I’m originally from Australia, but after visiting New Zealand I loved it so much that I settled here and now call Wanaka my home. Wanaka is a place everyone should see, so if I get to help you plan your New Zealand Coach Tour don't be surprised if it includes a stop here.

Although born and bred in Scotland I am now lucky enough to call New Zealand home. Travel has always been a passion of mine so what better place to live than in Wanaka, surrounded by beautiful outdoor activities and so much natural beauty. Making sure your coach tour experience is all this, and more, is what I can do for you.

I emigrated to NZ some years ago, now from my homeland of Germany. In short I loved this place and everything I could enjoy in it. So, sharing and planning New Zealand tours and holidays is extremely enjoyable and making sure it’s the same for you is number 1 for me.

I grew up in Christchurch and spent most of my summers in Central Otago. I took off overseas as soon as I finished university and explored the world for a few years, returning to New Zealand with a new appreciation of the country for it's beautiful scenery and our special culture. With my extensive knowledge of New Zealand and all it has to offer I look forward to making all your New Zealand holiday dreams come true.

I came to New Zealand from the UK but was actually born in Greece. I have been lucky enough to travel all over the world (32 countries to be exact) but my passion for skiing, hiking and the outdoors drew me to New Zealand and I never left. I live in the beautiful South Island town of Wanaka but have explored all four corners of New Zealand and cant wait to share it with you.

I was born in Cape Town and moved to the hustle and bustle of London when I was 10 years old. I craved fresh air, mountains and an outdoors lifestyle so made the move to Wanaka and am loving every minute!! My weekends consist of trying to cram in as much hiking, skiing, and kayaking as possible. I absolutely love to explore and find hidden gems. I have the best job.. sharing these hidden gems with you!
