Family fun in the snow in Canada

Canada, North America

Great family holidays are made in Banff and Lake Louise. Home to three resorts, collectively known as SkiBig3, with one of the longest ski seasons in North America there is a ski slope for every kind of skiing.

And there are plenty of other snow activities to keep all the kids (big and small!) entertained.

Bundle the kids in a warm sleigh and go dog-sledding through the forest with Banff’s Warner Stables (hot chocolate and marshmallows included.

One of the best value activities is Banff Gondola, while those 8-years-old and over can give snowshoeing a shot.

Ice-skating at the Fairmont Chateau Lake Louise is right on the lake, and scores top points for magical scenery.

And for the older kids, winter night tubing at Mount Norquay always delights!

Travel -it broadens our views, creates lasting memories and allows you to take a break from the ordinary.

In recent years, I have taken to much more adventurous travel, heading to Central Asia and exploring Uzbekistan and Kyrgyzstan, exploring much of Vietnam, Sri Lanka and Shanghai and looking forward to our next adventures in Africa.

I love travelling with my family and seeing my teenage girls minds blown by the experiences they have in different countries - different ways of living, different foods, different cultures, amazing sites (and sights!) and really seeing what is important to other people outside of NZ.

I love hearing about the epic adventures people have planned and love helping pull things together to give you your Best Holiday Ever. Give me a call or send me an email to get started on your next journey.

My love for travel kicked off early, I entered the industry at 19 and have been lucky enough to turn that passion into a career. I’ve explored over 45 countries and experienced travel in just about every way imaginable: solo adventures, OEs, family holidays, cruises, group tours, and everything in between.

Having lived in several countries, I’ve developed a deep appreciation for the diversity of travel and how personal each journey can be. I truly believe the best holidays start with thoughtful planning, and I love helping others turn their travel dreams into reality.

I bring a mix of energy, enthusiasm, and people-focused leadership to my role. I’m a bubbly, approachable personality who thrives on connecting with others, but I’m also highly organised and passionate about ensuring everything runs smoothly behind the scenes.
