Peru

Mystical mountains, ancient wonders and vibrant flavours


A land of mystery and adventure

From the misty peaks of the Andes to the untouched depths of the Amazon, Peru truly is a land of mystery and adventure.

Trek the legendary Inca Trail to Machu Picchu, where ancient ruins emerge from the clouds like a scene from a movie, sail across the shimmering waters of Lake Titicaca or explore the vibrant streets of Cusco, full of colourful markets, lively music and smiling faces.

Food lovers will be in heaven. Peru’s world-famous cuisine is a flavour explosion, from zesty ceviche to hearty lomo saltado and stuffed rocoto relleno peppers, all washed down with pisco sours - of course!

Whether you’re hiking, sightseeing, engrossing yourself in centuries of fascinating history or enjoying a drink with a spectacular view, Peru is a destination that will stay in your heart long after you leave.

Flight time

The flight from Auckland to Peru takes roughly 17.5 hours with a stopover. It's a long haul, but so worth it for the wonders of this ancient land.

Best time to go

For trekking and major cultural experiences, June to August is the time to go as it's dry, but a couple of months either side of this works too.

Time difference

Peru is between 17 and 18 hours behind New Zealand, depending on Daylight Saving in Aotearoa, so there's bit of adjustment to be made when you get there.

Travel fuels my soul, the experiences, the opportunities, the culture, the adventures, I have been lucky enough to have a career that is a labour of love. Planning holidays with a high degree of skill, attention and knowledge has become my trade mark.

I absolutely adore planning epic family trips, luxurious holidays alongside organizing a lot of corporate travel business as well. I also travel a lot, as often as I can so I have up to date first hand experience in so many areas. This has given me the skill and experience to share with my clients and ensure they also come away with travel experiences second to none. I work with a large referral business and I do require appointments to fully assess what is going to be right for you and start planning your holiday.

What truly sets me apart is that I believe in creating travel experiences as unique as you are. I take the time to understand your preferences, your dreams, and even those little quirks that make your ideal trip special. 

It’s not just about booking flights and hotels; it’s finding that hidden gem of a restaurant in Barcelona or securing the best view of the Pyramids in Egypt, I’m committed to delivering experiences that go beyond the ordinary. 

I also pride myself on being incredibly accessible and responsive. If a last-minute change or unexpected challenge arises, I’m just a phone call or message away, ready to jump in and ensure everything goes smoothly. 

My goal is to make every moment of your trip memorable, stress-free, and tailored just for you.

Having been with House of Travel for 13 years I really enjoy how even after all this time every day is different. I can still find new destinations to learn about and expand on my knowledge through travel I have booked. Hearing about how my client’s travels went and what they experienced is always a highlight!

I encourage clients to keep in touch throughout their trip as I love receiving a photo now and then to see where their adventures are taking them. To me it's not just a holiday or a travel experience we are booking, it's memories we are helping create that will last you a lifetime.

“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So, throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbour. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” – Mark Twain.

So don't wait, get in touch to plan your next big adventure today!

Travel is a passion for me, I have been in travel for quite some time (too long to remember) from Corporate to Leisure. 

I aim to help people no matter what their plans are to create the best holiday experience possible. I enjoy being part of our travellers experience and making the whole process as easy as possible & to create fantastic memories that are special and will last a lifetime for themselves and their families.

I have travelled to some amazing places, but one stands out, the 6 months I spent working on Antarctica at McMurdo Station is a highlight & backpacking through India was a challenge.

From visiting the many aspects of Australia, Asia, South Africa & South America to basking in the sun on the Maldives or hitting the beaches and shopping in Thailand I would love to help you create some new stories & memories. I love active holidays and have followed the Moto GP / Formula 1 and the Isle of Man TT was particularly exciting. Followed by walking up on Mt Kinabalu was another eventful trip.

However, every great adventure starts with a plan, and I would be honoured to help you with that plan, whether you take the road less travelled or one of the many roads that lead to Rome.

I look forward to helping you to create more wonderful stories and memories in the coming years.
