“I love the challenge of finding the perfect cruise or perfect hotel in the perfect location, and I love sharing my own travel experiences and insights with my clients so I can recommend some great places and activities.”
It was while living and working in England for three years, and travelling throughout the UK and Europe that Simone discovered her passion for travel. “I loved the travel so much, when I got back to Australia I applied for a job as a travel consultant and it’s what I am still doing today!”
Since then, Simone has completed an Associate Diploma in Travel and Tourism and has ticked off so many countries that it’s hard to keep count – with over 60 to the tally so far. She also has a wealth of knowledge to share when it comes to organising cruises and group tours, having experienced both forms of travel many times over in all corners of the globe, from Canada and Egypt to Vietnam and Morocco.
It’s clear that Simone’s wealth of first-hand knowledge, her excellent service and advice proves invaluable for clients, who praise her work in their testimonials.
Luke Jolly wrote: “Thank you, thank you, thank you. Great hotels, great guides, great experience. I can only say you put together a most memorable package. We all had the most enjoyable time.” Peter Coulson was also impressed: “Thanks so much for everything and thanks for organising the surprises for Grace on every flight. We will certainly be using you again in the future.”
For all her clients, Simone has endless pieces of personalised advice. “I highly recommend watching the sunrise over the Angkor Wat in Siem Reap. The colours and reflections are just magical and you feel like you are experiencing something mythical.”
“Another great experience is having a traditional Turkish bath/ hamam in Istanbul. Cagaloglu Hamami is amazing. You feel like you have been transported back in time with beautiful architecture, as it was built in 1741. You leave feeling so clean and refreshed and relaxed.”
Her tips also extend into the wonderful world of cruising. “My favourite cruise experience was cruising through the sounds in New Zealand. Milford Sound is spectacular – mountains surrounding you, flat clear water like you are gliding on glass and magnificent waterfalls cascading down the mountains.”
She’s even experienced a Christmas markets cruise along the Rhine with Uniworld! Near or far, Simone will make your next holiday one to remember.

I just want to say thank you to Simone for the arrangements you made for our recent holiday in Hawaii. I know it was all very last minute which I guess put some pressure on you, but we had a wonderful time and all your efforts made for a hassle-free holiday.
Thanks so much, Simone, for everything and for organising the surprises on every flight. We will certainly be using you again in the future. We can't wait to travel to Asia next!
