About Mapping Your Travel

Travel Is Personal. We Think Planning It Should Be Too.

We’re Sarah and Nicola, sisters and the team behind Mapping Your Travel, an independent travel agency based in Mevagissey, Cornwall.

Our own passion for travelling and discovering new places inspired us to create Mapping Your Travel. We wanted to share that enthusiasm with others, using our experience and knowledge to help people plan holidays they’ll genuinely look forward to.

We specialise in tailor-made adventures, expedition cruises and cruise & stay holidays. We take the time to get to know what you enjoy, then help shape a holiday that feels right for you.

The Sisters Behind Mapping Your Travel

Meet Sarah & Nicola

Mapping Your Travel is run by sisters Sarah and Nicola. Travel has been part of our lives from an early age. We spent five years of our childhood living in Germany and, as young adults, spent a lot of time in Seville with our parents.

Our travels continued as we got older. Sarah later spent three years living in Melbourne, Australia, where she worked as a secondary school teacher. Between us, we’ve travelled in many different ways, from cruises and touring holidays to adventure travel and journeys to more remote parts of the world.

Those experiences have shaped the way we see travel today. We know that the right trip looks different for everyone, so we listen, research and help you find the holiday that suits you.

And because we’re a small family-run business, when you contact Mapping Your Travel, you’ll be speaking directly to one of us.

Experience Behind Our Advice

Travel Knowledge That Goes Beyond the Brochure

Our own travels are only part of the picture. We combine first-hand experience with specialist training, ship visits and careful research to help you make sense of the many different ways to travel.

First-Hand Experience

We travel whenever we can, experiencing destinations, accommodation and different styles of holiday for ourselves. It gives us a better understanding of the details that can make a real difference to your trip.

Expedition Cruise Expertise

We are both CLIA Expedition Cruise Champions, Class of 2026. We have also travelled to Svalbard and visited expedition ships there, giving us first-hand insight into this very different style of cruising.

Careful Research

We don't need to have visited somewhere to give it the attention it deserves. We research destinations, hotels, ships, routes and travel partners carefully, then help you compare the options that suit you.

What We Can Help You Plan

Holidays Designed Around You

Every holiday starts with a different idea. Some customers come to us knowing exactly where they want to go. Others simply know they want to experience somewhere new. We can help with both.

Tailor-Made Holidays & Adventures

From multi-centre journeys, touring holidays and wildlife experiences to honeymoons, family holidays, rail journeys and relaxing escapes, we can shape a trip around how you want to travel.

Looking for something different?

These are some of the areas we specialise in, but they aren't all we book. From a family beach holiday or ski trip to a safari, river cruise or something completely different, tell us what you have in mind. If we can help, we will.

Based in Mevagissey, Cornwall, we work with customers locally and across the UK, in person, by phone and online.
