the moon. Something we haven't managed for years. Would absolutely recommend!"
"Joel listens to your requirements and tailors each trip to you personally. I've been so thrilled to have him helping me with my travels recently and I've recommended him to people very close to me who are also very pleased with the service he offers!"
"Joel was so helpful. My partner and I have not flown for 15 years so are quite apprehensive. He put our minds at rest and answered all our questions. Nothing was too much for him."

Joel Tennuchi · Your Travel Advisor
Meet Joel
The Person Behind Every Itinerary
Hi, I'm Joel. I've spent more than 20 years in travel — first learning the industry inside out, then building Tennuchi's Travels around a simple idea: you should have one dedicated advisor who knows your name, your plans and your preferences, not a different voice every time you call.
I started this business because I kept meeting people who'd booked online, hit a problem, and had nobody to turn to. So I do it differently. I get to know who's travelling, what matters to you and what would make the trip feel right — then I research, recommend and refine until it's exactly that. I'm backed by the Travel Counsellors platform, so you get personal service with full financial protection and 24/7 support.
I'm based in Marple, Stockport, and I plan Disney holidays, cruises, honeymoons, accessible travel and tailor-made trips for clients across the UK.
How It Works
Four steps, one person
This is exactly what happens when you get in touch — the same four steps every time, whether it's a Disney weekend or a six-week trip round the world.
Step 1: Tell me what you're after
A phone call, WhatsApp or email — however you like to talk. Where you fancy going, when, who's travelling, what matters most and what you'd like to spend. No forms, no pressure.
Step 2: I do the digging
Then I go away and research what actually fits — the right ship, the right room, the right resort, the right way to do it — and bring you a short list of options with honest prices, not a brochure of everything.
Step 3: We shape it together
You tell me what I've got right and what isn't quite you. We tweak dates, hotels, cabins and days until the plan genuinely feels like yours. It costs nothing to change your mind along the way.
Step 4: I stay with you all the way
From the moment you book I handle the detail, and I'm one message away while you're away — right through to the day you're home and telling me how it went.
