A New Chapter for Travlux

In 2020, Travlux was launched with a simple ambition: to create a travel business built on genuine relationships, expert advice and unforgettable travel experiences.

Since then, we’ve had the privilege of helping thousands of clients explore the world. From luxury escapes and once-in-a-lifetime cruises to tailor-made adventures and family holidays, we’ve been trusted with some of our clients’ most important memories.

Today, we’re excited to announce the next step in the Travlux journey.

After careful consideration, Travlux has partnered with Swords Travel, a highly respected luxury travel business based in Wimbledon. This partnership represents an exciting opportunity for the future growth of Travlux while allowing us to continue delivering the personal service, expertise and attention to detail our clients have come to expect.

Most importantly, whilst this is a new chapter, the values that built Travlux remain exactly the same.

If there’s a singular topic that we can all relate to, it’s travel and the limitless experiences that can come from venturing across our world. But so much information at our fingertips can be overwhelming… From blogs to vlogs and an array of influencers, how do you know what, and who to trust and what’s right for you? That’s where we come in.

Travel can mean something different to all of us – escapism, adventure, connection – but how it makes us feel is our biggest focus; our emotional attachment to the world. For that, we need to get to know you, so that we can help you see the world the way you want to, while we take care of everything. Trust us to plan the holiday that you deserve.

The Journey So Far

Travlux was founded in December 2020 with a clear vision: to offer a more personal approach to travel.

From day one, our focus has been on building lasting relationships with our clients, understanding what makes each traveller unique and creating holidays that genuinely reflect their individual needs and aspirations.

What started as a small independent business has grown into an award-winning travel agency, trusted by clients across the UK to arrange everything from luxury holidays and cruises to tailor-made journeys and family getaways.

Along the way, we’ve had the opportunity to work with incredible travel partners, explore some of the world’s most spectacular destinations and, most importantly, help our clients create memories that last a lifetime.

We are incredibly proud of how far Travlux has come and deeply grateful to every client who has supported us along the way.

The Journey Continues

As Travlux has evolved, we’ve become increasingly clear about who we are and where we want to go.

While we’re still here to help with all the holidays we’ve always arranged, our passion, expertise and future growth are firmly focused on luxury travel, cruise and tailor-made experiences.

Over the last few years, we’ve carefully considered what the next stage of Travlux should look like and who the right long-term partner would be to support that vision.

Following extensive discussions, it became clear that Swords Travel shared many of the same values that have been at the heart of Travlux since day one:

  • Personalised service
  • Specialist expertise
  • Strong client relationships
  • Attention to detail
  • A genuine passion for travel

The partnership feels like a natural fit and provides the ideal platform for Travlux to continue growing whilst staying true to what has always made the business special.

Why Swords travel?

Choosing the right partner was never about size. It was about finding a business that shared our approach to looking after clients.

Swords Travel has built an outstanding reputation within the travel industry through its commitment to service, expertise and tailor-made travel experiences.

From our very first conversations, there was a clear alignment between our businesses. We both believe that exceptional travel starts with understanding our clients, taking the time to listen and delivering experiences that are carefully crafted around their needs.

By partnering with Swords Travel, we’re strengthening the foundations of Travlux whilst maintaining the personalised service our clients value.

What changes?

For most clients, very little.

Behind the scenes, the partnership provides greater flexibility, enhanced support and access to improved systems that will help us continue to enhance the overall client experience.

Benefits include:

  • Streamlined administration and documentation
  • Improved booking processes
  • Enhanced supplier relationships
  • Stronger operational support
  • Greater flexibility to develop the Travlux brand and service offering

These improvements allow us to spend less time on administration and even more time doing what we do best: helping clients plan exceptional holidays.

What stays the same?

The things that matter most.

You’ll still work with the same people.

You’ll still receive the same personal service.

You’ll still have access to the same wide range of holidays and travel experiences.

And you’ll still be dealing with a business that genuinely cares about every trip it arranges.

Travlux remains Travlux.

The difference is that we’re now even better positioned to continue improving, evolving and delivering the exceptional service our clients deserve.

None of this would be possible without the trust and loyalty of our clients.

Whether you’ve booked one holiday with us or many, attended one of our events, recommended us to friends and family or simply followed our journey, we are incredibly grateful for your support.

We’re excited about what comes next and look forward to helping you discover even more of the world in the years ahead.
