Flight time
The flight from Auckland to Hong Kong takes roughly 11 hours nonstop but no matter what time you arrive, this country is always ready with good food and great times.
In Hong Kong, it feels like any combination of anything is possible – modern skylines tower over ancient temples, Michelin-starred restaurants sit beside steaming street food stalls, and every street and alley hums with life.
Take the tram up to Victoria Peak for panoramic views of one of the world’s most glittering harbours, ride a traditional junk boat at sunset, or hop on the Star Ferry and see the city the local way – from the water.
You’ll never go hungry here. From teahouse dim sum to roast goose, pineapple buns and silky milk tea, the flavours of Hong Kong are everywhere and impossible to resist.
And despite the city’s reputation for neon lights and skyscrapers, there’s calm too – hike lush trails, discover hidden beaches, or soak up the serenity of mountaintop temples just beyond the urban rush.
Whether you’re shopping in vibrant night markets, exploring Kowloon’s buzzing art scene or sipping rooftop cocktails under the stars, Hong Kong will keep you coming back for more.

The flight from Auckland to Hong Kong takes roughly 11 hours nonstop but no matter what time you arrive, this country is always ready with good food and great times.
For sightseeing and exploring Hong Kong’s neighbourhoods and islands, the best time to visit is autumn (late September to early November). Spring (March to early May) is also pleasant, despite the intermittent downpours.
Hong Kong is between 4 and 5 hours behind New Zealand, depending on Daylight Saving here, so it might take you a couple of days to get used to it.
Nice to meet you! I love traveling with my husband, whether it's hiking the Camino de Santiago, biking through Latvia, or relaxing on beach holidays in places like Greece and Fiji. Recent highlights include cruising Norway and exploring Puglia, Italy—though I’m always guilty of overpacking!

I liken planning a holiday to baking a cake. It takes several well measured and thought out ingredients for a great result.
I have been lucky to have travelled extensively myself and being a travel consultant for more than 20 years, I use these 'ingredients' - experience and expertise - to draw on to help create amazing holidays and lifelong memories.
It is such a pleasure to help my clients get the best out of their holidays and manage an incredible team of travel professionals.

Unmatched in her lifetime experience within the conference and incentive travel industry, Victoria heads-up HOT Events and truly delights in delivering fantastic results for our clients.
Making magic happen is Victoria's specialty. She understands what is required to deliver top experiences for delegates and incentive visitors. In high demand by both clients and colleagues alike, Victoria is keen to share her skills and works closely with the team to ensure every part of a programme, from concept delivery, is exceptional .
Although Victoria's hospitality management studies included chief training - it doesn't mean she does a lot of it now - preferring to hunt out the latest wining and dining options in town. She does bring this knowledge to the table when hosting groups on or off shore - ensuring the venue is the ideal place for the specific group's requirements.
"The best part of my job is year after year, hosting many of the same clients - I am challenged to make their experience better than the year before, and I love it!"

Travel has been a constant in my life since my OE started with a classic Contiki trip through Europe, followed by working in London and traveling through the UK, Turkey, Egypt, and Israel. I also spent a year working in Iceland—a now trendy travel hotspot—before returning to New Zealand.
In 2000, my family moved to the middle east living in both Saudi Arabia and Bahrain, which provided an exciting base for exploring nearby destinations. We had unforgettable holidays in Austria, France, the UK, Cyprus, Egypt, Jordan, Turkey, Sri Lanka, and Kenya.
Returning to New Zealand marked a new chapter of travel, this time without children. Recent adventures have included Vietnam, India, China, Peru, and Cambodia.
My travel career started with Singapore Airlines and since 2019 I’ve been consulting at House of Travel in Howick. I love talking and connecting with clients, listening to their travel dreams and turning them into memorable experiences.
Whether you're looking for an island getaway, relaxing cruise or an exciting adventure, I’m here to help you plan the perfect trip.
Travel is an adventure that brings the world to life.
