Welcome to the Eight Roads Travel Co, a luxury travel agency, owned by John Spencer.
I specialise in designing bespoke, personal holiday arrangements.
From incredible honeymoons to cultural escapes, family getaways to once-in-a-lifetime safari adventures, soothing wellness retreats to energising city breaks, I create truly unforgettable, tailor-made travel experiences for my valued clients.
I understand that as a modern luxury traveller, a personalised, custom-curated experience is the key to a wonderful trip. Seeing a destination in a unique or unusual way is what you crave. I get that. So let me take care of everything, from your flights, hotels, transfers, excursions and even your dinner or spa reservations.
I can arrange it all, just for you.
Why book with Eight Roads?
Trust the expert
I live for travel. I’ve been doing this for over 20 years, and I take huge pride in the knowledge and passion that I offer to you as my valued client. I travel the world to find the places that I think that you will love. I will get to know you, and in turn offer what I know what will be perfect just for you. That sublime hotel room, the best view, the spot-on restaurant. This is my thing.
Keep things simple
I appreciate that you can maybe arrange your holiday, or book your hotel, yourself. However, with so much information out there and so many bewildering options, it can soon become overwhelming and stressful. Holidays though are the best thing in life, and this process should be a pleasure, not a chore. So let me do the hard work. I am always here to help, including at the planning, booking, during and post-travel stages of your holiday. You will always deal with just one person; me. Nothing is too much trouble.
Unlock exclusive privileges
I work with over 4,000 of the finest luxury hotels and resorts around the world, including all of the top hotel groups, such as Four Seasons. My personal relationships with them are long-standing and highly valued. Through my black book of extensive & trusted connections, I can secure true VIP treatment for you. And of course, some fabulous and valuable extra benefits for you on your holiday, such as room upgrades, exclusive rates, complimentary breakfast, hotel credits, late check out, and bespoke and personalised amenities.
Discover best value
I do not charge any hidden costs or membership fees for arranging your personal travel services. I know the right people and have the strongest connections needed to get the best possible value for money for you. My name counts for something; my hotel and land partners know me, and will always look after you in return. I can get you in where others can’t, and when you are, I will make sure that you get thoroughly spoilt during your break.
