I am a Travel Broker with over 45 years of experience, working from my home office in Rangiora. I serve a diverse customer base across North Canterbury, Christchurch, other parts of New Zealand, and even overseas.

My travel career has included management roles in Sydney and London before I made New Zealand my home 40 years ago. Over the years, I’ve built a wealth of knowledge and expertise, helping clients create seamless and memorable travel experiences.

I specialise in arranging travel to the UK and Europe, river cruises, and corporate travel, but I also organise a wide variety of travel experiences to suit my clients' needs. As a dedicated Personal Travel Broker, I’m available 24/7 to provide the highest level of service and support.

My advanced booking systems allow for instant confirmation of flights, hotels, tours, and inclusive package holidays. While most of my client interactions are conducted via email or phone, I’m always happy to meet clients in person by appointment.

I’m passionate about delivering exceptional customer service, ensuring your leisure travel is enjoyable, your corporate travel efficient and effective, and your adventure travel fun. Having visited over 35 countries, I bring personal experience and expertise to every journey I plan.

I offer flexibility and convenience, working with you to book at a time and place that suits you. My services include assistance with international and domestic flights, hotels, cruises, coach tours, travel insurance, rental cars, transfers, and sightseeing options. I provide free research, pre-seating and advance check-in where possible, document delivery, and tailored arrangements for groups, sports teams, and incentive travel.

Travel is my passion, and I’m here to ensure your journey is seamless, enjoyable, and expertly managed.

  • You are honestly amazing John! You made the trip so easy and were so helpful.We will definitely book through you again next time we travel, and we’ll be recommending you to our friends. Melissa H.

    Just wanted to say thank you very much for helping us with the delay issue. We have always been very impressed by your service but you blew us away with the way you responded the other night and that you checked in with us the next day………Thanks again John, we are both so grateful to you for being so efficient and easy to deal with. It means so much knowing we have a dependable broker in times like these. Claire W.

    This was the first time I didn’t make my own plans and bookings, and you took all the time and uncertainty away so thank you very much for that. I’ll be back next time I decide to leave New Zealand……Sue M.
