JNT Destinations is an Independent Travel Agency, with well-travelled partners, who can offer expert advice on most destinations. We specialise in luxury tailor made travel and have full ATOL protection through The Global Travel Group. This means our client’s holiday and funds are protected should anything happen with the operator. As well as luxury tailor made travel, we supply cruises, package holidays, corporate travel, accommodation and experiences. Our experiences can include anything from a Grand Prix trip to volunteering and trekking in Peru. We offer a personal service to all our clients. You don’t have to travel to a shop, we can visit you in your home to discuss your requirements.

It is not a 9am to 5pm business, we are available to discuss your holiday in the evenings and all weekend. This service is particularly useful to our valued clients who work full time and therefore don’t have the time during the day to discuss their holidays. For any honeymooners, we can offer our “Build a Honeymoon Service” where components of the honeymoon are used for the Wedding Gift List e.g. resort meals, spa treatments and excursions.
