North America

So much to see. So much to do!

Howdy!

North America is home to it all. Step beyond the typical tourist route and carve your own trail as you set out on a unique adventure. For the holiday seeker who likes to vacation in nothing but nature, there are the dramatic terrains of a Canadian landscape. For those who want to simply relax, the beaches of Hawaii are waiting for you. Or seek out the hustle and bustle of the big cities such as Los Angeles, San Francisco, Chicago, Las Vegas or New York City.

The diversity is profound here - every state feels like a different nation, with new experiences, attractions and people watching to go with it!

Our favourite North America destinations

USA

The world would be a pretty boring place without the USA. From the land that makes movies and movie stars, you can waltz down LA streets paved with their names; sit in Memphis homes once graced by legends.

Canada

Staggeringly large and home to some distinctly diverse regions, Canada is a rich tapestry of contrasting cities and landscapes.

Hawai'i

Aloha. It’s a greeting you’ll hear a hundred times a day in Hawai'i, and one which you’ll find yourself slipping into your own language. With its Polynesian heritage, it’s easy to imagine that New Zealand would be like this if it were miles closer to the equator.

"We had a good and positive experience with Fiona. She understood exactly what we were looking for in our trip, made a few suggestions and provided us with quotes the next day. Once we had chosen, the travel was booked and confirmed within a day. Great service, thanks :-)"

House of Travel Hamilton City

With over 40 years of travel experience, including 30 years living and working in the USA, I’ve developed a deep passion for showcasing the beauty and diversity of the United States. But my love of travel goes far beyond that. Travel is not just a career for me—it's a lifelong journey that has shaped my understanding of the world and its many cultures.

I thrive on helping my clients discover unique, off-the-beaten-path destinations, and I have a special fondness for authentic, remote locations that offer a genuine connection to the culture and landscape. My adventures have taken me to the vast sands of Morocco and Egypt, where I’ve explored ancient ruins and vibrant markets. I’ve trekked the Inca Trail in Peru and hiked to Everest Base Camp in Nepal, experiencing firsthand the stunning landscapes and welcoming communities. Cuba’s lively streets and rich history also hold a special place in my heart.

Whether it’s trekking through the mountains of Nepal or uncovering hidden gems in Peru, I love guiding travellers to places that offer more than just sightseeing—they offer a chance to truly connect with the world. I find great joy in helping my clients turn their dream holidays into reality, whether they’re after iconic landmarks or remote locations that are rich in culture and adventure.

Through my work as a travel agent, I create experiences that go beyond the ordinary, helping travellers discover not only new places but new perspectives. Let me help you craft a journey that will stay with you long after you’ve returned home.
