Travel has really changed over the last few years, so let me help you navigate this new travel era, and create a holiday to remember, with the backing of an incredible House of Travel team.

My favourite holiday memories

Europe

Whether it's a Villa in the South of France, a river cruise on the Rhine or a coach tour of Italy, Europe is the diverse destination that captures so many hearts! Food glorious food, delicious wines, art and culture in abundance, from shoestring budget to luxury of the highest standards, Europe needs to be experienced ..... more than once!
Japan

What an incredible opportunity it was to visit Japan! I travelled here in June 2019, with Wendy Wu Tours. Japan is such a beautiful country filled with the most incredible scenery, peaceful temples and shrines. Exciting cities and delicious food. The history is fascinating, and its such a diverse place, there is something for everyone here! Japan should be on everyone's bucket list!
Sri Lanka

If you're looking for a destination that is still somewhat untouched by too many tourists then Sri Lanka is the place for you. Such a diverse country! Beaches, surfing, old Dutch fortresses, safaris and tea plantations and so so much more. Absolutely worth a visit!
New York

Visiting New York at this time of year was fantastic!
Cambodia

Cruising on the Mekong meant that you get to see a lot of Cambodia in total comfort.
Europe

My passion for travel is fueled by my love for exploring new cultures, cuisines, and dining experiences. I have always had an affinity for European destinations, where I have indulged in the vibrant culinary scenes of cities such as London, Florence, Barcelona and Amsterdam.
Cruising

Recently, I have re-discovered the joys of river and ocean cruising, where I have had the opportunity to explore new destinations while enjoying the finest dining experiences onboard. The freedom to explore multiple destinations while sailing the seas in an unparalleled experience.

What my customers have to say

My wife and I were planning a month long holiday in Europe. We gave Hayley at House of Travel a brief outline of what we wanted to do. She came back to us promptly with a choice of hotels and flights that were exactly what we had wanted, she had clearly listened to our requests. Her knowledge and experience meant we stayed in great hotels in fantastic locations at reasonable prices. We had a great holiday and could not have asked for better service than Hayley gave us. We recommend Hayley and will use her service for any future travels.

I would like to commend Hayley for all the help and service she gave to mum over number of months, Hayley made doing business with the company very easy for mum who is 76 and sometimes gets a bit confused. Unfortunately mum fell very ill during the second cruise and the medics on the ship advised her to come home asap. I spoke with Hayley to make arrangements and her demeanor was exceptional, she was polite and courteous and nothing was too much trouble. Hayley had mum on a flight home where she was assisted on and off the plane and treated with care and respect, what a positive experience for mum during a very rough time. Mum is now home and getting better every day. I felt compelled to communicate Hayley's extraordinary customer service and we feel she is a great asset to your company and the wider HOT brand.

Louise
Dear Hayley, we wanted to express our gratitude for your exceptional service in organizing our recent Fiji holiday. Your patience, insightful suggestions, and swift booking process made all the difference. When unexpected circumstances arose on our way to the airport, your prompt reorganization saved the day. We truly appreciate your dedication and professionalism. We'll definitely be returning to Hayley at House of Travel - The Crossing for our future adventures.

Roger & Maria
We arrived home three weeks ago from our two month trip overseas. We spent five weeks in Switzerland; a week long Rhine River Cruise from Basel in Switzerland, ending in Amsterdam; and nine days in British Colombia, Canada. It was not an easy itinerary to put together but the travel arrangements Hayley organised for us were seamless. Hayley's input and advice was very valuable. It was a trip of a lifetime for us and we are very grateful to Hayley for her expertise.

Rod & Isabella
When it comes to travel, Hayley Mundy at House of Travel is our expert planner, organiser and activator. We have once again been privileged to have our holiday options suggested, accepted and booked by Hayley. When it came to Vietnam, Hayley organised personal English-speaking guides for our eight-night stay. Invariably, they turned out in the end to be much like friends who just wanted us to have the best possible experience. Love the work and understanding that Hayley puts into our holidays, can't ask for better!
