“After a safari in the wilderness, you’ll welcome a decadent high tea served in The “T” Lounge at Fairmont The Norfolk Hotel in Nairobi. It’s very refined. Just make sure you remove your khaki stubbies — no shorts here! ”
Witness the wildebeest migration in Tanzania
Tanzania
		An annual migration of epic proportions. And memories just as immense.
Considered one of the world’s most profound events, witnessing the annual wildebeest migration from the Serengeti Park in Tanzania to Kenya’s Maasai Mara reserve is undisputedly, an experience of a lifetime. These are sights you may never observe again.
A 1200-mile odyssey made by wildebeest, zebra and smaller (yet equally ambitious) creatures, you expect to be bowled over by their quest, but you’ll be equally astonished by the terrain. Vast swathes of rain fall over a never-ending horizon and the savanna, barren yet beautiful, is a kingdom ruled solely by animals.
By daybreak you’ll be tracking the Big Five, by lunchtime you’re dining with a local family. And by the ninth day you’ll have participated in one of nature’s greatest journeys. This one trumps everything.

You
know how some people collect handbags or shoes, well I have a love of
collecting passport stamps! I developed a bit of a passion for adventure travel
since working in the States at a summer camp in my early 20’s. I have travelled
to over 40 countries, doing everything from eating scorpions in China,
snorkelling the Silfra fissure in Iceland, to skydiving in Namibia.

Being a friendly and bubbly
person, I appreciate spending time with my clients building their dream
holidays, listening and paying attention to their needs to create special
memories. Let me help you discover the world the way that you would like to.
I feel so fortunate to be a part of this wonderful travel industry that I am so
enthusiastic about and find that my passion to help others shows when working
in my happy place.
I have travelled through Europe with Contiki in my early 20's which was such a
wonderful way to get a taste for the European culture and food, opening my mind
to Europe's uniqueness. In 2023 I travelled to London to watch an All Blacks
game at Twickenham Stadium which was absolutely fantastic, then completed a
Trafalgar tour of England and Scotland. I was so blown away by the historic
palaces and magnificent landmarks as well as iconic attractions. 
Recently I was in Central Europe and embarked on a Scenic River cruise from
Budapest through Vienna and Bratislava on the Danube. Cruising through the
European waterways being inspired by the picture-postcard villages and castles.
It was like being in a dream. If you have ever thought of doing a European
River cruise, I highly recommend it. Come see me to have a chat about this
incredible way of travelling as well as giving you some tips and insights
before you go. 
Selling river and ocean cruises is a passion of mine. It is such an easy way to
travel. Unpacking once, having food included as well as entertainment. Why
would you not love to travel like this. 
I love Asia and the wonderful people, culture and food you experience in these
destinations. I have been to Bali, travelled through Cambodia and the South to
North of Vietnam, as well as parts of Eastern Canada and New York. I cruised
Alaska which I absolutely loved and have had many trips to different parts of
Australia, South Pacific, Asia and South Africa. 
My favourite country would have to be Cambodia, where I thoroughly enjoyed
meeting the locals, travelling this beautiful country, and experiencing the
local food. Waking up at 5am to have a cup of tea whilst watching the sun
rising over Angkor Wat as the local monks walked past. It was a magical moment
and one that will be engraved in my mind forever. 
I can’t wait to meet with you to discuss your individual travel enquiries.
