Bula! Kia Orana! Talofa! Aloha!
For many the Pacific Islands are simply a bucket list dream that live on screensavers, to be visited “one day”. To us they’re an easy three hour plane ride away.
We are so lucky to live on the doorstep of an amazing range of incredible tropical islands.
Fiji, Samoa, Rarotonga, Niue or a little touch of France in the tropics – Tahiti.
Whatever you choose, you’re guaranteed world-class snorkelling, white sand beaches and dazzling turquoise waters. Add endless blue sky days lazing in a hammock, and nights filled with exotic cocktails and unforgettable sunsets - all within in few hours flight and all at a price that’s right for you. We really do have paradise on our doorstep.

"Booking very easy."
Neville"Nicky was very professional & knowledgeable of the tourist industry & my requirements"
Nerilee"We walked into the shop, couldn't see anyone, then a friendly HELLO from the far end. We travelled down to meet Kelda for some ideas and options. We had renewed our 15 year expired passports. Before we knew it, we were booked for Niue. Done. Kelda had another appointment booked. We didn't know until we left. There was no rush or stress. Walked out the door for usual coffee - what had we done? It was so easy. Thank you Kelda"

Why a customer would choose me:
I'm honestly in my dream job - I get to combine my passion for travel with my love of organisation and planning. Travel has changed so much over the last few years and continues to do so, which means there are more details to consider than ever before.
It's so much fun getting to know my clients and helping them come up with the perfect itinerary. I can research to my heart's content and get into the nitty gritty to make sure your trip flows smoothly.
You just bring me your dream and we can build it together. Then leave me to focus on the details, so that you can relax and have your best adventure yet!
Meet Me:
I moved home to NZ in 2017 after living on the Sunshine Coast in Australia for ten years during my 20's (yes, I'd love to help you plan your next trip over there).
In the weekends I'm either reading a good book at home cuddled up with my rescue cats, or traipsing through the local forests - I'm not much of a city dweller if I can help it.
When it comes to travel, my attitude leans more towards 'go big or go home'. If I'm flying halfway around the world, you can bet that I'm going to make the most of it. I will bargain hunt my heart out so that I can fit in more days, more locations and more fun.
I mean, is there any better feeling in the world than standing somewhere you've never been before, experiencing new things, tasting new foods, meeting new people and just having the time of your life?

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.
