Flight time.
The flight from Auckland to Canada varies depending on the city you're flying into, but you can fly non-stop in just about 13 hours.
Canada is so much more than maple syrup and mountains, it’s a vibrant tapestry of captivating cities, jaw-dropping scenery, and cultures as diverse as the landscapes themselves. From the French charm of Québec to the Celtic warmth of Nova Scotia, every province feels like stepping into a whole new world.
Imagine yourself exploring glittering glaciers, strolling through lush coastal forests, or soaking up the buzz of cosmopolitan Vancouver and Toronto. Picture spotting majestic wildlife, enjoying warm hospitality in charming towns, or breathing in crisp alpine air beside turquoise lakes.

The flight from Auckland to Canada varies depending on the city you're flying into, but you can fly non-stop in just about 13 hours.
Summer (June to August) offers the warmest weather and is ideal for exploring the national parks, lakes, and cities. September to October is perfect for witnessing the stunning autumn colours, especially in regions like Ontario and Quebec.
Canada spans multiple time zones. For example, Vancouver (Pacific Time) is 19 hours behind New Zealand Standard Time (NZST, GMT +12), while Toronto (Eastern Time) is 16 hours behind. This significant time difference will require some adjustment, especially after a long flight.

MariaTravel really is my passion and I perhaps love organising it just as much as the actual travelling. Being able to open up options for people they had no idea they could accomplish is truly exciting. I love the scope of what we can accomplish as a travel agent; our systems, knowledge and relationships with the right people all add up to being able to organise a truly memorable trip. I’ve done it all from tours, safaris, ocean and river cruises, adventure travel, self-drives, rail journeys, family travel specialising in all things Disney and I love to share my knowledge to help you achieve the trip of your lifetime.
Outside of the office I like to spend my time skiing, horse riding, tramping, scuba diving, getting outside on our lifestyle block with my two little girls or enjoying a glass of pinot with a side order of chocolate mousse.

Why I love travel?
Travel gives us our greatest stories, our most cherished memories and countless irreplaceable learnings that we can choose to pay forward to others. It teaches us about ourselves and each other, it broadens our horizons and, just like a reset button, it forces us to refocus on what really matters.

I am passionate about sustainable travel for the future.
My entire career of 30 years has been in travel sales and tourism. I have travelled overseas more than a hundred times to over 70 countries and 6 continents for personal holidays, business and leisure.
I've made my home in London, Dorset, Chamonix and Auckland. I settled back in my home town of Christchurch after being away for five years.
I love travel and how it enriches lives and provides a livelihood for people and communities around the globe. I love helping to inspire and inform clients, who care about the impact their choices have on local communities and the environment, and who want to have a great holiday.
Sustainable doesn't mean you can't have luxury! My personal holidays always have a sense of adventure, you will find me on a beach or mountain or taking in a cultural experience to make the most of a destination.
I personally rate train travel one of the best ways to casually explore, there's nothing I love more than checking in at a downtown railway station off to a new destination. I think travel provides new perspectives and respect for different cultures and values are par for the course. We can always find common ground when we are prepared to go out of our comfort zone.
Why book your travel with me? I am a CLIA certified Cruise Master and dedicated to helping you with your travel plans. I have the tools and the networks available to assist with all styles of travel experiences you may be looking for.
