When it comes to looking at the best beach holidays, luscious experiences or trips off the beaten path, then you’re in the right place and you’ll find that Michael is well equipped to help you with this.

With over 12 years in the travel industry, having joined in 2013, and a passionate expert in holidays through South East Asia, you can trust him to find you something truly unique! Plus, he’s fluent in both English and Japanese. 

With many memories made in travel over the years, Michael always finds himself  drawn back to Japan! “Travelling to Japan for a holiday when I was 17 was when I really fell in love with the country! I proceeded to study the language and I go  back every single year!” Michael also has a deep love for Hawai’i. As a lover of the beach, shopping and restaurants he finds the vibe to be fantastic and with everything in walking distance, it’s a literal paradise! 

Michael specialises in Asia, Australia, Central America and the South Pacific when it comes to travel holidays and back this up with his New Zealand Certificate in Travel! Having personally travelled to each destination as well, he uses his  personal experience to guide your holiday and help make your experience into something truly exceptional! He recalls that one of his most memorable personal experiences was “when I travelled to Bintan Island. It’s just the most beautiful  place with the best beaches, amazing food and amazing spots to just relax and enjoy everything happening around you!” 

A specialist in everything from Business Travel to Family Holidays, Michael is well versed in how to tailor truly exceptional holiday and travel experiences for different situations! One of his favourite travel experiences that he put together was an incredible honeymoon for a couple who were after something adventurous! He recalls, “After recommending that they head to Vietnam, I put together a full tour where they could have the ‘off the beaten path’ experiences that they were after! I then sent them to Phu Quoc island to finish off the trip so that they could relax at the beautiful beaches.”

Get to know me

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

I’ve had the privilege of creating many incredible experiences for my clients, but one that stands out was planning a babymoon for a couple I’ve worked with for many years. Knowing what they both loved, I curated a bespoke itinerary that perfectly balanced relaxation, adventure, and indulgence.

What are your favourite destinations and why?

Japan holds a special place in my heart, having lived there myself. Its blend of ancient traditions and cutting-edge modernity never fails to inspire me. From the serene temples of Kyoto to the bustling streets of Tokyo, Japan offers an endless array of experiences.

How do you go above and beyond for your clients?

I take pride in truly understanding my clients' unique travel needs, ensuring every detail is thoughtfully planned and executed. For example, having a fresh bucket of ice ready for a client's evening bubbles. It’s these small, personalised touches that elevate a 5-star experience into 5-star luxury service.

Where is still on your bucket list?

The historical landmarks and natural beauty of South Korea, the Gothic architecture and sunny beaches of Spain, the charming villages and rolling green hills of Ireland, and of course, a Zodiac boat trip in Antarctica.
