Indian Ocean Holidays
Kirsty
I have worked in travel all my adult life; it’s my greatest passion! My areas of expertise and great passions are Kenya, Tanzania and South Africa, but I’ve plenty of knowledge of the Indian Ocean and Middle East. I’ve climbed Mount Kilimanjaro, and have incredibly fond memories of my own personal holidays in the Maldives. The service from the staff in resort is second to none, and the villas just take luxury accommodation to another level.

I have been creating personalised bespoke holidays to the Maldives, Seychelles, Mauritius as well as the Caribbean and the Middle East for the past 10 years as a Specialist. I have been lucky enough to have visited these incredible countries for work and my own holidays a number of times to learn them first hand.
Another country I know very well is Sri Lanka, I’ve studied the country as well as its geography, hotels and the experiences you can enjoy there. One of my most memorable experiences was standing at the top of Sigiriya Rock and it’s spellbinding. There is so much to do in this beautiful country, I highly recommend the cookery course and then eating the delicious curry with your hands like the locals! I would also suggest a Safari during the months of the Gathering, I will never forget the view of over 100 Elephants coming together in their herds!
