The diversity, the history, the architecture and artists, culture, sights, quirks and cuisine.
Everything about Europe is eclectic. Vineyards roll into villages and cutting-edge cities share their borders with century-old castles. Wine varietals are as vast as the vineyards where they thrive, from Riesling on the Rhone to a sparkling region by the name of Champagne, Europe really is the wine capital of the world. And the cuisine has been unmatched since, well forever.
Don’t forget the architecture and the artwork either. Shaped by masters such as Gaudi and Michelangelo, as well as the Romans, the Greeks and their numerous gods, beauty is everywhere. A continent of confidence, Europe is a crowd-pleaser and an undisputed head-turner.

Over the last 18 years I have sent many people to many different places, learning more every time.
I enjoy working with people to plan their adventures to create memories to keep for life.
In the last years we have mastered how to deal with flight and regulation changes. Travel is more complicated but we're here to make it as easy as possible for you, so you can explore the world.

After 30 years selling travel, its still a buzz creating fabulous holidays, watching my clients anticipation and being a part of the planning, knowing the excitement they have towards their journey and of course hearing all about it when they return ... It's almost as good as being on the trip with them!
Travel has really changed over the last few years, so let me help you navigate this new travel era, and create a holiday to remember, with the backing of an incredible House of Travel team.

making life long memories.

Hi, I'm Eilish – I have a love for exploring the world, with a soft spot
for Europe, Bali and youth travel.
I love putting together smooth, personalised travel plans, using my
organisational skills and fun, bubbly personality. Helping people turn their
dream holidays into reality, making sure every detail is just right.
In 2024, I was proud to be named a Contiki Champ, which was a personal
accomplishment with a brand I have tried and tested and love myself.
Whether it’s a group getaway or a solo journey, my goal is to help people
discover new destinations, create lasting memories, and feel confident while
exploring the world.
