Western Australia

From the Kimberley’s to Rottnest Island, Western Australia has it all.


Why visit Western Australia? Epic nature, unique wildlife and once in a lifetime adventures.

If you’re planning to travel to Western Australia, prepare to discover one of Australia’s most spectacular and diverse destinations. From pristine coastlines and thriving wine regions to ancient landscapes and unique wildlife, a Western Australia holiday offers experiences you wont find anywhere else.

Begin in Perth, a sunny, laidback city set between river and ocean. Relax on white‑sand beaches, explore vibrant neighbourhoods or take a short ferry ride to Rottnest Island to meet the island’s famous quokkas. Just outside the city, the Swan Valley tempts with award‑winning wineries, local produce and long lunches.

For underwater adventure, head north to Ningaloo Reef, one of the world’s few places where you can snorkel straight from the beach alongside majestic whale sharks, friendly turtles and fascinating manta rays. Nature lovers - explore seasonal wildflower trails, dramatic gorges and remote coastlines that define Western Australia’s untamed beauty.

Further afield, the Kimberley’s showcase rugged wilderness, ancient landscapes and unforgettable river cruises, offering a true sense of scale and adventure. Whether you’re hiking, cruising or simply soaking up the vast open spaces, Western Australia delivers a feeling of freedom unlike anywhere else.

From coastal relaxation to epic outback journeys, Western Australia travel is ideal for those seeking nature, wildlife and unforgettable experiences. Explore our latest Western Australia holiday deals and start planning your journey west.

From the first travel I did as a teenager I have wanted to travel the world, experience the food, absorb the culture and learn the history!!!

I have always been passionate about creating the ultimate holidays and feel that makes me the best planner of your holidays that I can be!! 

I had been selling travel for over 20 years when I felt something else was needed and to the leap to be the retail manger of House of Travel Papamoa. I feel I have never looked back and enjoy leading a fantastic group of people!!

I love my job!!! I love the fact that no one holiday is ever the same and also thrive on a challenge of a complex itinerary, round the world flight or something out of the norm. 

I think the benefit you get with me is the experience I have had planning and travel and the places I have travelled. 

I have travelled extensively and in particular done a lot around New Zealand, Australia, South Pacific Islands, USA and Europe and find that travel opens your mind to another world full of new experiences, new tastes and an appreciation for life in general. 

I have a rule that every trip I do I need to pick one unique thing to do on holiday that is un-usual or you would not do on another holiday .... I have been hot air ballooning, have been on a segway tour, have helicoptered out to an island etc.

My Travel Tips

  • I am a bit of a IT geek so always travel with an adaptor that has USB ports for my IWatch, iPhone and iPad. 
  • Have a store of great apps that help with travel, packing, maps, closest toilet etc.!!
  • Always keep in touch with your travel agent so they can keep you up to date with deals that are out for your next holiday.
  • Cash passports are a MUST as safe and easy way to travel. 

The best holidays are definitely created together so would love to get you in for an appointment and have a discussion about your travel dreams.

Having worked in the Travel Industry for 9 years and counting, I am incredibly passionate about detail and no trip is too small!

I have lived in London & Perth, both opening destinations for me to explore! My favourite trips to date were Greece and Thailand. 

Every part of the process excites me, from simple flights, group holidays, to your bucket list trips! 

I enjoy getting to know my clients and I understand that no detail is too small and warm prompt service is key to delivering great customer experiences.
