Sip, taste, explore - your European journey starts here
Europe is a continent of endless contrasts and captivating charm. Picture lush vineyards that spill into postcard-perfect villages, and bustling cities that share borders with fairy-tale castles. It’s a place where ancient history meets modern life at every corner.
Sip your way across the world’s wine capital, from the crisp Rieslings along the Rhine to bubbly bliss in Champagne. And let’s not forget the cuisine, Europe has been tempting tastebuds for centuries.
Then there’s the beauty that greets you at every turn: architecture crafted by visionaries like Gaudí, masterpieces painted by Michelangelo, and monuments inspired by ancient Greek and Roman gods.
Europe doesn’t just capture attention—it steals hearts. Ready to craft your own European masterpiece? Talk to our friendly Europe specialists today and let’s create your Best. Holiday. Ever!

Customer service has always been drilled into me. After begging my way
into a cafe job at 14, I then spent 12 years working in the hospitality
industry supervising restaurants and managing specialty cafes which also
founded my love for all different types of foods.
After spending 3 years in Melbourne, 6 months in South East Asia and a few
years in the UK I finally made the switch to the travel industry where I have
been able to share my love for travel and customer service ever since.
I made it through the dark years of COVID in the industry which has led me to
know to dig that little bit deeper into my clients' travel plans to create that
perfect trip, and ensure we really have the best option for you in terms of
comfort, reliability, and service. As we just don't know what is round the
corner, do we!
I've travelled extensively across Southeast Asia, UK and Europe, spent a lot of
time exploring properties in Fiji (and relaxing by the beach), road tripped in
California and in 2024 I visited South Africa in Feb, Japan, South Korea and
Taipei! I've got many more places on my bucket list to visit, but if I haven't
been, I've got a superb team of people behind me who have and we'll work out
the best trip for you! My ultimate passion when I travel is trying local foods,
and finding the best possible places to have that authentic experience that we
wouldn't be able to have at home. So if that resonates with you, I'd love to
hear from you and let's put together your foodie adventure, together :)

My passion for travel begun when living in London. I was constantly booking getaways to explore all UK and Europe have to offer and I have not stopped exploring since!
Since coming home, I have been privileged to take many long breaks to explore different parts of the world.
I joined the travel industry just over 5 years ago and have helped many people book their dream holidays, I can't wait to help you with yours!
