Tropical North Queensland is nature’s ultimate thrill ride—wild, vibrant, and totally unforgettable. Where else can you snorkel the Great Barrier Reef in the morning and wander through the world’s oldest rainforest by afternoon? This slice of paradise is home to not one, but two World Heritage-listed wonders—and enough adventure to fill your camera roll and your soul.
Think laid-back vibes, palm trees swaying, and friendly locals who know how to live life outdoors. Cairns and Port Douglas are your go-to hubs, not just for reef trips and rainforest walks, but also for wild adventures to the Gulf of Savannah and Cape York if you're feeling extra bold.
The weather? Always warm. The lifestyle? Effortlessly chill. Whether you're kicking back on a sun-drenched beach, getting pampered at a rainforest retreat, chasing waterfalls, or white-water rafting down the Barron River—there’s no wrong way to holiday here.
And it’s not just the landscapes that are diverse. The mix of cultures, food, and local stories adds even more colour to this already vibrant part of the world. So pack your sense of wonder—Tropical North Queensland is calling!
Flying from New Zealand to Cairns takes around 5 and a half hours with direct flights available from Auckland with Air New Zealand or from Christchurch with Jetstar. Alternatively, you can connect via Brisbane with multiple daily flights to Cairns available.
From April to November, Tropical North Queensland has warm, sunny days with low humidity—perfect for snorkelling, exploring the Daintree Rainforest, and alfresco dining. This dry season offers ideal conditions for swimming, reef tours, and outdoor adventures, with fewer crowds from April to June and peak travel periods from July to September. From December to March, the region experiences a tropical summer with hot, humid weather and frequent rainfall. While this is the wet season, it’s also when the rainforest is at its most lush, and waterfalls are flowing—great for nature lovers.
Tropical North Queensland is 2 hours behind New Zealand (or 3 hours during daylight saving). This small time difference is easy to adjust to, making for a seamless transition.
Explore one of the world’s greatest natural wonders, teeming with vibrant coral and marine life.
Discover the world’s oldest tropical rainforest, filled with unique wildlife, lush greenery, and ancient plants.
Cruise the Captain Cook Highway from Cairns to Port Douglas for stunning ocean views and charming seaside towns.
Being a friendly and bubbly
person, I appreciate spending time with my clients building their dream
holidays, listening and paying attention to their needs to create special
memories. Let me help you discover the world the way that you would like to.
I feel so fortunate to be a part of this wonderful travel industry that I am so
enthusiastic about and find that my passion to help others shows when working
in my happy place.
I have travelled through Europe with Contiki in my early 20's which was such a
wonderful way to get a taste for the European culture and food, opening my mind
to Europe's uniqueness. In 2023 I travelled to London to watch an All Blacks
game at Twickenham Stadium which was absolutely fantastic, then completed a
Trafalgar tour of England and Scotland. I was so blown away by the historic
palaces and magnificent landmarks as well as iconic attractions.
Recently I was in Central Europe and embarked on a Scenic River cruise from
Budapest through Vienna and Bratislava on the Danube. Cruising through the
European waterways being inspired by the picture-postcard villages and castles.
It was like being in a dream. If you have ever thought of doing a European
River cruise, I highly recommend it. Come see me to have a chat about this
incredible way of travelling as well as giving you some tips and insights
before you go.
Selling river and ocean cruises is a passion of mine. It is such an easy way to
travel. Unpacking once, having food included as well as entertainment. Why
would you not love to travel like this.
I love Asia and the wonderful people, culture and food you experience in these
destinations. I have been to Bali, travelled through Cambodia and the South to
North of Vietnam, as well as parts of Eastern Canada and New York. I cruised
Alaska which I absolutely loved and have had many trips to different parts of
Australia, South Pacific, Asia and South Africa.
My favourite country would have to be Cambodia, where I thoroughly enjoyed
meeting the locals, travelling this beautiful country, and experiencing the
local food. Waking up at 5am to have a cup of tea whilst watching the sun
rising over Angkor Wat as the local monks walked past. It was a magical moment
and one that will be engraved in my mind forever.
I can’t wait to meet with you to discuss your individual travel enquiries.
