Our favourite Active Holiday experiences

Discover a different Australia

If you like your holidays with a bit of heart-pumping adventure, Australia delivers in spades. Cycle through world-class wine regions, coastlines and countryside on a guided bike tour, where every trail comes with views (and often, vineyard stops).

Lace up your boots for the Great Walks of Australia – from the rugged wilderness of Tasmania’s Bay of Fires to the dramatic coastline of the 12 Apostles. These guided multi-day hikes combine nature, comfort, and cultural connection in equal measure.

Pack the clubs and tee off on one of the Great Golf Courses of Australia, playing championship greens set against dramatic coastal cliffs, desert backdrops or rolling fairways.

Whether you’re chasing challenge or just looking to move a little more while you explore, Australia’s wide-open spaces and legendary landscapes are ready when you are.

Having a love of travel, I completed a Bachelor of International Tourism Management in 2013.

After a 6 month stint working at Walt Disney World in Florida I returned to NZ and started my career in the travel industry.

After three years I was feeling the itch to travel again so I decided to embark on my second OE and moved to the UK. Living and working there allowed me to travel Europe extensively and my favourite country to date would be Poland. I returned to NZ in 2020.

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.

Having spent the last 30 years in the Travel Industry I can safely say "I love my job" !!

Getting to put together dream holidays is very rewarding and it's great to see so many more Kiwis getting out to see this amazing world of ours...

I love to tailor holidays that are uniquely personal to you. Every person has different needs, wants and "must do's" for their holiday. Nothing is cookie cutter in the world of travel so being able to put together an itinerary that is bespoke and personal is rewarding for myself and for you, the traveller.

My favourite destinations would be Europe (especially France and Italy), South East Asia (especially Vietnam and Thailand) and of course our Island neighbours. I have been to Fiji numerous times and every time I just love it.
But there are so many places I have yet to travel to and I look forward to sharing my travel stories along the way.

I look forward to working with you..

I really do have a passion for travel especially visiting new destinations. 

I very rarely spend my holidays at home. I'm usually on a plane with husband Mike - suitcases over packed as usual. 

We enjoy being active on holiday - walking 800 kms across Spain on the Camino, biking through Latvia and Estonia. 

I equally enjoy a good beach holiday such as Santorini, Fiji and Queensland. 

We also manage to fit in visiting children and grandchildren in London, Hong Kong and Sydney.
