    With a passion for crafting unforgettable journeys and a wealth of personal travel experience, Andrea Meldrum is your go-to professional for creating custom worldwide itineraries.

    Whether exploring Teotihuacan in Mexico, walking the ancient streets of Ephesus, dancing the salsa in Havana or snowboarding in Chile's highest ski resort, Andrea’s diverse experiences fuel her passion for creating unique travel experiences for her clients.

    Hiking the Inca Trail surrounded by breathtaking landscapes and bonding with fellow adventurers from different corners of the world left an indelible mark. Living and working in a ski resort in Canada’s Lake Louise, exploring the snow and mountains like a local was another highlight. A solo journey through Europe for seven weeks was another transformative experience as Andrea blended seamlessly into various cities, connecting with locals and fellow travellers. And criss-crossing the world’s oceans on 19 separate voyages, has given her an insider’s ability to craft unforgettable journeys at sea.

    “I love having the opportunity to assist my clients in exploring the world. It sounds corny, but I believe travel shapes who we are, and our experiences build us,” she says.

    One of Andrea's most remarkable professional achievements was crafting a world trip for a retired gentleman who wanted to sail the world on a sold-out cruise. So, weaving together various cruise lines, she orchestrated a journey from Adelaide to Adelaide via Tokyo, Delhi and Germany. Her client enjoyed river cruises, quality family time in Germany, and even a stopover in Paris for cheese and baguettes, with plenty of special surprises thrown in. When he fell ill in New York, Andrea's dedication shone through. She diligently located him in a Manhattan hospital, contacted his family, and ensured he received the necessary care. Her unwavering commitment and quick thinking saw her grateful client book another five-week adventure after recovering.

    “It was five weeks of memorable train journeys, cruise, cars, lodges and many, many laughs.” says Andrea.

    Andrea’s infectious love for travel is reflected in the unforgettable journeys she creates. Her clients appreciate her personalised care, professional and friendly customer service, and ability to understand their desires, even when they are unsure themselves.

    “My personal travel experiences have opened my eyes and fuelled my passion for exploring. I love sharing them with my clients so they can enjoy similar experiences,” she says.

    With Andrea on your team, you're not just booking a trip; you're embarking on the adventure of a lifetime.

    Get to know me

    What are your favourite destinations to visit and why?

    Europe is always the top of my list of favorite destinations as no matter how many times I've visited. You can always find exciting and interesting secrets hidden around the next corner. I am a history buff and love to walk the paths of those who have already explored before me. Cuba is a close second with its rich culture, fascinating history and vibrant people.

    What is your number one travel tip?

    Spend the time to do the most of your planning and research before you leave to make sure you can relax and enjoy every part of your holiday. While you're away, be open to talking to new people, be interested to ask questions and start conversations to learn about other travelers' experiences.

    Andrea's client testimonial

    I cannot speak more highly of the work Andrea from Travel associates Glenelg did to ensure my recent trip was superb.
    After not having travelled for a long time it couldn't have been clearer for me.
    Her planning, communication, advice & clear explanations were first rate. My accommodation was so central and flight connections always left enough time I was never stressed.
    When I hit a medical issue Andreas immediate follow up, assistance in preparing the forms and communication meant I was very well looked after by the health insurance company.
    Her immediate work meant my claim was processed very quickly.
    I will absolutely be using her again and recommending her to anyone I know planning travels.
