Flight time
The flight from Auckland to China takes roughly 12 hours nonstop. It's not a short flight but worth it to see things you've only ever dreamed of.
China is a country where living history meets the future. From the fast-paced buzz of cities like Beijing and Shanghai to tranquil mountain ranges and misty rice terraces, there’s something here for everyone – and then some.
Step back in time at the Forbidden City, marvel at the ancient Buddhist art of the Mogao Grottoes, or hike the dramatic Tiger Leaping Gorge. You’ll quickly realise: one visit is never enough.
Of course, there are the icons – the Great Wall, the 1,200-year-old Buddha at Le Shan – but if nature is calling, head to Guilin’s karst peaks or Longji’s sweeping rice terraces for views that take your breath away. And don’t miss the panda breeding centres in Chengdu – cuteness levels are off the charts.
For food lovers, this is paradise. From street snacks to steaming bowls of noodles, there’s something delicious (and surprisingly affordable) every few metres.
A trip to China is a feast for the senses – a fascinating blend of ancient tradition, bold modernity and unforgettable flavour.

The flight from Auckland to China takes roughly 12 hours nonstop. It's not a short flight but worth it to see things you've only ever dreamed of.
The best times to visit China are spring (March to May) and autumn (September and October) for mild weather and smaller crowds. Summer offers vibrant festivals while winter brings ice festivals and skiing.
China is 4–5 hours behind New Zealand depending on Daylight Saving in NZ. It will take a couple of days to adjust

Bula, Bonjour, Talofa, Konnichiwa – and welcome!
From the moment I could dream, I dreamed of travel. At just 17, I set out on
that path by diving into my first travel course, and I’ve never looked back.
For the first decade, I poured my heart into everything South Pacific – those
sparkling waters, warm smiles, and sun-soaked cultures became my world.
Now, my map has expanded far beyond the Pacific, and I’m proud to say I sell
the entire world. And what a breathtakingly vast world it is! Over the past 30
years, I’ve been incredibly fortunate to explore some of its most magical
corners – Samoa, Bali, Vietnam, Hawaii, Italy, and Switzerland are just a few
of the places that have left footprints on my soul.
But this journey isn't just about me. It’s about you – your dreams, your adventures, your once-in-a-lifetime moments. I’m here to ignite your excitement, guide your decisions, and help piece together your perfect travel jigsaw. Whether you’re hopping over to Australia, meandering through the Scottish Highlands in a small group, or gliding past alpine peaks on a Swiss rail tour – I’ll be right beside you, making it all seamless.
There’s nothing quite like nabbing that dream tour, then weaving in the best
flights, stopovers, and secret gems to create an itinerary that’s more than a
trip – it’s an experience. Over the years, I’ve learned something simple but
powerful: every place is unique, kindness connects us all, and life’s most
precious souvenirs are the memories we make.
So let’s start building yours.

As a 17 year old, I headed off to Finland on a student exchange for a year, my first ever overseas trip and the start of my passion for travel.

through Vietnam or a guided coach tour of Europe, I love working with you
to create the perfect holiday.
Having been in the industry for over 30 years, I have an extensive knowledge of airfares, and travel providers, I combine that with the knowledge of my returning customers and the wisdom of the House of Travel collective to craft your travel.
There sure is a lot you need to know and I pride myself on keeping up to date with industry trends and changes. That may be new destinations to visit, beautiful places to stay or changes in travel requirements.
So get in touch and let me help make your travel dreams come true.

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..
