Flight time.
The flight from Auckland to Greece or Turkey usually takes about 24 hours, with a stopover. While it’s a long journey, the ancient history and beautiful coastlines make it worth the effort.
A dip in azure seas, a sip of pungent ouzo and a trip back in time to oracles and gods – Greece is the very essence of the alluring Mediterranean world. Greece is synonymous with islands – from history steeped Crete, awe-inspiring Santorini and windmill-studded Mykonos and many other gems scattered across the Mediterranean Sea. Feast on freshly caught fish, grilled lamb stuffed vine leaves and sweet baklava. Or devour some feta and figs, and some fresh tomatoes with salt and oil. Sip coffee in a harbour-side café as the fishing boats come into port, amble along country roads while families gather their olives and pat donkeys on their way to village markets with baskets laden with fresh tomatoes.
And then there’s Turkey, with its ethereal landscapes, archaeological sites, mosques, bazaars and fascinating ruins. The coast twinkles and Cappadocia delights. In the cities the air is alive with chatter and the thick scent of Turkish coffee, as well as sweet baklava which is best served like the generosity of its people. Warm.

For as long as I can remember, travel has always been a huge part of my life. I grew up travelling multiple times a year, so it's no surprise I chose a career in the travel industry to carry this on in my adult life!
My love of travelling and experiencing different cultures is what drives me to create bespoke travel itineraries for all of my clients. I truly believe that travel sparks our imagination, feeds our curiosity, and reminds us how much we all have in common.
I have explored various parts of the world along with our own backyard and will continue to do this to not only fulfil my desire to travel more but also to advance my knowledge of locations that may be of interest to my clients.
Excelling your needs, wants and expectations before, during and after travel is my main priority. I would love to create a truly amazing trip and memories that will last you a lifetime!

As the saying goes, “Travel
is the only thing you buy that makes you richer.” I feel incredibly fortunate
to turn that truth into a career, helping others explore the world and enrich
their lives through unforgettable journeys.
I have been privileged to travel extensively, immersing myself in diverse
cultures, iconic landmarks, and off-the-beaten-path adventures that continue to
inspire and energize me.
Growing up in South Africa gave me the unique opportunity to experience my own
“backyard” for nearly 40 years. The breathtaking nature of Africa will always
hold a special place in my heart.
My travels across the UK, Spain, Greece, Turkey, and other European cities have
deepened my appreciation for history and culture.
The perfect holiday for me is anywhere spent with my husband and our amazing
daughters. As a family, we tend to gravitate towards island destinations
because they offer something for everyone. I have been fortunate to visit many
beautiful islands, with my top four being the Cayman Islands, Madagascar, Fiji,
and the Seychelles.
With 20 years of professional experience in the travel industry in South Africa
where I specialized in Corporate, Group, and Incentive Travel. One of the
proudest moment of my career was being named the ASATA (Association of Southern
African Travel Agents) Corporate Consultant of the Year for 2013.
Now, I’m thrilled to bring my skills and knowledge to the New Zealand travel
industry—especially here at House of Travel Rotorua. My rapid response time,
attention to detail, and systematic approach will save you stress and time.
Whether you’re planning a romantic getaway, a multi-generational family trip,
business travel, or a school tour group, I am here to personalise any itinerary
to fit your needs.
So don’t delay—get in touch today and let me make YOUR travel dreams a reality!
Yours in travel,
Ang
