Sunrise, sunset & starlight on the Great Barrier Reef

Australia

Underwater View Of Kids Snorkelling

The Great Barrier Reef (one of the 7 wonders of the Natural World) needs no introduction. A World Heritage playground just waiting to be explored - experience it above and below the water. Charter a luxury yacht with expert crew, sail your own catamaran or enjoy an all inclusive cruise.

Jump on board a scenic helicopter flight or for something quite incredible, dive beneath the surface or sleep under the sea. Spend a magical night aboard Reefsuite and have a front row seat to the dazzling underwater world, trust us this could be the most memorable night’s sleep you ever have.

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!

When I first started in the travel industry, I didn’t even have a passport! Fast forward a few months, and that had all changed – I hit the ground running on my first overseas adventure, and I haven’t stopped since. Whether it’s getting immersed in the local culture, or ticking off bucket list moments, travel has a unique magic that stays with you forever. 

I love using my own travel experience to bring that personal, unique touch to your dream holiday, making a seamless experience from the planning stages right through to your return home. From navigating the bustling metropolis of Hong Kong to exploring the USA on a road trip, there’s a world out there just waiting to be discovered. 

Let’s have a chat, and make your travel dreams a reality!

Travel -it broadens our views, creates lasting memories and allows you to take a break from the ordinary.

In recent years, I have taken to much more adventurous travel, heading to Central Asia and exploring Uzbekistan and Kyrgyzstan, exploring much of Vietnam, Sri Lanka and Shanghai and looking forward to our next adventures in Africa.

I love travelling with my family and seeing my teenage girls minds blown by the experiences they have in different countries - different ways of living, different foods, different cultures, amazing sites (and sights!) and really seeing what is important to other people outside of NZ.

I love hearing about the epic adventures people have planned and love helping pull things together to give you your Best Holiday Ever. Give me a call or send me an email to get started on your next journey.
