Our favourite Aussie Road Trips

Discover a different Australia

From the iconic bends of the Great Ocean Road to the wild beauty of K’gari’s coastline, self-driving is the perfect way to uncover hidden beaches, welcoming towns, and epic landscapes — all on your own terms.

Cruise the coast on a 12-day Sydney to Melbourne drive, soaking in seaside towns and national parks. Venture further on the 10-day Melbourne to Adelaide coastal journey, with rugged cliffs, wildlife and wine waiting along the way. Or swap city lights for wide skies on the 8-day City to Eyre Peninsula adventure, where outback charm meets ocean bounty.

Take it slow with the 12-night Tasmania in Style itinerary — full of gourmet stops, wilderness walks and heritage hideaways. And for something truly unforgettable, explore the heart of the Red Centre on our Uluṟu & Kings Canyon Explorer.

Whether you’ve got a few days or a few weeks, the road is calling.

For a long time, I've told people I have the best job in the world and I still stand by that. 

What could be better than turning peoples dreams into reality? I never know what the day will bring and isn't variety the spice of life? 

My travel journey started a bit later in my life, so I haven't been everywhere YET, but I am having a damn good crack at it, gathering local knowledge along the way.

I thoroughly enjoy the diversity travel offers, especially learning about new and exciting destinations. I am very people focused and thrive on planning the perfect holiday experiences for my clients.

Having a love of travel, I completed a Bachelor of International Tourism Management in 2013.

After a 6 month stint working at Walt Disney World in Florida I returned to NZ and started my career in the travel industry.

After three years I was feeling the itch to travel again so I decided to embark on my second OE and moved to the UK. Living and working there allowed me to travel Europe extensively and my favourite country to date would be Poland. I returned to NZ in 2020.
