About Anne

Personally, I have never been a traditional travel advisor who worked in a shop front situation, instead opting to work for myself as an independent contractor working from home and meeting with clients online, in their homes, at cafes, or at their work.

Being a part of MTA - Mobile Travel Agents means bringing together big business buying power and traditional customer service to provide an exceptional experience for you! My one wish is to convey the love for travel and exploring the world, to everyone I meet!

Previous experience

Involved in the travel industry for 30 years including 6 years as the owner of 2 Jetset Travel Agencies, 24 years as a mobile travel consultant independent contractor. Since 2016 I have had my own online specialty cruising business AccessAbility Cruising.

Areas of specialty

I am a fully accredited CLIA Master and Accessibility Cruise Consultant.
I specialise in everything cruising, in particular, arranging cruise holidays for people of all abilities.
I have travelled and covered most of the USA and Canada, New Zealand and the Pacific, China and most of Asia, UK and many countries in Europe much of which involved ocean and river cruising.
I can organise anything you need in relation to a cruise holiday, be it:
Traditional ocean cruising,
Luxury ocean cruising,
Expedition cruising,
River cruising, or
Packaging a cruise holiday with other land and/or air travel.

My association with Virtuoso Travel means I am one of a few advisors in Australia who has access to very special rates for cruising and hotels. For cruising I can offer voyages where you have a host on board and enjoy a welcome cocktail party, and a choice of onboard spending money or a personalised shore excursion. For hotels I can offer you, room upgrades, food and beverage credits, spa packages, and more.
