NICK HOPKIN

We asked Katrina to create a memorable holiday for me (single dad) and my two teenage kids, to travel around the world, through America (LA, Grand Canyon, Vegas, SF, DC, NYC) and then onto the UK for a family orientated trip[ to see old friends, family and to spread their grandmas ashes. With a leisurely stopover for 2 days in Singapore on the way back to Australia, K fashioned the perfect trip with panache and superior travel knowledge. From securing a hotel room overlooking the World Trade Centre memorial to organising a suped up USA hire car and arranging for a brilliant mix of hotels, motels and fancy pads on a budget. Thanks Katrina - we will remember this for a lifetime. Nick, Caelan and Elodie x

Katrina has booked several holidays for me over the past few years. The latest being this December to Vietnam. I left all the arrangements to her. The flights, itinerary and insurance. All went according to plan. She's also booked my next trip to USA. I have full confidence in her, so I pretty well just leave it to her.

Once again Katrina Carachini has been excellent at her job in organising our beautiful Tasmania cruise. We will as in the past be using her skills for another cruise in December. We have still to meet Katrina face to face, but she always responds online or by phone immediately. Best wishes to her

Katrina as been my No. 1 person to go to whenever I need help with any travel arrangements. She is always cheerful, friendly, informative and I treat her as my friend. I have tested her on several occasions, eg. when I cannot print out my documents, when I have had to ring her at the last minute because I cannot find my flight documents on my I phone, and other times too embarrassing to mention. She has always solved my problems with grace and cheerfulness and not made me sound inefficient and silly.

Deirdre Burns

Katrina has been my No. 1 person to go to whenever I need travel support, information, tickets and bookings. I have tested her on many occasions when I have been unable to either print out my tickets, cannot locate my email on the computer or I phone the day before I fly out and other help needed too embarrassing to mention. I am elderly! On every occasion, nothing is a worry or problem for Katrina and she always is able to solve the problem or reassure me. Katrina gives 110 percent every time. I appreciate her very much. Deirdre Burns

Katrina has been organising our travel arrangements for over 10 years, both with domestic and overseas travel. She is always available to answer questions, if she doesn't have the answer, she will check it out and get back to you promptly. We have found Katrina has an extensive knowledge of the travel industries and destinations. It's reassuring to have Katrina available to make changes to our travel itinerary, if necessary whilst overseas. She is extremely efficient and makes things happen. We would highly recommend Katrina to anyone wishing to book their next holiday.

As always Katrina has offered a fantastic experience in booking our South American cruise in 2026. She has always offered us a great price with the inclusions that we sought and look forward to securing some great airfares & accommodation for this trip and a previous trip we have booked up. Katrina is a credit to the organisation and would have highly recommend her services to any travellers.

Further to my previous testimonial. What I like best personally, is the communication. Katrina will always be available within a reasonable time frame, and follow up with answers. An important service that most industries and businesses of today are lacking in.

Alex Bookluck

Big thanks again to Katrina for making our wonderful travel plans easy and cost effective! Katrina gives us all the options available for us to choose from with prices / quality / timing differences. Her experience gives us peace of mind always when it comes to the finer details such as insurances, covid requirements, interchanging flights (as small as a 6 x seater plane interchange!), etc. in all the varying countries. She couldn't make it any easier for us and the fact she's always going to negotiate the best price for us is a no brainer!

I am very impressed with the service that Katrina provided in assisting me with my first European holiday. The advice and ideas she offered were very helpful and nothing was too much trouble for her.
