Chloe McKellar

House of Travel Wellington City

Customer service has always been drilled into me. After begging my way into a cafe job at 14, I then spent 12 years working in the hospitality industry supervising restaurants and managing specialty cafes which also founded my love for all different types of foods.

After spending 3 years in Melbourne, 6 months in South East Asia and a few years in the UK I finally made the switch to the travel industry where I have been able to share my love for travel and customer service ever since.

I made it through the dark years of COVID in the industry which has led me to know to dig that little bit deeper into my clients' travel plans to create that perfect trip, and ensure we really have the best option for you in terms of comfort, reliability, and service. As we just don't know what is round the corner, do we!

I've travelled extensively across Southeast Asia, UK and Europe, spent a lot of time exploring properties in Fiji (and relaxing by the beach), road tripped in California and in 2024 I visited South Africa in Feb, Japan, South Korea and Taipei! I've got many more places on my bucket list to visit, but if I haven't been, I've got a superb team of people behind me who have and we'll work out the best trip for you! My ultimate passion when I travel is trying local foods, and finding the best possible places to have that authentic experience that we wouldn't be able to have at home. So if that resonates with you, I'd love to hear from you and let's put together your foodie adventure, together :)

Plan your Dream Europe holiday with our handy guides

Destination spotlight: France is full of little pleasures

Whether you’re chasing culture in the cities, bliss by the coast, or pure countryside calm, France will always have you saying encore, s’il vous plaît.

Business, Premium, Suites: What it’s really like flying up the front

Flying up front comes with big benefits beyond the seat.

The perks that turn flying into part of the holiday

A trip to Europe is always exciting, but the journey itself can be just as memorable.

Best stopover flights from New Zealand to Europe

Why rush through your journey to Europe when you can add another adventure along the way?

Cheap flights to Europe: Why the lowest fare isn’t always the smartest

Low fares often hide extra fees because budget tickets can exclude essentials like checked baggage, seat selection or meals.

How to travel around Italy?

Europe's most magical train rides

Whether you’re a slow travel convert or chasing that once-in-a-lifetime bucket list moment, these iconic rail journeys will make you fall in love with the journey itself.

Living like a local

This is about heartbeats not highlights — getting your hands doughy in an Italian kitchen, hearing old village stories over a pint, or wandering a backstreet in Portugal that’s not even on Google Maps.

Up-and-Coming Corners of Europe

Beach lovers or history buffers? Early risers or night crawlers? No two travellers are the same. Except for the one question posed by all those who travel. So where to next?

UK and Europe: Taking the scenic route

Find your sea legs or hang on to your land legs. Discover Europe by wheel, rail or sail.

Cruising in a Winter Wonderland

Sail through Europe’s storybook towns, where twinkling lights, mulled wine and magical markets make for the ultimate Christmas escape.

Italy: Food, Glorious Food!

If you’re heading to Italy, come hungry. From silky carbonara in Rome to truffle-dusted risotto in the north, these are the bites worth booking your flights around.

Cruise: The HOT List

Here’s what’s making waves in the world of cruise holidays right now

Small groups big adventures

Delve into rich cultures, histories and cuisine with a fully-coordinated guided tour. Professionally led and planned to perfection, you're in great hands.

Our favourite River Cruises

On a Solo'ish adventure

Got an inner urge to get out and explore, but none of your travel buddies can make it happen? One big misconception is that you must be single if you’re travelling alone.

The roads best travelled in Europe

We believe Europe is best discovered along its tiny lanes and scenic coastal roads. House of Travel Johnsonville’s Danny Hooper picks four of his favourite roadies.

Milestone celebration holiday ideas

Whether you’ve got a big birthday coming up, planning a 3G holiday (aka a fun trip with three generations), or making the most of your family time before the kids head out into the world, we’ve got you covered!
