As a first time client to HOT Ellerslie, I was very impressed with the workmanship & service from this outlet, especially with Cassandra Lyes. Her follow-up during & after our trip was amazing & attention to detail was on point! We are back to book future overseas family trips with her again! Thank you so much for getting my family to Raro & back home safely.

Siew
Max was on the ball and ready to change when we asked for alterations. Good service. First up overall cost was very fair and competitive. Max - very on to it

Ian
Max was fantastically professional, he first listened to what we wanted and tried to understand detail before working on actually finding flights, accommodation etc. It left us feeling listened to and confident in his ability to tailor our holiday to our needs. Max is great to talk to and really listened and was super professional. I feel like he tries his best to get the best value for us

Shane
We feel confident in Max as our travel agent. As well as being very friendly, he was knowledgeable about our travel destination, and communicated with us in a timely manner regarding our many queries. Max Aversa provided little hints and tips for our travel through Japan, including how to forward luggage, downloading a translation app, and other helpful things that we greatly appreciate.

Charisse
I enquired about a cruise. Max was knowledgeable and confident (without being pushy). He was able to answer all my questions and followed up efficiently by email with additional details. Max provided options and made requested changes quickly and easily. I felt confident with the information Max provided.

Our travel stories

Postcard from Australia

Perched atop Ayers Rock, surrounded by the mysteries of Woomera Live Bombing and Ammunition Lake, I encountered the elusive Thorny Devil. The image captured was not altered - the reflection in my sunglasses attests to the authenticity of the moment. The haunting presence of the Fraser Island Ship Wreck, The Maheno, added to the enigmatic allure of the landscape.
