Brazil

Where every day is all about electrifying fun

Rio De Janiero, Brazil

Feel the beat of Brazil

Brazil is pure energy... from its golden beaches to its lush rainforests and electrifying cities, this country is all about having a good time.

Feel the rhythm of Rio as you watch the sunset over Copacabana Beach or stand in awe at the 30-metre high Christ the Redeemer statue that dominates the skyline.

Venture deep into the Amazon to immerse yourself in ancient flora that’s remained unchanged for millions of years; experience the pulse of Bahia, where Afro-Brazilian culture and dazzling carnivals bring the streets alive - and indulge in sizzling churrasco, tropical açai bowls, light airy cheese bread and refreshing caipirinhas till you can eat and drink no more.

Whether you’re dancing the night away, exploring breathtaking landscapes, or soaking up the local vibe, Brazil is a feast for all your senses, all at once.

Flight time

The flight from Auckland to Brazil takes roughly 16.5 hours with a stopover, but the energy of this country will wake you up as soon as you land.

Calendar Icon

Best time to go

October and November offer Brazil’s best weather without the crowds. If you're after sun, sand, and Carnival energy, plan your trip between December and March, but expect the masses!

Time difference

Brazil is between 14 and 16 hours behind New Zealand, depending on Daylight Saving, but if you make like the locals and hit the ground partying, it won't be so bad.

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.

Customer service has always been drilled into me. After begging my way into a cafe job at 14, I then spent 12 years working in the hospitality industry supervising restaurants and managing specialty cafes which also founded my love for all different types of foods.

After spending 3 years in Melbourne, 6 months in South East Asia and a few years in the UK I finally made the switch to the travel industry where I have been able to share my love for travel and customer service ever since.

I made it through the dark years of COVID in the industry which has led me to know to dig that little bit deeper into my clients' travel plans to create that perfect trip, and ensure we really have the best option for you in terms of comfort, reliability, and service. As we just don't know what is round the corner, do we!

I've travelled extensively across Southeast Asia, UK and Europe, spent a lot of time exploring properties in Fiji (and relaxing by the beach), road tripped in California and in 2024 I visited South Africa in Feb, Japan, South Korea and Taipei! I've got many more places on my bucket list to visit, but if I haven't been, I've got a superb team of people behind me who have and we'll work out the best trip for you! My ultimate passion when I travel is trying local foods, and finding the best possible places to have that authentic experience that we wouldn't be able to have at home. So if that resonates with you, I'd love to hear from you and let's put together your foodie adventure, together :)
