Be dazzled by Vivid Sydney
Sydney
Sydney’s sparkling harbour, in all its iconic glory, is lusted-over by the world’s most avid travellers, all hankering to tick this beauty off their bucketlist. And yet for Kiwis, it’s just a three and a half hour flight from New Zealand.
The city so many yearn to visit is on our doorstep, and every year we have the opportunity to experience Sydney in her finest light.
Sydney and its iconic landmarks, including the Sydney Opera House, Sydney Harbour Bridge, and Royal Botanic Garden, will come alive from 23 May-14 Jun 2025 with mesmerising art installations, light projections, live music and culinary delights.
Seeing the Vivid Sydney lights from the Sydney Harbour on-board one of Captain Cooks Vivid Sydney cruise and dining experiences makes this the perfect on-water Vivid Sydney experience.

Why I love travel:
The places I see and the people I meet, travel really is the best way to broaden the mind. It allows you to experience and learn from all cultures and walks of life. Remember life is short, travel often.
My travel tips:
- If you are always early, you are never late.
- Prebook as much as possible before you go and schedule rest days on long trips.
- Live courageously - you miss 100% of the opportunities you don't take.
My top 3 favourite destinations:
- Italy - The food, the history, the people, the stunning coastlines, and mountains. Italy should be on everyone's bucket list.
- USA - With a multitude of cultures to experience and adventures to be had, you could spend your life just in the USA and not see everything.
- Patagonia - A challenge to reach, the landscapes that will great you make every minute of the journey worth the effort.
What's in my suitcase:
- Kindle/E-reader - it is easy to pack, light to carry, and has a long battery life; this is an essential on all my trips.
- Noise cancelling headphones - perfect for noisy flights and airports.
- Travel plug adapter - easy to forget but a must have.

Having travelled extensively I thoroughly enjoy immersing myself in the rich culture of any country I am fortunate enough to visit. Travel is my passion and I love helping clients create an unforgettable experience that is uniquely their own.
I genuinely believe that travel is the only thing you can buy that makes you richer. I enjoy being part of each and every journey. No day is the same in the life of a travel consultant and I relish the challenge that this represents. I am flattered by the number of clients who have come back to me time and time again.
Having travelled to nearly 50 countries, my bucket list is still never ending. I have backpacked my way through the world in my youth as well as enjoying five star luxury in more recent times. I have definitely felt richer from each and every experience. Travel is a way of life, I love what I do and that passion and enthusiasm always translates into the work I put into my clients plans.
