Hello, I'm Megan Loughridge, and I've recently rejoined the Travel Industry with a renewed passion. As someone who adores planning my own adventures almost as much as experiencing them firsthand, I understand the importance of every detail in creating unforgettable journeys. Drawing from my personal enthusiasm and extensive knowledge across various travel destinations and styles, I'm dedicated to infusing your trips with the same excitement and extensive planning that I bring to my own travels.

I am so excited to be back working and a part of the House of Travel family after some time away from the industry whilst my children were young. 

Being a friendly and bubbly person I appreciate spending time with my clients building their dream holidays, listening and paying attention to their needs to create special memories. 

I feel so lucky to be a part of this wonderful travel industry and find that my passion to help others shows when working in my happy place.

I have travelled through Europe, Vietnam and Cambodia as well as parts of Eastern Canada.  I have cruised Alaska which I absolutely loved and have had many trips to different parts of Australia, Asia and South Africa. 

My favourite country would have to be Cambodia, where I thoroughly enjoyed meeting the locals, travelling this beautiful country, and experiencing the local food. Waking up at 5am to have a cup of tea whilst watching the sun rising over Angkor Wat as the local monks walked past.  It was such a magical moment and one that will be engraved in my mind forever. 

I can’t wait to meet with you to discuss your individual travel enquiries.

I have had a lifelong love affair for exploring the world. Raised in a family that prioritised travel, I inherited a passion for all things travel. I have lived in different countries (London, USA, Argentina) and I am fascinated with the rich tapestry of culture, people, religion and food in new places. 

My love for travel has taken me to some of the world’s most amazing places!

From Mauritius to Bahamas and all in between, I have been privileged to experience the world and being able to speak and understand 5 languages English, Afrikaans, Dutch, German and Greek) certainly comes in helpful.

I have grown up in South Africa, spending most of my adult life there, being able to show my clients what makes this region so unique is a privilege. Africa was my backyard after all and even after living in NZ for almost 12 years, my heart still beats to the African Drum.

For me, choosing a favourite destination is impossible. But .. Bali has literally captivated my heart, and even though I have been there 20+ times, I still always find new things to uncover. As does the Maldives, Mauritius and Seychelles, these islands just have the “it” factor

I also love ocean cruising, especially Mediterranean and the Caribbean. Cruising offers such a great variety and a chance to see multiple destinations and experiencing iconic landmarks and locations from your hotel on the sea. 

I WOULD SAY MY PASSION IS MAKING MY CLIENTS DREAM HOLIDAYS COME TRUE AND I PRIDE MYSELF ON MY EFFICIENT SERVICE AT ALL TIMES.

Having worked in the Travel Industry for 9 years and counting, I am incredibly passionate about detail and no trip is too small!

I have lived in London & Perth, both opening destinations for me to explore! My favourite trips to date were Greece and Thailand. 

Every part of the process excites me, from simple flights, group holidays, to your bucket list trips! 

I enjoy getting to know my clients and I understand that no detail is too small and warm prompt service is key to delivering great customer experiences.
