A Luxury Travel Library & Bespoke Consultancy


Inspiration & Discovery

Register for complimentary membership and discover your next journey in a relaxed, informal environment.


Browse our curated Luxury Travel Library in person, borrow books to enjoy at your leisure, attend small, thoughtfully curated events, and share ideas with like-minded travellers. You are welcome to return as often as you wish, allowing your ideas to evolve naturally over time.


The journeys that matter most deserve time—time to explore, reflect, and discuss. They should never feel rushed or pressured.


Inspiration often comes in layers, shaped gradually through conversation, insight, and experience.


We offer a different experience to the traditional travel agent—one where your preferences, interests, and aspirations shape every decision.


When you’re ready to move forward, your plans are carefully developed and formally quoted and booked through GoCruise & Travel, ensuring complete clarity and full ATOL and ABTA protection where applicable.






Design & Planning

Once your ideas begin to take shape, we help you turn them into a carefully considered travel itinerary—through expert guidance and complimentary design and planning.


A key part of this process is the discovery meeting, held either in person or via a virtual call. This is your opportunity to share what matters most—your preferred pace, interests, likes and dislikes, and the finer details that define how you like to travel.


This is time well spent. Rather than presenting multiple generic options, we focus on one or two thoughtfully tailored journeys that genuinely reflect your preferences.


Only when you feel confident and ready do we move to the next stage.


At that point, your travel arrangements are formally quoted and booked through GoCruise & Travel, where Darrin Chadwick operates as a licensed franchisee—ensuring complete clarity, professional handling, and full financial protection, including ATOL and ABTA protection where applicable.






Confidence & Assurance

All travel is formally quoted with no obligation to proceed, giving you the space to consider your plans carefully and with confidence.


When you are ready to book, all arrangements are sold and booked through GoCruise & Travel, where Darrin Chadwick operates as a licensed franchisee.


This ensures:

    • Clear contracting with the selling travel provider
    • Professional handling of all quotes and bookings
    • Full financial protection for your travel arrangements


Flight-inclusive holidays are protected by ATOL, and other arrangements benefit from ABTA protection where applicable.


GoCruise & Travel has been established for over 25 years and forms part of the Fred. Olsen Travel Group, a long-standing and well-regarded name in UK travel.


All payments are made securely either to GoCruise & Travel or directly to the relevant travel provider, ensuring your booking and funds are handled safely at every stage.


Why we're different

Travel Passion is a new kind of travel business, with a dedicated Inspiration Hub in Broadstairs, Kent, as well as an online presence—bringing together inspiration, expertise, and community, while ensuring complete clarity and protection when it comes to booking travel.


Founded by Darrin Chadwick, Travel Passion is an inspiration-led planning environment where members can explore ideas, borrow from a curated Luxury Travel Library, attend small-scale events, and share insights with like-minded travellers.


Membership is complimentary and available by registration, encouraging a slower, more thoughtful approach to planning travel.


Designed as a space where journeys can be properly explored—through ideas, conversation, and shared experiences—Travel Passion allows clients to take the time to get it right.


We offer an unhurried, considered approach to luxury travel, with a library instead of a brochure rack, and relationships rather than transactions.

When you are ready to travel, all arrangements are sold and booked through GoCruise & Travel, ensuring full financial protection, including ATOL and ABTA protection where applicable.
