We don’t rely on brochures; we rely on our firsthand experience and deep connections. We are truly in the know and ready to share our tips and advice to make your journey extraordinary. We’re not your average travel agency—we’re passionate specialists who go above and beyond for our clients.

When you travel with us, you’re not just a client; you’re part of our extended travel family, and we’re here to ensure your journey is as safe, seamless, and enjoyable as possible.
Reason #4: Personal Service Means Flexibility
Say goodbye to the old 9-to-5! We understand that regular office hours don’t always work for everyone. That’s why we’re flexible and ready to assist you, no matter where you’re located—whether it’s Ottawa, Salt Lake City, Victoria, BC, Coeur d’Alene, or anywhere else in Canada or the USA.
As your Australia and New Zealand Travel Experts, we’re here to make planning your dream trip convenient and stress-free, working around your schedule to provide the personal service you deserve.
Reason #5: Emergency Support 24/7 Through Our Associate Offices

Reason #6: Only the Best, Trusted Providers
We work exclusively with top-notch, reputable accommodations, tours, and airlines that are personally vetted by us or our in-country associate offices. While we do not work with Airbnb properties due to our inability to inspect them, every provider we recommend meets our high standards to ensure your trip is safe, seamless, and unforgettable. If it’s not good enough for our own family, it’s not good enough for you!
Reason #7: Access Our Insider Rates
We constantly attend conferences and meet with our travel suppliers to inspect properties and negotiate the best rates possible for you. Whether you’re departing from Seattle, Charlotte, NC, Charleston, SC, or anywhere else in North America, we have you covered.
Reason #8: Little Details That Make a Big Difference
Our clients consistently rave about our meticulous attention to detail. From start to finish, we go above and beyond to ensure your vacation is as hassle-free and personalized as possible. It’s the little things that transform a trip into an unforgettable experience, and we make sure every detail adds up to something extraordinary.
Reason #9: With You Every Step of the Way
Some travel consultants focus on handing over your documents and moving on to the next client. Not us. As the best Australia and New Zealand travel specialists in Canada and the USA, we’re with you from start to finish. From the moment your journey begins until your curated Australia or New Zealand vacation is complete, you’ll have our full support every step of the way.
Reason #10: Tailor-Making Your Vacation is Our Specialty
