“Escaping reality on a wilderness adventure where the only way to access your lodge is by seaplane is a great way to switch off. The thrill of grizzly bear and whale watching leaves you speechless”
Paella making in Barcelona
Spain
Return from Spain with the knowhow to whip up a mean Paella.
There are cooking schools with trips to La Boqueria market (Barcelona’s most famous) before you roll up your sleeves and learn how to make tapas. And then there are small group cooking classes in outdoor kitchens, or the chef’s own apartment.
Discover recipes handed down through generations, and classes delivered with complimentary sangria.

Having worked in the Travel Industry for 9 years and counting, I am incredibly passionate about detail and no trip is too small!
I have lived in London & Perth, both opening destinations for me to explore! My favourite trips to date were Greece and Thailand.
Every part of the process excites me, from simple flights, group holidays, to your bucket list trips!
I enjoy getting to know my clients and I understand that no detail is too small and warm prompt service is key to delivering great customer experiences.

House of Travel Hamilton East
I have been in and out of the industry since the 80's I have lived in Australia, Canada, Italy and of course NZ.
I have travelled to some great places but there is still a huge number of countries on my wish list.
There is nothing better than being able to help someone when they are going to a new place...recommend a hotel, restaurant or activity and then have them return to say how much they enjoyed it all.

Having spent 40+ years, 30 owning my own HOT outlet here in the heart of Wellington, in this exciting and ever changing industry you could say that extraordinary resilience is at the top of my skite sheet given the many and varying challenges that have faced travellers over the years.
My clients and colleagues describe me as a passionate people person, who endeavours to get the best out of a traveller's investment.
It is important for me to be inclusive of everyone within a travelling party, to hear the voice of each traveller, and ensure everyone's wishes are met.
Having been to all continents bar Antarctica which is high on my list, I have also travelled in all styles from budget overland backpacking to luxury cruises which allows me to relate to all clients and work with you for what is best for you.
