Flight time.
Flying from Auckland to Italy usually takes around 24 hours, including a stopover. The journey is long, but the art, culture, and cuisine of Italy await you.
Ciao! Passion seeps into all aspects of life here – you can hear it in the opera, taste it in lovingly prepared pasta, and see it in action as the Italians promenade across their piazzas, talking loudly and proudly with their hands. In Rome and Milan, life zooms by on Vespas, while Venice and Florence dazzle with their unique charms. In the countryside, things slow down - ideal for savoring wine, long lunches, and sunflower fields. Enjoy Tuscany’s scenic hills, historic Pompeii, and pastel coastal villages. On the coast, villages washed in pastel colours cling to cliffs; and in the Italian Alps, elegant villas overlook tranquil lakes. No wonder Italy was home to so many inspired painters and composers.

Having been in the travel industry for 14 years, it's safe to say travel
is my biggest passion. I love turning up somewhere not knowing what to expect
and being delighted by both the differences in culture, cuisine and customs.
Part way through my career I took a year off and spent this travelling
extensively through central America, Asia and Europe. I'm now fortunate enough
to be able to pass on the knowledge I've gained over the years and work with my
clients to bring their travel dreams to fruition.

With a tapestry of travel
experiences across Europe and beyond, I bring knowledge and passion to my role
as a Travel Consultant.
Ocean cruising and river cruising provides travellers with the opportunity to
explore the world.
Solo traveller or group ? Whether you are a solo traveller, looking to connect with others, or friends and family wanting to explore together, group travel offers a unique and rewarding way to see the world.
Travel philosophy: I believe that travel is not just about visiting new places, but about
immersing oneself in the local culture and cuisine to truly understand and
appreciate the essence of a destination.
I am dedicated to providing exceptional service and creating memorable travel
experiences for my clients.

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.

Having been with House of Travel for 13 years I really enjoy how even after all this time every day is different. I can still find new destinations to learn about and expand on my knowledge through travel I have booked. Hearing about how my client’s travels went and what they experienced is always a highlight!
I encourage clients to keep in touch throughout their trip as I love receiving a photo now and then to see where their adventures are taking them. To me it's not just a holiday or a travel experience we are booking, it's memories we are helping create that will last you a lifetime.
“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So, throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbour. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” – Mark Twain.

Flying from Auckland to Italy usually takes around 24 hours, including a stopover. The journey is long, but the art, culture, and cuisine of Italy await you.
The best times to visit Italy are during the spring (April to June) and autumn (September to October). These seasons offer mild weather, fewer tourists, and the chance to see Italy at its most beautiful.
Italy is 10 hours behind New Zealand, so you’ll experience a substantial time difference upon arrival.
"Service"
Craig"Theresa is very knowledgeable about the places we want to go, and she is a delightful person to interact with."
John & Julie"Trudi was very prompt in getting back to us when we emailed her with our enquiry about a trip to Aitutaki. She sent us our itinerary with a quote within a day and all email correspondence was clear and concise. She has the knowledge to answer any questions we had and all replies to our emails were very prompt. There is absolutely doubt we will use Trudi to arrange future travel."
