Our team in Brighton

At Travel Nation, we create unforgettable trips for our customers. We offer first-hand destination advice, plenty of can-do suggestions, and a seamless booking process. We aim to make every journey feel like a trip of a lifetime.

Based in the heart of the Lanes in central Brighton, we’re a 10 minute walk from the train station and 2 minutes walk from the sea. Brighton is a magnetic destination with a flourishing arts scene plus plenty of live music and events. 

Brighton is well-known for its food scene, from Abyssinian to Argentinean with all things vegetarian and vegan. We're also very close to several gyms, the famous Brighton beach, and we have more independent coffee houses than you could visit in a month.
