Alicia Sutton

House of Travel Hamilton City

As an experienced travel consultant with over 9 years in the industry, I bring a wealth of expertise and a genuine passion for exploring the world. My career has been shaped by a commitment to helping others create unforgettable journeys, fueled by my own love for adventure.

In early 2024, I achieved a lifelong dream by traveling to Antarctica—a testament to my adventurous spirit and firsthand knowledge of unique, bucket-list destinations. Whether you're seeking a serene retreat, a cultural immersion, or an epic expedition, my global insights and personalised approach ensure every journey is as inspiring as it is seamless.

Our lives are defined by experience, when we travel we open up an array of new experiences to be had. It’s a privilege to have the opportunity to assist others with their own leisure holidays or bucket list adventures.
