It's Nice To Meet You

Hello,

Thank you for stopping by, I'm very pleased to share my passion & dreams for travel that all have started at a very young age when I was just about 5 years old kid!!

I still remember spending hours flipping pages of my dad's Travels Photo Album, looking at different places & feeling the excitement, thrill and wonders of this magical world. My only dream since I was a small kid is to travel the world!!! growing older as a teenager, I would go and study on the rooftop at night to watch Airplanes blinking at me with tiny lights from a distance, drawing white straight lines in the sky making my heart jump of excitement dreaming of being there one day ….. in the sky.

Today, I feel super fortunate, blessed & proud that I have got the opportunity through my 15 years career experience in Travel & Hospitality to visit more than 50% of the globe. Although I might not have been yet to the other half of the glob, however, thanks to education, knowledge & passion, I've created amazing experiences for honeymooners, families, winter/ski holiday makers, adventures junkies or just sun & sky lovers. During my 10 years work experience with Emirates Airlines, I have designed great memories for Royal Families, VIP's & IO Members (Emirates Invitation Only Members), manifesting ''out of the world'' travel ideas whether it is to some of the most exotic places a man would ever imagine, a frozen lands expeditions, personalized & exclusive shopping trips, or as simple as staying on a private island, and many more of what this beautiful planet abundantly offers us.

I am very glad to be part of the Travel Counsellors team to help you create some very special moments that will always stay in your heart, soul & mind.

*You are the Journey *

I’ve been dealing with Basel for over 5 years now, and I honestly couldn’t ask for a better travel counselor! His attention to detail, professionalism, and ability to understand exactly what we need for every trip is exceptional. Basel always goes above and beyond to make sure everything runs smoothly, from planning to execution, and that truly makes every journey stress-free and enjoyable. It’s rare to find someone so dedicated and reliable, and I’m so grateful to have him handling all our travel arrangements. Highly recommend him to anyone looking for top-notch service!

Basel is creative, polite, understanding and patient, although I have given him many calls & messages, yet he is always accommodating. He gives multiple options based on your budget and ensure the trip is well planned & seamless while maintain a reasonable pricing. If you are faced with any challenge during your trip, he is responsive and always there to help. The App is great for making payment easily without the need to deposit in a bank and all trip details is saved on the app. I strongly recommend Basel specially for itineraries & cruises.

This was our best family trip ever, thank you Basel Travel Counsellors. Highly recommended. The itinerary was very well thought out with great attention to detail. It all revolved around our preferences and what we like/dislike. Not a single disappointment during the whole trip. All vans were in good condition, with nice drivers, amazing hotels, amazing sequence of events and tours. We can not thank you enough.

Nothing to say, apart from saying Basel is the best travel agent I’ve dealt with in my life. From planning to the trip, everything was well-organized and seamless.

Basel was excellent in organizing our recent trip to Dubai and Cairo we had a problem returning to Dubai. He was a personal assistant in rearranging our scheduled flight several times this was way over what was expected. Cheers to Basel! I could not recommend him more. At times not leaving us stranded in strange places.

Basel's strengths come naturally from his passion for travel and his helpful attitude. In addition to his wonderful sense of creativity. Basel took care of my trip to South America that included around 14 flights & 10 hotel stays. He didn't only make sure that I get best deals on all domestic sectors, he studied the fare rules and luggage allowance for each airline to avoid any surprises. Basel's has saved me money by not looking for the cheapest options rather for the best value. Lastly, I realised the importance of having a caring travel agent, when Basel called me from UAE to Cusco in Peru (despite the huge time difference) to make sure I get on my train trip to Machu Picchu when my driver was unable to reach me.
