The person behind the plans

If your style were a hotel, what would it be, and what would the concierge say about you?

If my travel style were a hotel, it would be The Rees Hotel in Queenstown, New Zealand. It’s beautifully positioned with those sweeping lake and mountain views, prioritises comfort without the fuss, and gets the little things right — like a proper magnifying mirror in the bathroom and actual glass shower screens (no clingy curtains here). It’s welcoming, quietly stylish, and lets the setting do the showing off while you settle in and relax.

The concierge would probably say, “She’s the kind of guest who notices the little things, prefers local cafés over tourist hotspots, and knows exactly when to swap heels for comfy sneakers. She’s organised but easygoing, loves a hotel with personality, and always leaves with a list of recommendations for the next guest.” 

Why do travellers say working with SJT makes all the difference?

I think our clients choose us because they know they won’t get a cookie cutter approach to booking travel. Every itinerary we prepare is different, tailored to individual preferences, personality and budget.

Our clients often tell us how stress-free and seamless their trips feel, because we’ve anticipated the little things that make a big difference: the best room location, transfers timed perfectly and verified local recommendations. It’s about having an advocate before, during, and after your trip — someone who cares about your experience as much as you do.

We also have access to exclusive rates, upgrades, and insider perks that can be the icing on the cake for a great travel experience. 

What can a travel advisor do that the internet can't?

After working alongside SJT advisors for the last 4 years, I see that the greatest benefit of using a travel advisor is peace of mind. When something unexpected happens — a cancelled flight, a missed connection, or a last-minute change — our clients aren’t left dealing with a call centre or chatbot. They have an SJT advisor, a personal travel expert, in their corner.

What's your top tip for responsible travel?

When I travel, I love to support conservation efforts, not-for-profits or social enterprises related to the environments and communities I have visited. If something has made an impact on me I get a kick out of contributing to their efforts to conserve that place or culture.

What’s one thing you never travel without?

Ear plugs, always ear plugs!

Perfect for sleeping on planes and trains or combating my husband’s snoring! No one wants to be tired on holidays. 

Kind words from happy travellers

Thanks again - the app is just brilliant. Love the inclusion of the trip planner for Tokyo subway.

The app was extremely helpful. Absolutely fantastic. It was very well organised by you guys. 

The app was wonderful so easy. Having the Singapore arrival card in the app made our life so much easier - 10 stars.

Where I’ve wandered

Romantic gondola rides in Venice, swimming with turtles in Hawaii, photographing wild flowers in Ireland, snorkelling the Great Barrier Reef and walking the beautiful city of Hobart. I love collecting these memories and look forward to where these adventures will take me next.

Let the adventure begin
