Discover a wilderness of Alaskan wonders

Alaska

Experience stunning natural treasures, awe-inspiring glaciers, mountains, and fascinating wildlife - Alaska is one of the world’s most spectacular destinations that has to be seen to be believed.

Given the unique geography, a cruise is one of the most comfortable ways to experience its’ kaleidoscope of sites. There are so many cruise options, from the intimate small ship experience with expert guides that get you closer to those dramatic glaciers and icy vistas to the larger ships that take you to more ports.

There’s nowhere else quite like this wild paradise, with its bears, whales, glaciers and endless unspoilt views. See it for yourself and take a journey you will never forget.

“Alaska will blow you away with its sheer scale and beauty. From bear viewing in the summer to the Northern Lights in the winter, you’re lucky no matter when you visit. ”

Why a customer would choose me:

I'm honestly in my dream job - I get to combine my passion for travel with my love of organisation and planning. Travel has changed so much over the last few years and continues to do so, which means there are more details to consider than ever before.

It's so much fun getting to know my clients and helping them come up with the perfect itinerary. I can research to my heart's content and get into the nitty gritty to make sure your trip flows smoothly.

You just bring me your dream and we can build it together. Then leave me to focus on the details, so that you can relax and have your best adventure yet!

Meet Me:

I moved home to NZ in 2017 after living on the Sunshine Coast in Australia for ten years during my 20's (yes, I'd love to help you plan your next trip over there).

In the weekends I'm either reading a good book at home cuddled up with my rescue cats, or traipsing through the local forests - I'm not much of a city dweller if I can help it.

When it comes to travel, my attitude leans more towards 'go big or go home'. If I'm flying halfway around the world, you can bet that I'm going to make the most of it. I will bargain hunt my heart out so that I can fit in more days, more locations and more fun.

I mean, is there any better feeling in the world than standing somewhere you've never been before, experiencing new things, tasting new foods, meeting new people and just having the time of your life?

Travel has been an integral part of my life for over 20 years, and I can't imagine pursuing anything else. This year, I proudly celebrate my 17th year with House of Travel Papamoa, where I truly love being a 'hottie.' Our store boasts a fantastic team culture that makes coming to work a joyful experience every day.

I find immense satisfaction in crafting bespoke itineraries that transform my clients' dreams into reality. While the USA remains my favourite destination, my travels have also taken me through the stunning landscapes of New Zealand, the enchanting South Pacific, vibrant Australia, diverse Europe, and picturesque Canada and Alaska. This year (2024), I had the incredible opportunity to experience the magic of South Africa, where witnessing wildlife in their natural habitat is nothing short of breath-taking. Being on safari brings you so close to majestic animals, just meters away, creating unforgettable memories.

Remember, your holiday begins the moment you step through our door. I invite you to share your vision of the perfect getaway—how it looks and feels, any research you've conducted, and your essential must-haves. The more we delve into your aspirations together, the more extraordinary your holiday will be!
