    Siobhan’s love for travel started at just 3 weeks of age when she took her very first flight and since then, she says she hasn't stopped travelling, journeying to more than 30 countries and living and working in Ireland, Switzerland and France.

    Some of her most memorable experiences have included a 10 hour overnight climb up Mt Fuji in Japan, arriving at the peak for a perfect sunrise adventure, to an extended trip in Peru where she worked as a volunteer in an orphanage, plus many trips back and forth to the USA. 

    Siobhan knows first-hand from her own travels that adding an element of adventure to her client’s itineraries is often the difference between a good holiday and a great one, seeking out those hidden gems that only locals know about. 

    “I always put myself in my client's shoes, researching absolutely every little detail to map out unique itineraries. The pleasure I get in knowing how special my clients will feel when they experience those little extras is well worth the effort!” 

    Her best travel memory was the night she spent in an ice hotel in Norway, which also included sledding with a team of huskies! It’s a moment that I’ll never forget!” 

    “I have always had a fascination with other cultures, and I love to dig into their music, customs, and food. And if anyone asks me for my favourite place that I discovered while living in Europe, I’ll always suggest a visit to Annecy if you are travelling through France or Switzerland. The lakeside town is so picture perfect, it's like stepping foot onto a film set.” 

    Siobhan considers herself to be an absolute expert in Australia, Europe and North America where she’s spent a lot of time exploring and when she lists the places she’s travelled, it’s like a veritable dictionary including Belgium, Brunei, Cambodia, Canada, Czech Republic, Denmark, France, Germany, Hungary, Indonesia, Italy, Ireland, Japan, Malaysia, Mexico, Morocco, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Peru, Puerto Rico, Scotland, Singapore, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Thailand, Turkey, United Kingdom and the United States of America.

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

    When it's a clients first time anywhere, that is an amazing experience for me. I will always ensure I show the clients the most authentic version of the place they are travelling to, including the accommodation they stay in, the local restaurants I recommend and unique sites to visit.

    What is your number one travel tip?

    Always step out of the tourist areas to uncover the true essence of a destination and experience its authentic culture. It's the best!

    What are your favourite destinations and why?

    France - i'm a huge Francophile love everything about that beautiful country! I also love Peru for how other worldly it feels - it's really something special.

    How do you go above and beyond for your clients?

    I put my feet in their shoes. I imaging every step of their journey and plan accordingly to make the experience as smooth and enjoyable as possible.
