Discover a different Australia
Our favourite Active Holiday experiences
If you like your holidays with a bit of heart-pumping adventure, Australia delivers in spades. Cycle through world-class wine regions, coastlines and countryside on a guided bike tour, where every trail comes with views (and often, vineyard stops).
Lace up your boots for the Great Walks of Australia – from the rugged wilderness of Tasmania’s Bay of Fires to the dramatic coastline of the 12 Apostles. These guided multi-day hikes combine nature, comfort, and cultural connection in equal measure.
Pack the clubs and tee off on one of the Great Golf Courses of Australia, playing championship greens set against dramatic coastal cliffs, desert backdrops or rolling fairways.
Whether you’re chasing challenge or just looking to move a little more while you explore, Australia’s wide-open spaces and legendary landscapes are ready when you are.

With over 20 countries
visited and four group tours under my belt, I understand just how impactful a
well-planned journey can be. Each trip has given me new insights—not only into
different cultures and places—but also into what truly makes a travel experience
memorable.
I genuinely enjoy the planning process: mapping out itineraries, uncovering
hidden gems, and making sure every detail is just right. It’s this same
thoughtfulness and enthusiasm I bring to every trip I help design. Whether it’s
a relaxed escape, a cultural deep dive, or an adventure-filled group tour, my
goal is to create travel experiences that are exciting, seamless, and tailored
to you.
When I’m not travelling, you’ll usually find me being a proud (and slightly
crazy) dog lady—spending time with my three dogs and competing in dog agility.
My love of animals flows into my travel values too, and I’m a big believer in
travelling ethically and responsibly, with care and respect for local
communities, cultures, and wildlife.

I am an adventure seeker with a passion for exploring the world and experiencing everything it has to offer. I'm always on the lookout for new and exciting experiences and have a particular love for small group tours and adventures. Whether it's cruising in the Galapagos Islands or exploring new cities, I love the intimacy and camaraderie that comes with traveling in small groups.
When I'm not adventuring, you can often find me at live sports and events, cheering on my favourite teams and soaking up the excitement of the crowd. Or I'm equally at home soaking up the sun during a beautiful island beach holiday.
I also have a love for cruising and have had the opportunity to explore new destinations such as the Mediterranean, the coastlines of Spain and Portugal, the Rhône and Saône Rivers in Southern France, canal boating in England, and cruising across the Tasman. All while enjoying the comforts and amenities of life on the water.
One of my favourite pastimes is people watching whether it's from a cafe in Paris or on the streets of New York. For me, there is nothing more fascinating than observing the unique and diverse cultures of the world and the interactions of the people within them. I'm always seeking out new experiences and adventures, driven by a deep curiosity and a thirst for knowledge and understanding.
