Hiking through the Samaria Gorge, Crete
ZOE POPE EBO TRAVEL (PROTECTED TRUST SERVICES) Specialises in: Adventure and wildlife
Q Why adventure and wildlife? A Since Covid-19, I’ve noticed a shift in the way people approach travel – they want to
try something new, step outside their comfort zones and come home with lasting memories. I enjoy planning adventure-style trips because they allow customers to experience a destination in a deeper and more exciting way. That said, adventure doesn’t have to mean high-adrenaline activities. I also love creating more relaxed holidays, for example in Greece, where travellers can explore islands, enjoy authentic food and take part in experiences such as cooking classes.
Q How is business going for you? A Business is going well. My business partner Greg and I launched the company in November 2025, and I’d allowed
myself two years without earning a wage before I might need to re-evaluate! But I’m already taking a wage and have enough bookings to keep me busy. I haven’t received lots of enquiries, but when I am the only agent working for the business, I am happy with a steady flow. It means I can really focus on making sure the standard for every enquiry is the best I can offer.
Q Do you tailor-make all your trips? A As an agency we haven’t yet acquired our own Atol licence, but
this is something that we will work towards in the future, because I do enjoy creating my own itineraries. For now, I’m choosing to work with a selection of tour operators that I have close connections with and can offer the best value and service for my customers.
Q What kinds of clients do you sell to? A I enjoy working with customers who are looking to experience
something new. After working for my previous company, which mostly booked family holidays, this is something that I enjoy doing. I feel I have lots of knowledge in the right places to know how to book and the best companies to use.
