    An experienced travel professional with more than 20 years industry experience, Kylie Dowling’s destination knowledge has been supercharged by her extensive travels.

    “I’ve always been excited by travel and saved for my first trip to explore the USA, UK and France when I was 18,” says Kylie, whose insatiable desire to explore has seen her travel the globe, even relocating to the UK for a year.  

    It is this personal experience and knowledge of destinations, combined with a wealth of experience in planning all types of travel experiences, that makes Kylie so valued by her clients.  

    Happiest when she’s traveling with her family, Kylie loves experiencing new cuisines, enjoying local culture and the pinch yourself moments that you only experience in a new destination. Having just returned from a six-week European family holiday, Kylie loved experiencing the Christmas Markets in Strasbourg and the Alsace region. She also ticked sledding more than five kilometres down one of the longest runs in Europe, all the way from Switzerland’s Kleine Scheidegg to Wengen, off her travel bucket list.

    “It was spectacular. There were so many spills and laughs on the way down. It is a run you can also do at night and stop for drinks along the way, as it's all beautifully lit up.”

    Kylie says one of her favourite travel memories was staying at Canada’s Fairmont Lake Louise, overlooking the glittering emerald lake.  “We were so excited by the views and the chance to spot wildlife. We even saw a grizzly bear at nearby Banff.”

    When it comes to other people’s journeys, Kylie says one of her favourite bookings was a multigenerational one.

    “I sent a lovely couple and their extended family – kids and grandkids – to New York to celebrate Christmas and New Year, with a Disneyland stopover thrown in for good measure. It was such a special trip that created amazing memories for all generations.”

    Kylie loves solving problems and planning itineraries for her clients, whether that’s sorting out complex airfares or planning itineraries for independent and adventure travellers, family holidaymakers, or luxurious tours and cruises.

    “Whether it's a client’s first time to a destination, a first cruise or even a special occasion, I love guiding them through those first times and helping to make them fantastic.”

    To ensure your next journey is a fantastic one, call Kylie at Perchalla & Turner Travel Associates.

    Get to know me

    What is the most amazing experience you have created for a client?

    From inter-generational family holidays at villas in Europe that created amazing memories for all, to special honeymoons in overwater villas with curated activities throughout - I like to use my experience to help create meaningful memories, and holidays that are fun and stress-free for my clients.

    What is your number one travel tip?

    Don't pack too much! Layers are good, and leave some space in your luggage for purchases. Also, if you are considering buying something, do it - you may not get back there again.

    What are your favourite destinations and why?

    I love Italy because it combines rich history and stunning landscapes. From the charming streets of Rome to the gorgeous views along the Amalfi Coast, every corner of Italy offers something beautiful to explore. The local cuisine, from fresh regional dishes to excessive amounts of gelato, is another highlight!

    How do you go above and beyond for your clients?

    I like to think my service is very personalised, I take the time to understand my clients' preferences and tailor my approach and solutions to their specific needs. I also keep my clients informed at every stage, especially when issues arise, and offer clear, honest communication.
