Although born and bred in Scotland I am now lucky enough to call Wanaka home. I live for the outdoors whether it be hiking mountains, running and biking trails, swimming lakes…anything that gets my blood pumping and there is always the guarantee of fabulous views whilst doing all this here in the South Island.

I traveled myself for a number of years and adored every minute of it so I love having the privilege of helping you create your perfect traveling experience.

I was born in Dunedin, the lower South Island, but I did my last year of high school in Switzerland. I love to travel and have been to Europe, South East Asia, UK and Dubai but I visited Wanaka every year when I was younger, so I knew this is where I was always going to end up.

I love exploring the outdoors and enjoy skiing, camping and heading out in the 4wd so our base here in Wanaka is the ideal location for that. 

I am a true blue, jandal wearing, BBQ loving New Zealander. My favourite spot in New Zealand, after Wanaka of course would have to be Akaroa. I grew up in Christchurch and just one hour away was Akaroa. My family still has a good old kiwi bach there and spending time with them, bare feet, BBQ dinners, wading in the sea is what it's all about for me.

There are so many spots still like this in New Zealand; untouched pieces of paradise, and getting the chance to share some of these secrets with visitors and hearing about it afterwards still gives me a buzz. 

Originally from a small town in Australia called Walgett, I settled in New Zealand in 2013. I have been to 31 countries so I know what makes a trip truly memorable.

I can't wait to show you just how I love this country and create some itineraries to really blow your customers away!

Originally from Manchester in the UK, I have been living in NZ for 12 years now. I love to travel, to eat good food, and enjoy being outdoors as much as possible.

I have traveled to all corners of NZ, discovering hidden gems & beautiful experiences and would love to share with you what this beautiful country has to offer for your clients.

I’m originally from Australia, but after visiting New Zealand I loved it so much that I settled here and have called Wanaka my home. After working at Treble Cone Ski Field for 3 years I’m now a keen snowboarder, a huge jump from when I first arrived and had never seen snow!

My favourite part of New Zealand would have to be the Catlins, I have been a few times now and I think I have nearly covered all the walks within the area.

Born in Auckland, I was a lucky child whose parents believed holidays and weekends meant the beach, the bush, road trips and winter seaside picnics. Their love of enjoying the New Zealand countryside in a simple but always comfortable manner lives on in me. I have chosen to bring my daughter up in Wanaka, where my most precious moments are still made up of the simple things; listening to the lapping lake and roaring river, the taste of summer vineyards and the feeling of walking through fresh winter snow. I love my home and I know you will too.

A Kiwi girl, born and bred, I spent much of my childhood traveling the country. Be it a train, plane, coach or car - I've seen New Zealand in every way possible - and I fall more in love with my home country every day.

I spend my spare time watching the horse racing, or jet skiing on lakes Rotorua or Taupo and enjoying the outdoors. Lets plan your customers adventure together!

I grew up in Brighton in the UK and after doing a psychology degree I decided to hit the road and go traveling. With a passion for photography and hiking what better place to come than New Zealand.

I traveled from Auckland to Queenstown and saw everything in between. After spending 2 years in Queenstown I decided to head over the hill and work in Wanaka until the big city lights of Auckland came calling.

After growing up in Germany, I left home to travel the world and promptly fell in love with New Zealand. I now live in beautiful Wanaka, and I can't imagine a better use of my time than to help others discover more about this amazing country.
