Welcome to House of Travel Devonport

Devonport is a unique community and at House of Travel we've discovered that the travel needs of the Devonport community are also quite unique.

That’s why we’ve increasingly promoted travel ideas that are just a little bit ‘off-the-beaten-track’ and more adventurous than the norm.

Our success is also based on the pride we take in listening to our customers. Really listening! It allows us to enhance the ideas you bring to us, to use the wide ranging travel experience of our specialist team to add the things that our customers sometimes ‘don't know that they don't know’ and to be there for them, just a phone call or email away right throughout their travels.

If you want to make your next overseas holiday just the best that it can possibly be we invite you to contact us to discuss what you have in mind.

Travel is my passion and love making dreams come true. With 25 years of working in the travel industry I have been very lucky to have travelled extensively through Europe, Asia, Pacific Islands, USA, Australia, New Zealand and a little bit of Africa. I love sharing my experiences with people. I have always believed the glass is half full and to travel now while you can. Who knows what tomorrow will bring and you will have no regrets. Please feel free to pop in and say hello.

I believe travel is not only the way to learn more about the world, but a way to learn more about ourselves. Travel feeds the mind and the soul, as well as the tummy if you know where to go! One thing I love more than travel, is helping people! I've spent most of my young life traveling, experiencing other worlds, creating memories with my family that I will remember forever. I want to help you create your own fantastic memories.

What our customers have to say

Highly recommend! Tori was so nice and helpful. She took the time to answer all our questions and talk us through the different options. We left happy and well consulted!

ENGINE ISSUES CAUSE 2 YEAR DELAYS FOR AIR NEW ZEALAND

In July this year, engine manufacturer Pratt and Whitney announced that 700 planes across the globe need to be inspected. Air New Zealand has 17 Airbus A320 and A321 NEO's which fly to Australia, Pacific Islands and other domestic routes need to be inspected. Chief executive Greg Foran said most customers are still likely to fly on the same day however, some international flights will move a day either side of their original booking date. A refund will be available to the 150,000 affected passengers if their changed service doesn't suit there itineraries. This will see the pause to direct flights from Auckland to Hobart and Seoul from April 2024.

EXCITING INNOVATIONS TO THE WAY WE TRAVEL

With the world reopening and travel is becoming more attractive than ever. Innovations are set in place to make the travelling experience so much better. Imagine not having to talk to anyone, show your passport to anyone, just a streamlined experience. Facial recognition systems, AI integration, robotic logistics, all to create a smooth and streamlined experience. We are also seeing hints of potential supersonic travel being re-introduced since Concorde's failure in the early 2000s. These exciting innovations are a matter of when, rather than if. Changi International Airport is taking these innovations and aiming to implement them in early 2024. Can we see the same for Auckland Airport? Definitely.

QANTAS ALLOWS "NEIGHBOUR FREE" UPGRADE FROM NEW ZEALAND

The Australian airline is now trialing a new feature which allows passengers flying on trans-Tasman flights alongside flights to the US and Singapore to purchase an empty seat next to them. The trial period is undisclosed, however, following an evaluation of the trial, more international routes may see this option become available. The way it works: Passenger's on eligible flights will receive a notification 2 days before departure offering this upgrade to "reserve" the seat next to them. As it's not guaranteed, if the seat is sold after "reserving," the passenger is refunded.
SINGAPORE'S NEWLY RENOVATED CYCLE PATH

Planning a trip to Singapore? The newly renovated cycle path is a must-see. It's called the Singapore-Kranji railway and now you can enjoy a bike ride through Singapore on one of the countries most historic features which debuted 120 years ago.
