About Me

South Pacific & Africa Luxury Travel Specialist

I love it when clients tell me exactly what they want from a vacation .... then, I can take care of every detail and make their dream vacations a reality!

Almost 25 years ago, I left a career in public accounting to follow my passion for travel. I’ve been creating vacation packages customized to my clients' interests ever since.

I specialize in travel to the:

South Pacific: Australia, New Zealand, Fiji, Tahiti, the Cook Islands, Bali and Hawaii;

Africa :  Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, South Africa, Botswana, Namibia and Zambia;

Exotic Islands of the Indian Ocean,:  Maldives and Seychelles.

Most clients I introduce to these areas come back to ask me to organize vacations to other parts of the world, including Europe, Asia, the Caribbean and South America.

Australia is a special place to me: I love its diversity, from the sophisticated cities to the rugged Outback. I’m one of about 120 Premier Certified Aussie Specialists in North America as certified by Tourism Australia.

I’m also an accredited Specialist for every Australian state and territory, as well as New Zealand, South Africa, and Kenya, where I was born and raised. I have travelled extensively all over Australia, New Zealand and Africa.

I enjoy organizing vacations centered on luxury travel, sports travel, honeymoons, and cruises. I also book Incentive travel and small meetings for corporate clients.

I look forward to hearing from you soon!

Great rooms with very little time
Reviewed By AussieTraveler1234 - Boston, MA | Traveled to
I didn't give Kash much warning to help me plan my trip to Australia, as I'm a horrible procrastinator. I called with an outline of a plan for places to go, and Kash was able to steer me in the right direction as far as timing and transportation. I also had and extra 4 days, and was deciding between going to the Great Barrier Reef and Tasmania, and ended up choosing Tasmania per Kash's suggestion. Not only was Tasmania one of the best places I've ever visited, there ended up being a typhoon in GBR during the same time period! Great suggestion. The hotel rooms were mostly very good, although we did miss out a bit due to the aforementioned late booking. The bonus penguin tour was really great! The only thing that could have been better were a few more suggestions of good activities to do along the way.
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

The very best trip of our lives so far.
Reviewed By Vijay and Radha - Lexington | Traveled to South Africa ~ Africa
We had an excellent experience with Kash for our trip to Australia & NZ 2 years ago. This trip included South Africa, Zambia, Zimbabwe and Botswana and he did the whole planning for us. He promptly gave us a detailed itinerary at the very outset & was flexible when we asked for a few tiny tweaks to suit our tastes. His rates are most reasonable and we felt that he was just a phone call/e-mail away to answer our questions. The text of our e-mail to him says everything. "Let us thank you for a wonderful holiday, everything worked out excellently. There were no problems of any kind. This was indeed one of the best vacations we had. Your suggestions about the Chobe trip and others were excellent. South African airlines was great. They treated us very well. We enjoyed every tour and the hotels, our favorites were the safaris. If we were to do again, we wouldn't change a thing. We knew we couldn't go wrong with you, that is why we got back to you. "
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

Fantastic Four Weeks!
Reviewed By Riverman - Western Massachusetts | Traveled to
We used Kash to plan a four week adventure to New Zealand and Australia. It was a very customized trip based on our input and our plan to meet up with our daughter who was doing a semester abroad. We worked with Kash remotely and everything went off without a hitch. Every B&B, every tour, and every tour guide were exceptional. This trip was loaded with lifetime memories. We would highly recommend Kash and use him again.
