A meal to remember in the Daintree Rainforest

Australia

Experience food for the soul. Imagine a fully immersive rainforest candle-lit dining experience under the canopy of one of the world’s oldest surviving tropical rainforests. Lush tropical produce and unique native ingredients blended with rich Indigenous culture and storytelling. It’s truly magical. This is Flames of the Forest in the Daintree, Australia’s only rainforest dining experience tucked away in a fairy tale pocket of natural beauty.

What I love most about my job is helping others make their travel dreams a reality! It may sound cheesy, but it really is true! 

I started out back in 2002 & have enjoyed travels through South East Asia, the Pacific, Australia, USA, the UK & Europe!

After having my son just before our first Covid lockdown in 2020, I took a bit of a hiatus but came back to House of Travel in a support roll for the lovely Petra in April 2024.

Once a travel agent, always a travel agent! 

Petra and I work together to weave these dreams for our lovely customers, and I look forward to helping you with yours too!

For a long time, I've told people I have the best job in the world and I still stand by that. 

What could be better than turning peoples dreams into reality? I never know what the day will bring and isn't variety the spice of life? 

My travel journey started a bit later in my life, so I haven't been everywhere YET, but I am having a damn good crack at it, gathering local knowledge along the way.

Having spent the last 30 years in the Travel Industry I can safely say "I love my job" !!

Getting to put together dream holidays is very rewarding and it's great to see so many more Kiwis getting out to see this amazing world of ours...

I love to tailor holidays that are uniquely personal to you. Every person has different needs, wants and "must do's" for their holiday. Nothing is cookie cutter in the world of travel so being able to put together an itinerary that is bespoke and personal is rewarding for myself and for you, the traveller.

My favourite destinations would be Europe (especially France and Italy), South East Asia (especially Vietnam and Thailand) and of course our Island neighbours. I have been to Fiji numerous times and every time I just love it.
But there are so many places I have yet to travel to and I look forward to sharing my travel stories along the way.

I look forward to working with you..
