    If you are looking for once in a life time experiences, then Natalie Watts is the perfect Travel Consultant for you. With nearly two decades in the travel industry, Natalie has explored the world in her quest for adventure.

    Natalie first fell in love with travel as a typical back-packer exploring the UK and Europe. Those two months rapidly expanded, with Natalie living for two and a half years overseas in bustling London and then on the perfect ski slopes of Whistler in Canada. She then took on the role of a camp counsellor in the forests of New Hampshire, USA.

    Natalie has since travelled extensively, visiting North, South and Central Asia; South Pacific; UK and Europe; Australia; Africa; North and South America; cruising in the Caribbean; Antarctica and the Galapagos Islands.

    Her passion is adventure travel and visiting contrasting cultures. The highlights of Natalie's travel history have been experiencing the Trans Mongolian Railway, trekking in Nepal, taking part in a Kenyan Safari, hiking the Inca trail to Machu Picchu in Peru, exploring the rainforests, beaches, volcanoes and immense biodiversity of Costa Rica, and expedition cruising in the Galapagos Islands and taking a polar plunge in Antarctica.

    Natalie's most memorable travel moments are being part of the huge crowd in attending Fidel Castro's last ever public appearance in Cuba; hiking amongst the extraordinary wildlife on the Galapagos Islands and a polar plunge in the freezing waters in Antarctica.

    Get to know me

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

    I curated an itinerary for some first-time travellers to Africa that included the very best that the continent has to offer. They trekked Mount Kilimanjaro, went on safari in Kenya, had an unforgettable encounter with gorillas, and enjoyed a breathtaking hot air balloon ride over the wildlife.

    What are your favourite destinations and why?

    Both polar regions offer a pristine beauty like no other: snow-capped mountains, crystal-clear, glass-like waters, and towering icebergs, of which you're only seeing a fraction. There's an overwhelming sense of awe knowing you’re exploring some of the most remote and special places on Earth.

    How do you go above and beyond for your clients?

    By not saying no - I do everything and anything possible to plan a fabulous holiday for all my clients that they'll remember for a long time to come.

    Where is still on your bucket list?

    I'd love to visit the "Five Stans", see the gorillas in their natural habitat in Uganda and Rwanda, and explore the remote mountain areas of Pakistan.
