When I travel there is always a bar, cafe or restaurant I have in my sights. This one is on my list for Palm Springs.

TAC/QUILA
The bar, known for its tasty food, features mini sizes of their four specialty margaritas: kiwi mint, pineapple, watermelon, and blackberry. The kiwi mint is a crowd favourite, made with blanco tequila, fresh kiwi juice, fresh lime juice, and yes, it’s available as a full pour once you’ve tasted your way through the flight.

I just received this incredible photo from a client on her way to Tromso to join Ponant’s “Between the Scandinavian Peninsula and The High Arctic” sailing.

If visiting this area of the world, be prepared for spectacular scenery with icebergs, sea ice and volcanic mountain landscapes for as far as the eye can see. An area where nature reigns supreme.

The smaller size ships on Ponant’s sailings make it possible to get to hard to reach destinations - giving you the chance to discover hidden spots and be up close and personal@with your natural surroundings.

If you are interested in taking a sailing onboard Ponant or any other ship, get in touch today.

Why Do Travel Agents Charge Service Fees? 28/03/2024

FEE’s - I’m always transparent with the fees I charge for my professional service - I continually outline them in my email communication.

However , there are times when I feel defeated when I have to explain why I charge fees - but I always tell myself “I can cut my own hair, but I don’t, I’m happy to pay a professional to do that”.

Which is exactly what you are doing when you engage a travel agent.

This article from Travel Agent Achievers gives an in-depth insight into why we charge fees.

Why Do Travel Agents Charge Service Fees? Unsure why Travel Agents charge service fees? Like any other professional service provider, this is how travel agents make a living. They have spent years learning and mastering their skills and when booking with a travel agent, you are receiving many advantages you won't get when booking online.

HAWAII in April.

Don’t discount a trip in April. Spring is an ideal time to visit Hawaii - with an average high of 27degrees, fewer visitors and greater possibility of grabbing a deal.

Also, it’s much drier than the previous months, so you can finally hit the beach thinking about rain.

With events like the Merrie Monarch Festival, which celebrates the art of hula, and the Annual Waikiki Spam Jam, where Spam lovers from around the world gather to try unique Spam-filled dishes.

Additionally, April is the perfect time to spot whales and other marine life as they migrate to the islands for the breeding season.

No Regrets

“Live life with no excuses, travel with no regret” – Oscar Wilde

My passion and my specialty is helping travellers get the most of their experience but with minimal impact. I believe in responsible, sustainable, ethical tourism which benefits the people & the environment visited but ultimately provides you with a more authentic, more enjoyable and memorable holiday.

Travel is my life, and I love it. That’s why I’m here! There are so many reasons to travel, so many destinations and so many decisions. Traveling alone, with family, for wellness, sports, or just to be anywhere but home. All wonderful reasons, but let me help you make each and every journey a contender for the “what was the best moment of your life question”.

I have a wide range of knowledge and experience in the tourism industry. After completing a degree in Business with an emphasis in Hospitality and Tourism, I have spent over a decade working in related industries, including hotels, national tourism boards, retail & wholesale travel agencies. And, of course, I have done my fair share of travelling myself.
