Rebecca made booking a holiday to Disney easy. We wanted to do a week at Disneyland Florida followed by a week in the Caribbean. She talked us through the different options and the pros and cons for our family. She has completely coordinated everything from flights (international and local) to hotels, park entry and fast passes. Her knowledge of what ‘works’ has taken all of the stress out of booking a trip like this. I can’t thank her enough and will definitely be recommending her to friends and family.

Tanzania: A Journey That Will Stay With Me Forever
14 December 2025
Africa holds a very special place in my heart, and this year I was lucky enough to return — this time to Tanzania with my family. Nothing could have prepared us for just how magical, wild and unforgettable this trip would be.
Osaka & Our Final Farewell: The Perfect Ending to Our Japan Adventure
14 December 2025
Our final stop on this unforgettable journey was Osaka, and if there’s ever a place to end a trip on a high… this is it.
Kyoto: The City That Captured My Heart
14 December 2025
After leaving Hiroshima, we hopped back onto the bullet train — now feeling like complete naturals at navigating Japan’s spotless, efficient transport system — and set off for Kyoto. I’d heard so much about this city before visiting, but nothing prepared me for just how special it truly is. If there was ever a place that felt like the beating heart of traditional Japan, Kyoto is it.
Hiroshima: A Moving, Humbling Chapter of Our Japan Adventure
14 December 2025
Our next stop on our Japanese adventure was the remarkable city of Hiroshima, where we spent two nights staying at the Hilton Hiroshima. After the excitement and adrenaline of Universal Studios, arriving in Hiroshima felt like a complete shift in pace — calm, reflective and grounding. As soon as we checked in, we made a beeline for the hotel’s indoor pool for a much-needed relaxing dip. After a r
Osaka: Bullet Trains, Minions & Mario Magic — the Ultimate 8th Birthday in Japan
14 December 2025
This was our family’s first time on the Shinkansen (bullet train), and for my eldest — who has loved trains since he was tiny — it was a dream come true. Standing on the platform, watching these immaculate white trains zoom past at lightning speed, was genuinely thrilling. There’s something so uniquely “Japan” about it — the efficiency, the excitement, the quiet whoosh as they fly by. The boys wer
Hakone – Hot Springs, Ropeways, and a Peek at Mount Fuji
04 September 2025
After five unforgettable nights in Tokyo, it was time for our next adventure — Hakone. Boarding our first train out of the city felt like the journey was truly beginning. I’ll never forget standing on the platform watching the train pull in and seeing the seats automatically rotate to face the new direction of travel — such a small but typically Japanese touch of efficiency! Tickets were already
Discover Tokyo: Your Perfect First Stop on a Japan Adventure
10 August 2025
Japan is one of those destinations that truly captures your heart — a beautiful blend of ancient traditions, cutting-edge technology, and unforgettable food. Earlier this year, I spent three incredible weeks exploring Japan with my family, and it has firmly become one of my all-time favourite destinations. We travelled across the country, but our journey began in Tokyo — a city that sets the tone

Japan has been at the top of my travel wish list for years—and having just spent three incredible weeks exploring this breathtaking, mind-blowing, and totally unique country, I can confidently say… three weeks wasn’t enough!

Norwegian Aqua: Setting Sail as the World's Newest Luxury Cruise Experience

This is a great ship for multi-generational families, couples, solo travellers, seasoned cruise lovers, or even first-timers. It truly has something to offer for everyone.

Mauritius - more than just a beach
18 December 2024
There’s no denying it, Mauritius is home to beautiful white sandy beaches, but what surprised me during my visit was how much more it had to offer. Located just east to Madagascar in the Indian Ocean, for a relatively small island (you can drive from north to south in just a couple of hours), there is so much to see and do and the landscapes change dramatically. The south is lush and mountainous
