Kate Davidson

Lovely to meet you

Born & bred here in Alexandra, I set off on my first solo overseas journey (Canada) at the age of 15. This was the beginning of my ever evolving passion for travel.


Years on, after many overseas trips & a 3 year French sojourn, I have settled back here in Alexandra with my partner and 2 boys, and am proud to be working alongside some great colleagues here at HOT Alexandra!

I have proudly worked for House of Travel for over 10 years, and within that time I have experienced a multitude of travel styles - from sailing, rail, guided touring, self driving, backpacking, solo, group, luxury & family travel - with more to add in future!


My in-depth knowledge of the destinations I have visited, along with the various styles of travel I have undertaken, work as a great combo when it comes to creating itineraries for my clients.

There are still plenty of places on the map I want to tick off, and I am extremely excited to share my passion for travel with my children, in the hopes it will open their eyes up to the big wide world, and all the greatness it has to offer!

My favourite holiday memories

  • Croatia
    Croatia Kate Davidson

    The best way to explore Croatia - onboard a yacht for 7 days with a group of friends! SWIM. EAT. SLEEP. REPEAT.

  • Fiji
    Fiji Kate Davidson

    Just a skip, hop and a jump from New Zealand - enjoy the natural beauty Fiji has to offer, along with some of the friendliest hospitality! 

    Whether it be a couples escape or a family holiday, Fiji has plenty to offer for everyone!

  • Paros
    Paros Greece Kate Davidson

    Crystal clear waters, vibrant nightlife, cobblestone streets, the freshest of the fresh local cuisine, traditional villages and breathtaking landscapes. These are just a few of the things that sum up the beautiful island of Paros!

  • Mostar
    Mostar Bosnia Kate Davidson

    A city still reasonably fresh out of a civil war, Mostar is a beautiful, yet eye opening place to visit.

    Bullet holes still riddle the exterior of many buildings, and parts of the city still remain untouched from the disaster, yet the locals are extremely friendly and you will be in awe of the landscape surrounding Mostar. 


  • Bordeaux
    Bordeaux France Kate Davidson

    I was lucky to call Bordeaux home for 3 years! 

    Known as the wine capital of the world, Bordeaux is famous for it's vineyards and chateaus, not to mention to amazing architecture, nightlife and gastronomy! 

    It's a great spot to base yourself while in France, to explore the surrounding valleys or costal towns, and is only a 2 hour train trip from Paris.
