Meet the team

Janet Redler Travel and Tourism has two principals - Janet Redler and Nick Bardsley - both of whom have been in the trade for many years. The skills and experience each brings to the business means we can truly claim "Relax, you can do no better!"

Jan

jredler@janetredlertravelandtourism.com

Janet Redler is our Chief Executive Officer and, with Jan at the helm, you can have complete peace of mind that your tailor-made tour will be planned to the smallest detail. Passionate about service, Jan isn’t satisfied unless she exceeds your expectations!

Jan has designed tours for travel writers, including from the New York Times and English Garden, individuals, couples, groups of friends and family, and large groups too, some with exacting briefs and others who give a flavour of the tour they would like and Jan takes care of the rest.

Jan’s knowledge and attention to detail means that people come back time and again, with a high proportion of tours booked through personal recommendation.

Most Unusual Tour Planned (so far) – An ancestral tour for ‘Cedar the Welsh Corgi’ from Florida. Alas, no royal bloodline was found!

Scariest Moment – ‘Coasteering’ whilst conducting a radio travel broadcast for Radio Canberra, Australia.

Most Rewarding Moment – When the US Consul General came to listen to a US Youth Choir at Stormont Parliament Buildings, Northern Ireland, during their 2013 tour.

Nick (BA (Hons) Oxon D.M.S.)

As an academic historian who studied at Oxford University in England, Nick takes the lead with our heritage tours, and Nick may be just the contact you need to research your family's roots in the UK and Ireland. When he isn’t busy in the office, Nick is helping his local community as both a councillor and as vice chair of the village hall where he lives.
