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.

Travel has always ignited a deep passion within me. I’ve been
incredibly fortunate to wander across distant lands and hidden gems, and my
longing to explore continues to grow with every trip. After my time working in
Florida, I've returned to the U.S. multiple times, and Philadelphia holds a
special place in my heart—alive with history, bursting with vibrant culture,
and so wonderfully easy to discover.
My journeys have taken me to London, Egypt, Jordan, and more
recently, I’ve embraced the joy of exploring closer to home. I’ve been
captivated by the awe-inspiring landscapes of Uluru and the Red Centre and
mesmerized by the beauty of Heron Island in the southern reaches of the Great
Barrier Reef. I’ve also fallen in love with the energetic pulse of Sydney and
the breathtaking northwestern wonders of Tasmania—visiting Launceston, Cradle
Mountain (even in summer, don’t forget your coat—the cold can surprise you),
and Strahan.
As the dedicated Australia and Pacific specialist at our office,
these adventures have not only broadened my horizons but have fuelled my
passion to share these incredible experiences with others. I eagerly look
forward to discovering more extraordinary destinations, immersing myself in
diverse cultures, and creating unforgettable memories—wholeheartedly sharing
that joy and passion with everyone I meet!

As the proud Owner Operator of House of Travel Nelson, I lead a small but passionate team dedicated to taking care of all your travel needs.
I primarily work on the Orbit World Travel side of our business, specialising in business and group travel. But as a traveller myself, I love chatting with customers and the team about their upcoming adventures — there’s nothing better than sharing in the excitement of a great trip!
Travel has played a huge role in my life. From years of family holidays to the Gold Coast and Fiji, where the kids spent hours in the pool or on the playground, to unforgettable highlights like Disneyland (they were 10 and 12 — the perfect age!), followed by a relaxing week in Mexico. These days, with older kids, we’re seeking more adventure. Our recent trip to Vietnam was a standout — from the vibrant energy of Ho Chi Minh City to the peaceful beauty of Hoi An's lanterns and Halong Bay. If you haven’t been, it’s a must!
Next on my list? Europe. While I’ve done a couple of quick trips
in the past, I’m keen to take the time to explore the diverse cultures and rich
history of the places I’ve spent years helping others discover.
Whether your trip is big or small, come in and see us at House of Travel Nelson — we’ll make sure it’s your best one yet.
