What you need to know

Travel Brokers are much the same as the travel agents you see in shops downtown, except that we tend to run our own businesses from home.  I'm  supported by New Zealand’s top broker group, The Travel Brokers – a division of Helloworld.  They keep me up to date with the latest travel technology and provide excellent administration support so that I can focus on providing you with the best service on the front line.

No!  While I specialise in expedition cruises, I can also sort all other aspects of your travel - including flights, accommodation, sightseeing tours and car or motorhome hire. 

It depends what you're booking and when you're travelling. 

Flights generally have to be paid for within 1-7 days of booking. 

Other travel arrangements (cruises, tours, accommodation, etc) can often be held until up to 6 weeks prior to travel before payment is due, but may require a small deposit at the time of booking.

Absolutely! Just email me (or use the contact form) with your flight details together with name and date of birth and I'll send you a quote.

No!  99% of the time I can get the same deal (if not cheaper) than what you’ll find online. 

Think of using a travel broker the same way you would use an insurance broker – I know the product, have great resources and am efficient at looking around to see what deals are available. 

I also have access to a range of wholesale rates and availability that aren’t generally available to the public.  

I’m based in Ōhope, in the Bay of Plenty of region of New Zealand, but I can book travel arrangements worldwide, regardless of where your home base is.

My clients are spread throughout New Zealand and I also have several in Australia, Europe and Canada. 

While it’s nice to catch up with clients face to face over a coffee, most of my work is done via email and phone.  I’m also happy to arrange video meetings if you prefer to chat long distance in “person”.
