About Us — Aspen Travel
Aspen Travel isn’t some online-only booking site hiding behind a chatbot. We’re a real, independent, award-winning travel agency with a bricks-and-mortar base in Sale, Greater Manchester, and we’ve been in the game for over 30 years. From our shop in the heart of Trafford, we’ve helped thousands of travellers get from “I wish I could” to “I just did.”
We design holidays, tours, cruises, and adventures for every type of traveller—whether you want a luxury villa in the Med, a rail journey through the Swiss Alps, an escorted tour of Vietnam, a ski trip to the French Alps, or a river cruise along the Danube. We also work with top names in travel—think Riviera Travel, Titan, Hurtigruten, APT, and more—so our customers get competitive prices, exclusive offers, and a level of personal service you don’t get when you’re just another booking reference number online.
Being ABTA and ATOL protected means you can book with us knowing your money is safe and your holiday is covered, even if the unexpected happens. That protection matters, and we don’t take it lightly.
Our team is made up of people who live and breathe travel. We’ve actually been to the places we recommend—walked the streets, eaten the food, navigated the airports, and tested the tours—so we can give you advice based on first-hand experience, not guesswork.
From Sale, just minutes from Manchester city centre and easily reached by tram, bus, or car, we serve customers from across Greater Manchester, Cheshire, and beyond. Many of our clients have been booking with us for decades, and they keep coming back for one reason: we do what we say we’ll do, and we do it well.
If you want the cheapest-possible, lowest-effort trip, book it online. But if you want a holiday planned with care, insider knowledge, and the backing of a reputable travel agency that’s been around long enough to know what works—we’re Aspen Travel, and we’ve got you covered.
