Have you ever wondered what it is like working in the travel industry and how a travel advisor can help you create memories that last a lifetime on your next holiday? Multi-award-winning agent Dan Salmon (owner of luxury travel company Never A Wasted Journey) is sharing all in his new book Never A Wasted Life.
Salmon takes readers on a journey from his original days backpacking to being named Luxury Travel Designer of the Year by TTG Luxury, the inspirational locations he has visited along the way, and the once-in-a-lifetime experiences he’s created for his clients, from chartering an underwater submersible in Antarctica to arranging a skiing trip with an Olympic team in Canada.
He has travelled halfway around the world, seen wonders such as the Great Wall of China and Machu Pichu, and gone off the beaten track on safari trips in South Africa, beach stays in the Indian Ocean, and many more. He’s immersed himself in numerous cultures, making him who he is today – the go-to luxury travel expert for thousands of clients worldwide.
Use his time to save yours and let him introduce you to experiences and people that will enhance your life. Charter a yacht around the Sea of Cortez, dubbed the “world’s aquarium” by Jacques Cousteau, or enjoy a helicopter flight over Robben Island, followed by a private dinner with Nelson Mandela’s former prison guard turned good friend.
Salmon prides himself on taking his time to listen to your desires and understand your goals, then brings them to life using his knowledge and the finest network of contacts in the industry. His itineraries are tailor-made for you, and you won’t find them anywhere else, with all journeys completely customised around you and your needs. Enjoy a service that is highly personalised, attentive and which comes with the utmost discretion.
Wherever you travel there will almost certainly be a special event, such as a cricket match or a concert you may wish to attend. Perhaps you’d like to pre-book a table at the latest exclusive restaurant, or experience sunrise yoga at the top of the Empire State Building in New York? He can help with it all.
Don’t just take our word for it – take the word of the fantastic feedback he gets for his service:
“Dan embodies the hard work and dedication needed to be a true luxury travel designer, always thinking about what’s best for his clients. We had a range of strong, interesting entries that show how vibrant a sector this is, but judges were most impressed by Dan. Huge congratulations from all at TTG Luxury, and the wider industry, which as proved from the reception he got upon winning, clearly supports Dan as much as we do.”
“Simply outstanding. Never A Wasted Journey is fantastic, combining imaginative, bespoke holidays with exceptional service. Dan is the most knowledgeable, patient and interesting travel agent you’ll ever meet. He really cares as much about your holiday as you do and will spare no effort to create a perfect holiday. Deservedly award-winning.”
“Dan’s personalised service was second to none and he certainly added the wow factor to our holiday. We can highly recommend the service and after only being back a few days we are already looking to book to go back through Never A Wasted Journey!”
“Dan was so accommodating, reliable and offered an extra-friendly service, not only helping us source our holiday to start with but recommending fun, unique things to do throughout our stay. Thanks for a great trip and I’ll definitely be back”
“WOW... this happened... I proposed to the woman of my dreams. We had an amazing night and thank you to Never A Wasted Journey for arranging all of our travel arrangements and helping me plan this. We went on a sunset cruise with Champagne and canapés, exclusively hired an underwater restaurant with a six-course dinner created by our own chef, had two deep sea divers swim by with a sign that read ‘Will you marry me?’ and then our DJ played our favourite song. She said YES and it was the best night of my life!”
Salmon’s daughter was born with a heart condition (Tetralogy of Fallot) and was under the care of Great Ormond Street Hospital from any early age, so as a thank you he is donating a percentage from every book sold to the GOSH charity.
