About Kate
Travel is not about a destination… travel is a journey filled with adventures, moments that take your breath away and stay with you long after you return home. Travel can fulfil dreams. Some of those dreams are big, some much smaller, but no matter the size or the destination, I am there to ensure it is a perfect and utterly seamless experience.
As an experienced travel professional, I see that I have many roles - counsellor, confidante and concierge! Being passionate and knowledgeable about travel is only half of what I have to offer my clients. I pride myself on giving exceptional customer service at all times. Being a home-based consultant I am available 24/7 - I offer my clients flexibility with appointment times and will often have a coffee with a client at 7am before they start their working day or after working hours to fit in with their busy lives.
I have extensive experience in constructing tailor-made itineraries to suit individual needs… whether it be a guided tour, a luxurious river cruise or finding that perfect apartment so you can live like a local. The world is diverse and so very interesting - just like my clients. What is of specific interest to one may not be to you. I make it my priority to ensure that I understand what it is that you want and will deliver the holiday of your dreams.
I've never been a girl to turn down a challenge, I have embraced every opportunity to indulge my adventurous nature from walking 550 kilometres across Spain on the Camino De Santiago, memorable safaris in Africa, white water rafting around the world, climbing mountains in Sri Lanka, trekking through northern Thailand, horseback riding in Patagonia, quad biking in Fiji, cycling through Avignon, France and scuba diving on the Great Barrier Reef.
One of the benefits of being a member of MTA - Mobile Travel Agents is that I am also affiliated with Cruiseco, Virtuoso, Belmond Bellini Club, Virgin Galactic & ATAS.
Consider me to be your own Personal Travel Specialist!

Areas of specialty
I have a love affair with Europe - Italy and France are two of my favourites but after a lengthy stay in Spain and Portugal, I have realised that these destinations offer something very special for travellers.
