Welcome to House of Travel Albany

In January 2008, Tim Malone and Angela Nunn purchased a small independent travel agency in Albany. Their intention was always to form a partnership with House of Travel and by March 2008 the deal was done and House of Travel Albany was born!

Our team of six experts have travelled extensively and with over 100 years combined experience, travel is not just a job for us, it is our passion. We are committed to providing you with excellent, friendly and personal service for all your travel needs, and look forward to being a part of planning your next amazing adventure.

Meet the team

The best holiday experience is a blend of organised activity along with a sense of discovery. Bespoke holidays are my speciality. Exploring off the beaten track destinations where you feel like a local yet welcomed as a guest creates treasured memories.
