Alpine & apres ski ... in Japan!
Japan Ski

With Japan’s ski-resorts getting more than twice the snow dumping that world-famous Utah and Colorado get in a year, it’s no surprise Japan is the flavour of the year for skiers! From small local ski fields to sprawling international resorts, Japan is famous for its quality dry snow and has terrain for everyone. Experience an exciting culture, great food & amazing skiing all at once.
Niseko Village in the Hokkaido region, celebrated for its pristine, powder-covered slope is the place to go! It’s an exciting and vibrant place with three separate ski areas all linked together. This luxury ski resort is located next to a towering active volcano! After a day of skiing or boarding unwind in an onsen pool and enjoy apres-ski in style. Sinking into an onsen (a Japanese style hot pool) at the end of a hard day on the mountain to ease the muscles then heading out for an authentic Japanese meal and maybe even a spot of Karaoke is unbeatable! Dinner at Dragons Den, an amazing little bar and restaurant overlooking the piste, provides the perfect place to enjoy a well earnt Sapporo and look up at the fresh tracks you’ve just carved into the mountain.
For a fully immersive experience fly to Sapporo on the island of Hokkaido – if you go in February take part in the Snow Festival known for its amazing ice sculpture competition.

I have had a lifelong love affair for exploring the world. Raised in a family that prioritised travel, I inherited a passion for all things travel. I have lived in different countries (London, USA, Argentina) and I am fascinated with the rich tapestry of culture, people, religion and food in new places.
My love for travel has taken me to some of the world’s most amazing places!
From Mauritius to Bahamas and all in between, I have been privileged to experience the world and being able to speak and understand 5 languages English, Afrikaans, Dutch, German and Greek) certainly comes in helpful.
I have grown up in South Africa, spending most of my adult life there, being able to show my clients what makes this region so unique is a privilege. Africa was my backyard after all and even after living in NZ for almost 12 years, my heart still beats to the African Drum.
For me, choosing a favourite destination is impossible. But .. Bali has literally captivated my heart, and even though I have been there 20+ times, I still always find new things to uncover. As does the Maldives, Mauritius and Seychelles, these islands just have the “it” factor
I also love ocean cruising, especially Mediterranean and the Caribbean. Cruising offers such a great variety and a chance to see multiple destinations and experiencing iconic landmarks and locations from your hotel on the sea.
I WOULD SAY MY PASSION IS MAKING MY CLIENTS DREAM HOLIDAYS COME TRUE AND I PRIDE MYSELF ON MY EFFICIENT SERVICE AT ALL TIMES.
