Design your romantic getaway travels with as much adventure or relaxation needed to make them memorable, with the expertise of Angela Foks.
With around 35 years of experience in the travel industry, Angela Foks brings deep expertise and meticulous attention to detail to her role as a luxury travel advisor. The first two decades of her career were spent in corporate travel, where she managed complex arrangements for a wide range of demanding clients. Her work included handling high-stakes logistics for major media and entertainment companies such as ITV and the BBC, as well as coordinating seamless travel for on-screen talent and high-profile individuals. This solid foundation gave her extensive practice in operating under tight schedules and reinforced the critical importance of delivering a high level of personal service.
Although corporate logistics formed the backbone of her early career, Angela found that she particularly enjoyed arranging leisure travel for her clients. Over time, it became clear that this was where her true passion lay. Driven by a desire to focus entirely on bespoke holiday experiences, she established her own travel business specialising in leisure travel, transitioning her corporate precision into the world of luxury vacations.

Today, Angela operates as an independent luxury travel advisor associated with Global Travel Collection. This partnership allows her to offer clients the personalised relationship of an independent agent while leveraging the clout of a global network. Through this relationship, she gains access to an extensive portfolio of trusted suppliers, luxury hotels, and travel partners across the globe, enhancing the relationships and industry knowledge she has cultivated throughout her decades-long career.
In her practice, Angela excels at designing complex itineraries where disparate elements connect seamlessly. Whether crafting a pristine beach escape, an adventurous multi-centre tour, or an elaborate multi-destination itinerary, her corporate background ensures that practical travel mechanics—such as flight schedules, transfer times, and connection windows—are handled flawlessly so that the journey feels completely effortless for the traveller.
Among her professional focus areas, honeymoon planning holds a special importance. Angela is passionate about helping couples mark their marriage with a journey that reflects their shared interests rather than relying on off-the-shelf options. She notes that there is something immensely rewarding about “helping a couple create the first journey they take together as newlyweds,” tailoring each aspect to feel distinctly personal. Working closely with each couple, she collaborates to design custom-tailored, bespoke itineraries that perfectly reflect their unique personalities, travel styles, and romantic vision. Rather than relying on rigid, pre-packaged itineraries, her approach carefully balances immersive cultural discovery, effortless luxury, and intimate personal touches. Her experience spans a wide variety of tailored multi-centre destinations—from pairing thrilling wildlife safaris with serene coastal or Indian Ocean retreats, to arranging action-packed Costa Rica itineraries filled with rainforest adventures and beach relaxation, or crafting rich Thailand journeys that combine vibrant city culture with tranquil island escapes, to securing private villas in the Mediterranean. Across all of these, she focuses on finding the right balance between discovery, luxury, and quiet connection.
Journey Options
- Costa Rica – Wildlife, Adventure & Beach
Costa Rica is a wonderful option for couples looking for a honeymoon with a real sense of adventure, combining incredible wildlife and rainforest with activities such as ziplining, rafting and exploring the country’s natural landscapes. Having arranged Costa Rica journeys for clients, I particularly enjoy the way the country lends itself to combining adventure and wildlife with time to relax on the coast.
A honeymoon can be shaped around the couple, whether they want to focus on wildlife and adventure, spend more time exploring, or finish with a few days on one of Costa Rica’s beautiful beaches.
- Safari & the Indian Ocean – Adventure followed by Relaxation
A safari followed by time on the Indian Ocean is a wonderful combination for couples looking for a honeymoon with both adventure and relaxation. Days spent experiencing incredible wildlife and landscapes can be followed by a few days on a beautiful beach, giving couples the chance to completely unwind after their safari.
The itinerary can be tailored around the couple, from the choice of safari experience and style of accommodation through to the perfect island or beach resort for the second part of the journey.
- Thailand – Culture, Discovery & Beach
Thailand offers so much more than a beautiful beach. A honeymoon can combine temples, vibrant cities, wonderful food and cultural experiences with time at a beautiful beach resort, creating a journey with plenty of variety.
I particularly enjoy helping couples find the right balance between exploring and relaxing, whether that means combining Bangkok and northern Thailand with an island stay, or creating a more leisurely itinerary around their interests.
Ultimately, Angela considers the core of her role to be client advocacy and thoughtful customisation. As she puts it, the most rewarding aspect of her work is “getting to know what matters to each client and using my experience to make recommendations that are genuinely suited to them.” For Angela, luxury travel advisory extends far beyond booking high-end accommodations; it is “about understanding the whole journey and being there to support clients before they travel and while they’re away.”
