Alyssa Kane

Lovely to meet you

After achieving my New Zealand Level 5 & 6 Diplomas in Travel and Tourism, I’m excited to have joined the team at House of Travel Rotorua back in December 2022 - not even Covid could derail my dreams of becoming a travel consultant.  

My years of studying and my personal experience of travelling to Australia on family holidays has fuelled my passion for creating unforgettable holidays. I spend my days designing holidays within New Zealand, Australia, the South Pacific and Asia, and I absolutely love arranging cruise holidays. Working with you to create your perfect getaway is what I enjoy the most, so bring me your dream holiday, and we can build it together! Leave me to focus on the details, so that you can relax and have your best adventure yet!

My favourite holiday memories

  • Bali
    Bali Alyssa Kane
    Menjangan Island (Deer Island) has to be one of my favorite travel experiences. Just a one of a kind unique experience! Getting to walk ashore after some of the best snorkeling I've ever done, to find roaming deer which are friendly enough to come and kiss your hand! Nothing like New Zealand!!!
  • Sydney
    Sydney Alyssa Kane

    Sydney never gets old! I love sitting at Circular Quay down by the Opera House people watching and watching the boats come and go with a cold drink in hand!

  • Melbourne

    I enjoyed a short stay in Melbourne filled with visiting rooftop bars with friends, shopping, Victoria Markets, tram rides and exploring the city with hidden art in Laneways.

  • Queenstown
    Queenstown Alyssa Kane

    The moment I went to Queenstown for my very first time, I loved it and still do!

    So much to do from Bush walks, Snowy Mountains, Ice Bars, Jet Boating, Cruising, Wine Tours and just taking in the picturesque scenery! 


  • Milford Sound
    Milford Sound Alyssa Kane

    Milford Sound is a breathing taking natural attraction and experience in any weather and at any time of the year! Cruising the Sound was magical in the rainy weather! 

  • Gold Coast
    Gold Coast Alyssa Kane

    Travelling to the Gold Coast was a fun filled week. It made me feel at home right by the beach! The Hard Rock Cafe, Dracula's Cabaret, Broad Beach, Surfers Paradise Night Markets, Jet Boating, Tanning on the beach … I loved it all!!

  • Brisbane
    Brisbane Alyssa Kane

    With family in Brisbane, a quick trip across the ditch is always a good time! One of my family adventures took us on the ferry to Stradbroke Island. This is where we drove almost every road, stopping at the beaches and look outs whilst getting up close to Kangaroos and sighting Koalas.

  • Far North
    Far North Alyssa Kane

    I’ve always said “I would love to Travel the World at a young age.. but I love travelling my own backyard at the same time!" A trip from the Bay of Plenty to the very far North was a good roadie!!!! Spent days taking in the amazing scenery of the Bay of Islands and Cape Reinga. It was so amazing seeing where the Tasman Sea and Pacific Ocean meet!

  • Alyssa was very kind helped us to book a cruise as first timers and explained everything well. She was very helpful and she couldnt do enough for us. She explained i would need a visa for one stop on a british passport and helped with insurance. We were impressed with her politeness and understanding as we are pretty nieve on the travel side of things and Alyssa put our mind at ease. 100% helpful. We will go to her again for advice and bookings. Well done Alyssa and house of travel

My travel stories

Postcard from Bali

After visiting Bali, I saw everything we know it for.. Beach Bars, Coloured Bean Bags & Umbrellas on the beach, Bintang, Rice Terraces, Monkey Forest’s and so much more! However, while visiting Bali, I got to experience all the hidden beauty that Bali has to show!
