Specialties & Accreditations

Fiji

Imagine the warm, clear water surrounding you. A tiny seahorse cruises by your mask as you take in the magic of the underwater world. I've snorkeled many lagoons in the South Pacific, but feel the pull of Fiji the strongest. Fijian's are famous for making travelers feel welcome and there's no better way to mingle then taking the Blue Lagoon cruise visiting local villages and tranquil remote islands, like I have. A perfect destination for honeymooners and island hoppers alike, I'll share my first hand experience and help you find the right part of Fiji. With over 300 islands it can be hard to seek out the best gems - Vomo Island, Castaway Island, Malolo Island, Denerau, Viti Levu and Vanua Levu are just a few that I recommend. Call me today and make Fiji your next destination.

New Zealand

Let me tell you about sailing in Auckland, the City of Sails, about the sparkling water of the harbor and view of bungee jumpers diving off the bridges. Endless adventure is to be had in New Zealand. Always wanted to climb inside a giant ball and roll down a hill? Zorbing is only one of the unique sports that await once you get there. Take it from someone that's been there, both the North and the South Islands offer sights and experiences that are well worth the journey. Whether you want to watch the sheep being sheared near the Agrodome or take part in a traditional Maori Hangi in Rotorua, I'll help you plan the right trip for you. Contact me today and we'll get you one step closer to the beauty of New Zealand.

Tahiti

Seeking the best spa treatment on Tahiti? How about the best lagoons for snorkeling? Wondering where to find the catch of the day? You've come to the right place. I've snorkeled the lagoons, experienced spa treatments, swam with dolphins, helped rehabilitate sea turtles and enjoyed some of the best meals in my life - and I'd like to help you do the same. I send many, many people to Tahiti and i, especially honeymooners and destination wedding parties. so I can help you select the right place to stay, as well as suggest things to do while there. I'm an Aussie Specialist, so I'm very knowledgeable about travel to both Australia and New Zealand. s a certified Tahiti Tiare Specialist I guarantee to help you find the ideal resort, the freshest cuisine and the right activities that make your vacation one for the record. Contact me now and we'll plan your next trip together!
