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..

I have travelled to over 40 countries and I am always plotting what's next - however, the more places I experience, the longer the longer the list gets! I love the anticipation of a new adventure and learning as much as I can from every new journey. I am a self-described travel enthusiast, so being able to talk travel every day and share my passion for travel is a dream come true. I love helping people realize their travel dreams and being able to live vicariously through experiences. 

Getting to know my clients and learning what's important to them is something I really enjoy, and helps when creating an itinerary that's is as unique and as special as the traveler.

There is nothing more satisfying to me than a client popping in after their journey with tales to tell of the adventures they've had. I love hearing peoples stories and experiences as every experience is so different - there is no universal truth or one size fits all option when it comes to travel!

For me travel is inspiring and transformative - it allows you to learn more about the world around you, and in the process, more about yourself.

Thailand FAQs

What is the best time to visit Thailand?
Phuket is November to March - pleasant weather with lower humidity, ideal for exploring beaches, cities, and cultural sites. But if you want to get better value for money, then travel between May – October.  
However, if it’s Koh Samui you’re interested in, you can travel year around, but a Top Tip -if you aren’t a fan of the crowds avoid October- November as it’s the raining season and try to avoid local holidays like Songkran (water festival) where there is a lot of local / domestic travel.

When you should go really depends on your preference and plans. The cooler season is the most popular, the hot season is the hottest and most festive, and the rainy season is the wettest and therefore tends to be the least crowded. Talk to one of our consultants and we can create you a trip that is perfect for what you need

Thailand is a country with a rich and diverse culture, and it is important to respect its traditions and customs. Some of the dos and don'ts are: 
- do greet people with a wai (a slight bow with palms pressed together), 
- do dress modestly and cover your shoulders and knees when visiting temples, 
- do remove your shoes before entering a house or a temple, 
- don't touch a child’s head.   

What are some family-friendly activities in Thailand?
Depending on where you are heading there is a huge variety of activities to keep everyone entertained.  Visit the water parks, kayaking in the ocean or hire a long tail boat to a private island.  Or for something special, we recommend the Elephant Hills rainforest camp in Khao Sok National Park. Stay in luxury tented accommodation and enjoy activities like jungle treks, canoeing, and ethical elephant encounters.
