City vibes and sunny escapes
From Melbourne’s eclectic laneways buzzing with street art and hidden cafes to Sydney’s sun-soaked beaches, you’ll find so many amazing experiences on offer in every city.
Head to a rooftop bar in Brisbane, or get a taste of the country’s multi-cultural influences at Adelaide’s Central Market. If nature and wildlife is more your style, take a stroll through Kings Park in Perth. Queensland has a piece of paradise to suit everyone – it is truly like no other place on earth. From seemingly endless coastlines to the great expanses of the outback, the world famous Great Barrier Reef and an array of luscious rainforests.
Travel to the tropical north for wonders of the world and natural serenity, or head south to the state’s capital hub where you can embrace city life and surf on the Sunshine Coast and Gold Coast – definitely the makings of the perfect sunshine holiday.
And don’t forget to discover the four states that are filled with diverse and iconic Australian experiences that are renowned the world over: South Australia, Western Australia, Tasmania and the Northern Territory. Whether you’ve got two weeks to see the sights or six months to cover these vast states in a campervan, here you’ll find everything you need to know about the places to go and things to do.
Our favourite Aussie destinations


Gold Coast
Travel to the tropical north for world wonders or head south to the state’s capital hub where you can surf on the Sunshine Coast and Gold Coast – definitely the makings of the perfect sunshine holiday.

Sunshine Coast
From the bougie beach vibes of Noosa to Mooloolaba’s foodie scene and the relaxed charm of Caloundra, each coastal town has its own tale to tell. But the real surprises lie just inland: rainforest waterfalls to chase, volcanic peaks to hike, and artisan villages to explore.

Tropical North Queensland
Home of the oldest rainforest in the world, Tropical North Queensland is one of a kind. From serene waters and the Great Barrier Reef to wildlife and rainforest, there's everything for everyone here.

Sydney
In New South Wales you can immerse yourself in everything that is classically Australian, from stunning coastline and awe-inspiring natural wonders to rich history and culture.

Melbourne
Melbournians can’t move for art, culture and hip happenings. It’s true that they’re pros at providing new and novel things to see, do and try out. For traditionalists, the National Gallery of Victoria has been wow-ing art-seekers since 1861.

Tasmania
Take in all those towering forests, deserted beaches, historic sites, beautiful mountains and meet the Tasmanian wildlife – perhaps even the iconic Tasmanian devil.

South Australia
It is both cultural and cool, and its superb shopping, beaches, history and restaurants are not to be missed. It seems like all roads lead to wine and food in South Australia.

Western Australia
If you’re looking to step into a world of awe-inspiring beauty and discover experiences found nowhere else on Earth, then Western Australia is for you.

Northern Territory
Inhabiting much of Australia’s central mainland and central northern regions, the Northern Territory is one of the last remaining genuine ‘Outback’ destinations in Australia.

Australian Rail
Great Southern Rail offers journeys beyond into the wide expanse of the Australian Outback with The Ghan and Indian Pacific. Experience the very best Australia has to offer in a level of comfort only rail travel can provide.

?? Hello to all my
valued clients—old and new! ??
I’m truly passionate about helping people turn their travel
dreams into reality, and I’m thrilled to embark on many more exciting
conversations with you about all things travel!
As the Cruise Master at our store, I’m proud to have earned
my CLIA cruise certification, bringing you expert guidance for your next
voyage.
Whether you’re a familiar face or someone I haven’t had the
pleasure of meeting yet, I’m here to support your travel journey, no matter how
big or small. With 27 years of experience in the travel industry, I’ve had the
privilege of exploring some of the world’s most incredible destinations—Europe,
Asia, the Pacific Islands, the USA, Australia, New Zealand, Africa, and
unforgettable cruises. ??
Travel is more than just a job for me—it’s a true passion. I
love sharing my adventures, insights, and tips with others. There’s no better
time to explore the world than now. Life is short, and travel creates memories
that last forever, leaving you with nothing but joy and no regrets. ??
I invite you to stop by anytime, say hello, and let’s start planning your next adventure! I can't wait to help you create experiences that will last a lifetime. ??

Angela Delany
House of Travel Taupo
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.
Angela

Toni Rendell
House of Travel Rotorua
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.
Whether it’s a quick jaunt across the Tasman, an adventure
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.
