Discover a Different Australia

Discover a Different Australia

Whether it’s a long lunch beneath gum trees in a hidden vineyard, a self-drive journey along dramatic coastal roads, or a guided walk-through ancient gorges as the sun rises over the outback — Australia rewards travellers who seek more than just a holiday.

Ride in comfort through the vast interior on an iconic rail journey. Drift through time in a hot air balloon over the Barossa. Sample world-class produce at its source or unwind in beautifully appointed stays that connect you to place. These aren’t just holidays — they’re the travel stories that you’ll share for years to come.

Our Australia specialists don’t just organise travel — they craft premium journeys designed for those who value depth, authenticity, and ease.

House of Travel Whanganui

Hey there!

I’m Laura, the smiley face you’ll spot as soon as you walk through our office door. With a serious case of wanderlust, I’ve done it all —lived abroad, cruised the seas, island-hopped, and even cruised around South Africa on the back of a motorbike. But let me tell you about my ultimate love affair Africa!

For three incredible years, I bounced between Australia and South Africa, exploring every corner of the country, often on the back of a motorbike. I’ve sat with elephants for hours, watched big cats hunting, and slept under the stars in the middle of a game reserve. My heart belongs to the wild, and if you’re an animal lover like me, trust me, Africa will capture yours too.

Nothing lights me up more than helping people experience this magic. The more I learn, the more excited I get about sharing these adventures with you! Whether it’s a dream safari, a relaxing cruise, or an off-the-beaten-path escape, I’m here to bring your travel dreams to life.

Let’s make your adventure happen!

House of Travel Rotorua

After achieving my New Zealand Level 5 & 6 Diplomas in Travel and Tourism, I’m excited to have joined the team at House of Travel Rotorua back in December 2022 - not even Covid could derail my dreams of becoming a travel consultant.  

My years of studying and my personal experience of travelling to Australia on family holidays has fuelled my passion for creating unforgettable holidays. I spend my days designing holidays within New Zealand, Australia, the South Pacific and Asia, and I absolutely love arranging cruise holidays. Working with you to create your perfect getaway is what I enjoy the most, so bring me your dream holiday, and we can build it together! Leave me to focus on the details, so that you can relax and have your best adventure yet!
