Hello, and thank you for taking the time to visit my webpage.
My name is Ryan & I would love to help you plan & book your next travel experience.
I spent 7 years as a successful premium travel consultant for an award-winning retail agency, specialising in long-haul luxury travel in the UK and now running my own business since arriving in Australia 5 years ago. My customer service focused approach has led to many satisfied leisure and corporate clients over the years.
I've lived in Perth for 5 years with my wife and 2 children - where we appreciate everyday how lucky we are to live here in WA
I have been incredibly lucky to experience some amazing places all around the world - from volunteering with Orang-u-tans in Borneo, honeymooning in an overwater villa in the Maldives, travelling through the spectacular Rockies in Canada to water & land based safari in Botswana to name a few.
There is nothing more exciting than heading off on holiday to somewhere you've never been before. Combined with my own travel experience I have a huge amount of industry and destination knowledge to not only arrange the best holiday for you but to also give you the best value for your money.
As an independent travel agent, I have no bias to any airline, hotel or tour company - my focus is solely on offering the best option for your holiday and providing STRESS FREE travel no matter where you’re travelling.
Travel has changed and will continue to change over the next 12-18 months, but importantly I'm here from planning to arriving back home. Advising and keeping you up to date with all the up to date information and if the worst happens I'm here to process and get the refunds back to you as quickly as possible.
While your on away on holiday with me I'm here for you 24 hours a day / 7 days a week.
No call centre, no out of office - you get me and the incredible Travel Counsellors support team here if needed.
Whether it is a business trip to Singapore, a weekend break to Bali or a family holiday to Thailand (my kids favourite holiday destination), I’ll be delighted to assist and make your holiday experience totally personalised to you.
My aim is to always exceed my clients’ expectations ensuring the only thing they have to worry about is where to travel to next.
Thank you and I look forward to chatting to you soon.
Whatever your holiday needs I'm here to help you, so simply give me a call or send me an email with your contact details on and I can get things started for you:-
I absolutely love travel! Take a look through my posts - you might find holiday inspiration where you least expect it...

We have used Ryan previously when he was UK based for a major bespoke travel company. We have since used his services even though he is now Australia based for arranging flights and holidays, including cruises,all over the world. He is very thorough and nothing is too much trouble! He is very polite and phones when he says he will (always to suit UK times). Wouldn’t use anybody else!! Keep up the great work Ryan.

I honestly couldn't recommend Ryan any more highly - not only was he friendly, efficient and professional but he also helped make a dream become reality. He organised for me to meet up with my sponsor child in Africa - this was no easy feat and Ryan went above and beyond to make it happen. He was always available for my many questions (even on weekends and out of hours) and nothing seemed too difficult. He also was able to recommend travel insurance and ensured we were kept up to date with any airline changes. I never do reviews but for this I simply had to. Personally I would like to say a massive thank you and give my whole hearted recommendation to Ryan.

We would both like to say how very happy we are with the excellent service you have provided us during the last year with our holiday plans. We would like to say a special thank you also for the support and assistance you extended to us on our recent cruise holiday in Europe when we had to cut our cruise short due to illness. You provided so much help to us with re scheduling flights and booking hotels in Italy for us, which alleviated much stress for us at a difficult time. Thank you for being there when needed and always making yourself available, as well as the help you provided to us with our travel insurance claim. You responded immediately to any questions we had and we had many! We wish you every success and we will see you after our upcoming trip. Ann & John Bursell Perth, WA.

Ryan has been amazing I'm so glad I found him. What a wonderful experience. I had a vision of the honeymoon I wanted and he's gone above and beyond to make it something that we will remember forever. No stress on my end he's done absolutely everything. Can't wait to go to Mexico!! Thanks so much Ryan

Ryan has arranged many long haul holidays for us over several years whilst working in in the UK. He has organised trips to Australia, Bali, Dubai, Mauritius, New Zealand and Singapore with multi stopovers depending on our destination We leave all our travel arrangements in his very capable hands and he arranges the chauffeur drive, seating preferences on board and room selection at the hotel for us It is totally stress free as all we have to do is to make sure our passports have six months left on them and he even reminds us about that !

I just wanted to write a thank you to you for your super efficiency and outstanding service whilst booking/arranging flights and holiday itineraries for us. We could not have asked for a higher level of service - and you always gave the impression that nothing was too much trouble. So often these days, when people make promises to get back to you in answer to a query, arrangements are not then followed through or only a few of the points are addressed. This was never the case with the service we received from you and when I emailed with several queries and alterations to our China itinerary, each and every point had been answered in your reply. So, many, many thanks for such wonderful, personal customer service. Wishing you and your family a hugely successful emigration to, and integration in, Perth, Jenny and Alan Curtis

Ryan has been our travel consultant here in the UK for almost 10 years. During that time at least one of our family has been living and working in Australia and he has been responsible for all of the travel arrangements for the whole family over that period. We have been delighted with the extremely efficient and friendly service he has given us. He has always gone out of his way to ensure we have the best possible journeys and excellent accommodation. His help has been invaluable to us and we would have no hesitation in recommending him. John & Diane Miller
