Anna Roberto

London, UK Travel Agent
Specialise in Film and Commercial
I work with a wide range of production companies
I work with a wide range of production companies

Anna has worked in the travel industry for 30 years, arranging travel for the media, film, and TV production companies, where attention to detail is of paramount importance, for more than 25 years. Anna started working for the industry stalwart Uniglobe Travel under the YTS Apprenticeship scheme before they were taken over a year later by Portman Travel. Anna worked for Portman for the next few years in various roles, developing a full understanding of the corporate travel industry.

However, it was in 1999 when Anna made by far the most significant step in her career, moving to MSW Premier Travel (MSW) and dealing with clients related to films and advertising. Anna quickly fell in love with this demanding, fast-paced industry, realizing she had found the side of the travel industry where she was best suited. This is where Anna's career and reputation began to flourish. The aspect of her career that Anna is most proud of is the number of clients from the MSW years who still use her service to this day.

In 2000, MSW was acquired by Chambers Travel, who very quickly realized the excellent levels of service Anna provided to her clients and how much they valued her. So, she was very soon promoted to the Chambers Elite Team, dealing with demanding, high-profile clients and accounts where, if anything went wrong, they would come in to turn matters around and rescue the account.

However, Anna had always dreamed of owning her own business. Therefore, at the start of 2006, with the support of many of her loyal clients, Anna decided to fulfill her ambition, and thus Bertie Travel was born. Supported by Global Travel Collection, the business grew and prospered. Then came Covid-19; no world event has ever come close to causing the devastating effect that Covid-19 has had on the travel industry. As with every other travel company, the pandemic was extremely challenging for Anna, but she was able to generate enough business by diversifying into markets such as high-net-worth individuals and SME companies to keep Bertie Travel flourishing. Anna achieved this by providing the same meticulous, individual levels of service she has provided to the media and TV/Film production industries for years.

Reuniting us with family
Bertie single handedly helped reunite our pets with us during the first Covid lockdown. During a very challenging time, she committed all of her energy and truly went above and beyond the call of duty to find a way to fly our two beloved cocker spaniels, Sandy and Coco, from the UK to the USA. Not only did she arrange for them to fly on the plane but she organised the courier to pick them up and transit them through Heathrow and Miami airport. Even though the regulations and situation was changing on a daily basis, Bertie stayed on top of everything and kept us informed about what was happening. She was honest, committed and gave us the most personal and caring service. She tracked our pets as they were in transit and emailed us to ensure they had arrived safely. We are so grateful for her help during this time and would not hesitate to recommend her for any travel related need.

Reuniting Pets and Owners
Bertie is always super helpful and willing to go the extra mile to make her clients happy. She helped us ship our two adored dogs from the U.K. to the US (and back) with very little notice during the height of the Coronavirus. There were many hurdles and she was so helpful and creative. She is positive, energetic and incredibly hard working. We will use her for future travel no question about it.

Thank you
I had approached a few travel advisors to assist and Bertie was the “only” one that handled the challenge of getting me into Australia while borders are closed in such an empathic, efficient, elegant and engaging way. Thank YOU
I will never forget when you called me in the morning and the first thing you showed was empathy. You took control of the situation as I was rather numb from the news that my mother was critically unwell. You comforted and assured me by saying at 5pm I will have an itinerary for you to go back to Australia. Prior to the call you sent me an itinerary confirming my booking to Australia which was a reasonable cost and a flight two days later.
I could go on and on and on but every cloud has a silver lining….my mum survived and is now on the mend, you are now my go-to luxury travel advisor and soon to be The Peninsula London’s travel agent as a result of your empathy, amazing sense of urgency, detail, care and concern. When in crisis call Bertie!

Truly one of a kind & incredible
Bertie has been my go-to travel expert since well before the pandemic. But I rely on her expertise even more during 'covid times' to help solve my travel needs, bringing people together from around the globe. Bertie offers a bespoke and personal service, with constant reassurance amidst cancelled flights, travel bans and changes to rules and regulations. She’s gotten me out of many sticky situations in the last 12months but the one trip that will live with me forever is when I needed to get back home to Australia to nurse my father who was very ill. This was during the first lockdown. Bertie is just truly incredible at what she does. I wont go elsewhere. Thank you Bertie.

One word that comes to mind for Bertie “Genius”.
My wife and I live in London but have business interests in Brazil and USA , and throughout the pandemic Anna Roberta ( Bertie , as we know her ) has been brilliant : we travelled to Brazil in October 2020 and to USA , via Bermuda , in January 2021
Despite the airlines best efforts to keep us at home due to the pandemic, US and Brazil closed their boarders but Bertie exhausted all options to find a way for me and my family to take back my mother in-law who came to visit us in the UK before the pandemic back to Brazil and then our second trip she got us into Florida via Bermuda. If it wasn’t for Bertie we would still be stuck in UK waiting for the States to reopen Bertie is a force of nature and makes travel during a pandemic look easy. One word that comes to mind for Bertie “Genius”.

She really does go over and beyond for everyone. I have needed to book on Christmas and on her birthday nothing has fazed her including working through pandemics. She really does make sure everyone gets where they need to go and will keep an eye out for everything.

The Great Escape
Having known Bertie for close to a whole decade, booking work trips and personal vacations throughout, I could not recommend her highly enough. Her patience and professionalism, personality, transparency, honesty and always pushing for the perfect price and plan is medal worthy. I could not imagine by traveling life without her.

Flight to Oz during Covid-19
Anna is hands down the BEST travel agent you could ever have. She is someone who will sort out anything, even the near impossible. I had to fly home for an emergency to Australia during Covid-19 with barely a chance for that happening but Anna sorted it out within hours. Everyone can't believe I got a flight. Anna really helped me when I was most stressed, she was there every step of the way, even emotionally. She's someone who I will always value in my life as she really went out of her way to get me home. Not only is she the best, she's the loveliest person. Thank you Anna (Bertie).

Superb Holiday
We have worked with Bertie for just over a year and have always been happy not only with the service she provides and the excellent travel pricing she obtains for us but also her conscientious attitude; she doesn’t hesitate to help after hours or on weekends and we very much appreciate the fact she goes above and beyond to help us; she is a very important part of our supplier network .

Taking the stress out of travel!
Everything around travel that Bertie touches turns into a success. We trust her with all our corporate and personal travel needs. Bertie uses her strong personal network that she has built up over the years to give you the best of the best. She works 24/7 and I cannot think of any service provider who gives you her level of personal attention.
