Sue Bell

Product Director

I am one of the founders of Turquoise with Brian & James – also my husband! My job is to source the product (Hotels, Lodges, Islands and Destinations) that the team use to create itineraries for our clients. Having studied in Edinburgh,  I spent three years travelling the world (unfortunately not staying in the Turquoise hotels)! and found my love for travel and remote destinations. One of my favourite years was spent in Australia, living on an outback station in Western Australia as a Jillaroo – an Australian cow/sheep girl! I love Australia and New Zealand and I am particularly proud of our South Pacific portfolio. We were the first operator in the UK to promote many of the Pacific Islands and I am extremely proud that we are the number one operator out to the Islands of Tahiti in the UK. I am lucky to work with a fabulously passionate team here at Turquoise, who help me discover, promote and sell some of the most beautiful and romantic islands and destinations in the world. My main aim is to ensure that everything we sell lives up to and exceeds our clients expectations.

My advice would be: Don’t try to see beyond the horizon – often the richest experiences are those that you stumble upon because of where you are and who you’re with. Explore, dream, discover and embrace each new experience as a life-changing memory…
