Food, glorious food … in Vietnam
Asia, Vietnam
Vietnam is a spellbinding mix of culture, colour and cuisine and it is one of the fastest growing Asian destinations for Kiwi travellers at the moment. So why is Vietnam so hot right now?
It’s not just how far your dollar goes on the ground - you don’t need a lot of dong to dine like a deity in Vietnam, you can pick up a steaming hot bowl of delicious Pho streetside from our favourite restaurant in Hanoi’s French Quarter and still get change from $5!
You’ll love the glow and bustle exploring historic Hoi An’s Bach Dang Street night markets illuminated by lanterns and candles and a cacophony of sights, smells and surprises! Quality still only costs cents, but the views looking back across the township are priceless!
Don’t miss the now insta-famous moments like the bone rattling adrenaline rush of sipping your Vietnamese coffee in Train Street at our favourite cafe as the train literally chugs beside you.
Expand your culinary repertoire with your market fresh produce at some of the exceptional cooking classes… and then, of course, there are the wellness retreats, the beaches, the history and culture. There are just too many amazing and authentic experiences to mention!

Having visited 32 countries
(and counting!), I’ve been lucky enough to turn my passion of exploring the
world into a career helping others do the same. I specialise in travel across
Australia, the Pacific Islands, Cruises, and bring a wealth of knowledge from a
six-month backpacking adventure across Europe that gave me first hand insight
into travelling on and off the beaten track.
Whether you’re planning a family holiday, a romantic getaway, or a once in a
lifetime adventure, I’ll take care of every detail so that you can relax and
enjoy the journey. Your travel will be made easy, memorable, and be perfectly
suited to you.
Some of my most memorable experiences include hot air ballooning over the
desert in Dubai, island hopping along Croatia’s stunning coastline, and
something a little closer to home - Fiji! - A destination every Kiwi should
experience at least once.
Travel is constantly evolving, and I’m here to guide you every step of the way
— from planning and booking to those special insider tips. Get in touch via
phone or email to start planning your next adventure. Video consultations are
also available for your convenience.

Lovely to meet you! My love for travel began early—at 19, I
left New Zealand with a one-way ticket to London to start my OE, and I’ve never
looked back. I spent eight years living overseas, including four incredible
years in London, where I explored Europe extensively. (Barcelona still has my
heart!)
I began my travel career in Melbourne in 2004, and I knew I’d found my dream job. Even now, I still smile every day coming to work—I truly LOVE what I do.
Helping clients plan their adventures brings me so much joy.
I specialise in point-to-point Europe itineraries, and I’m especially
passionate about tours and cruising. Whether it’s your first trip or your
tenth, I’m here to make your journey smooth, exciting, and unforgettable from
start to finish.
I’m known for being friendly, bubbly, and a great listener. I’ll take the time to understand your needs and offer thoughtful advice and suggestions to make your trip the best it can be.
Now based on a dairy farm in Reporoa with my husband and our three young children, I understand the #mumlife juggle—and the importance of taking time out for a well-earned holiday! Having travelled to over 40 countries, I can’t wait to share my experience with you.
