Variety, vibrancy, volcanoes − these words aptly describe Vanuatu. This necklace of lush islands in the South Pacific offers travellers a captivating and divergent choice of experiences - from fine dining to adventure tourism. Vanuatu’s rich volcanic soil and climate have helped give the country’s Santo beef, and the coffee grown on the island of Tanna a worldwide reputation for quality. Where better to sample these culinary delights than in a French restaurant in the cosmopolitan capital, Port Vila. Or join in one of the Melanesian feasts organised by the major resorts.

The best time to visit Vanuatu is from May to October, offering cooler and drier weather perfect for outdoor adventures. For cultural enthusiasts, April to June is ideal to witness the Naghol land diving. The wet season from November to April brings lush landscapes but also higher humidity and cyclone risks.

"we put in a deposit for a trip to Vanuatu but Vanessa returned to us that, that price was no longer available and would cost more, we then changed the trip to Fiji at Beachcomber but had nt decided on where to stay for one night at front end of trip and 4 nights at end of trip, it was a bit of a muck around on my end but she helped us through and we got sorted after an hour or so"

I have already been fortunate enough to do a bit of travelling myself and look forward to seeing more of what the world has to offer in the future!
I love researching and planning a memorable holiday for clients, there is so much to learn about each and every destination. I find that sharing travel stories is a great way to connect with others!
Having worked in the

help plan travel adventures both for my clients and of course myself.
Hearing the anecdotes and stories on your return home continues to feed
my wanderlust passion. I love the challenge of a tricky flight itinerary, and
travel destinations of the beaten track. My passion for exploration and

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.
