TV presenter Anita Rani regaled guests at Kuoni’s Peter Jones outlet in London this week with tales of her favourite holiday destinations, travel experiences and career in television.
Rani, who has been co-presenting the BBC’s Countryfile since 2015, joined customers and staff at the Sloane Square store on Wednesday (April 18) to share her lifelong passion for travel after becoming Kuoni’s latest brand ambassador.
Besides Countryfile, Rani has stepped up her travel presenting in recent years with specialist documentaries Russia On Four Wheels, The World’s Busiest Railway and World’s Busiest Cities.
“It’s one of the greatest privileges to travel, there’s so much more I want to see in the world,” said Rani.
“It’s the things which aren’t on camera, the people I meet and the little conversations with somebody that really gives you real insight into a place.”
Kuoni has confirmed a further events with Rani this year, which will see her visit partner stores Travelmakers, Jersey, on April 30, and Peter Goord Travel, Plymouth, on May 1.
She will also attend the Great Yorkshire Show, Southport Flower Show and Royal Highlands Show later this year as part of the partnership.
Brian Woodhouse, Kuoni retail and trade marketing manager, added: “Anita is getting more involved in travel presenting and last night was a great chance for our customers to get to know our newest brand ambassador and enjoy an evening with a view over Chelsea.”
