Flight time
It takes around 24 hours to fly from Auckland to Croatia, including a stopover. Despite the long flight, Croatia’s stunning coastlines and rich history make it a must-visit destination.
Bok! Croatia is calling
Croatia truly is a destination that ticks all the boxes: picture-perfect beaches, enchanting island hideaways, delicious cuisine, and a rich tapestry of culture and history.
Imagine yourself exploring sun-drenched coves along the shimmering Adriatic Sea, enjoying seafood fresh from the ocean, or sampling award-winning wines on islands like sunny Korčula and vibrant, red-roofed Hvar. Venture inland, and you’ll discover stunning landscapes—from rugged peaks to rolling vineyards and charming medieval towns.

Best time to go
The best time to visit Croatia is from May to September, especially if you’re interested in the coastal regions. The summer months are perfect for enjoying the Adriatic Sea and exploring the islands.
Time difference
Croatia is 10 hours behind New Zealand, so you’ll need to adjust to a significant time difference.

Leaving home at 19 with a one way ticket to London to start my OE, it's fair to say I've had the travel bug for years!
Living overseas for 8 years, and in London for four years, I travelled extensively around Europe. Barcelona is my favourite city!
Then living in Melbourne for four years after that, this is where I started my career in travel in 2004. It was my dream job all those years ago and I still smile every day when I come to work now, I LOVE this job!
Nothing brings me more joy then hearing of clients travel plans, putting together itineraries and making their travel experience run as smooth as possible from start to finish.
I like to think I am a friendly, bubbly personality, a good listener and I will take on board your needs while also guiding you with helpful advice and suggestions when needed. I live on a dairy farm in Reporoa with my husband and three young children, I understand the #mum-life juggle and the need to get away and escape for a holiday sometimes! Having travelled to nearly 40 countries, I have lots of experience that I cant wait to share it with you. Looking forward to meeting you soon.

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.
