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

With over 30 years’ experience in the travel trade you can have complete peace of mind that your luxury tour will be planned to the last detail by Jan, our CEO (Chief Executive Officer). Passionate about service, she is not satisfied unless she exceeds your expectations.

Jan has designed tours for travel writers, including 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.

Her knowledge and attention to detail mean 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.
