In 1989, two young Aussies came to our Store in Wellington with an A4 page and an itinerary about their first ‘tour’ to Asia. Last night I was invited to join @intrepidtravel to celebrate their 35th birthday!

On the Dubai Food tour we were invited into the kitchen to watch the chef making Knafeh. Of course then we got to eat it - delicious 😋 #DubaiFoodTour #dubaistopover #travelmanagersaustralia #makingknafeh
#viennanow #viennalove #viennatravel #viennaaustria #travelmanagersaustralia Oh Vienna! A walking tour with a local guide is a must do for an introduction in Vienna. Home to Mozart, Beethoven and Freud, Imperial Palaces & Museums, the Spanish Riding School, Vienna Boys Choir, Sacher torte and so much more. I didn’t expect to love Vienna so much!
Three days riding e bikes along the Danube Trail from Passau to Krems. This was a ‘self guided’ itinerary supported with a comprehensive app with local eateries and landmarks highlighted along the way. Slow travel at it’s best staying in family owned Hotels, supporting the local economy. #slowtravel #cyclingholidayseurope #travelmanagersaustralia #danubetrail #austriatravel
From Gouda, home of cheese and stroopwafels to Rembrandt’s birthplace, the University town of Leiden. 45kms through the Dutch countryside, perfect day 🚴
