"It was very easy to work with Michelle. After an initial in person meeting to discuss our interests she provided a first draft of a detailed itinerary. From there we made changes jointly with Michelle over the phone and by email. She was patient, very accommodating and extremely knowledgeable, making the whole process enjoyable and stress free. When the final itinerary was confirmed we met in person where she walked us through the entire seven week trip. The end result was definitely our trip of a lifetime to New Zealand and Australia. We were taken care of from start to finish, it was completely worry free with no detail left undone. I would highly recommend her for your trip of a lifetime."

"Michelle was a joy to work with, always available to answer our many questions and offer reassurance when necessary (ex: the Australian fires). Every arrangement that she handled, from the numerous flights to the many different accommodations and tours, came and went without a single hitch or surprise. When it comes to Australia and New Zealand, she knows her product as well as the locals. She has a good feel for what makes a good fit and is of good value, always placing us in central, accessible locations in each town or city. The small group tours that she found for us were a special treat; we were never more than 6-10 persons which makes a huge difference in comfort."

"Michelle booked a fantastic trip for 9 ppl to Thailand over Christmas and New Years. Time in Koh Samui and Bangkok including flights – great resorts and hotels (including Banyan Tree in Bangkok) – all transfers and private tours. We appreciated Michelle’s attention to detail and quick responses – the trip was amazing – and we would highly recommend Michelle".

"WOW – that is all I can say about the trip that Michelle prepared for us. We travelled to Australia in February with our daughter who was studying at the University of South Australia. We stayed in Adelaide for a week and then onto our “trip of a lifetime” to the French Polynesia. All we wanted was to stay in a hut over the water but Michelle took it one step further and organized several day trips which made the experience so much more. Thinking of this trip still puts a smile our faces.  If you are looking for that “trip of a lifetime” Michelle is the travel agent you will want to contact. She was instrumental in helping our daughter get home during COVID.  Michelle stayed in touch with us until she was home safely.

"Michelle is an amazing travel agent! I have used her for all of my 5 trips to Australia and domestic trips as well. She knows her business inside and out. Always professional and very accommodating. She listens to what I want from my trip and then puts together an agenda that surpasses my expectations. She encouraged me to do a few things that I would not have tried and they have been the most rewarding experiences of my travels. Best example was the Sydney Bridge Climb. Spectacular! I was in Australia when Covid broke out and she went above and beyond the get me home! I HIGHLY recommend her for all your travel needs!"

"In January 2020 after the brilliant and careful planning by Michelle, we ventured to Kenya and Uganda for what turned out to be a fantastic experience.  Our trip was seamless, we were treated with respect and enjoyed highly professional Guides at each and every location.  This is what we have come to expect when Michelle orchestrates our adventures, regardless of destination.  She spends the time to assess our needs, goals, interests and travel style - and then adapts the trip accordingly.  She makes it a very high priority to gain as much knowledge of where she will be sending us as possible, before presenting the details for us to make our final decisions."

"Michelle Streicher at South Pacific Journeys: Trustworthy, Talented, Creative, Connected and Caring. When the pandemic hit during our trip of a lifetime to New Zealand, Michelle worked tirelessly to find us flights and help us leave New Zealand as it quickly closed borders. Michelle was able to reorganize existing reservations without any cost to us while others were scrambling to get on high priced alternate flights. Being in the travel business is less about booking things and more about knowing how to by-pass phone lines, wait times, cancelled flights and turn what could have been a nightmare into an adventure. We cannot say enough about her caring commitment to clients. We highly recommend her and would never go on another trip without her guidance."

"I attended a info night that Michelle hosted and l was hooked on her professionalism and her knowledge of the South Pacific. I made an appointment and l went over what l was looking to see in Australia regarding flights, wildlife and hotels and of course the Great Barrier Reef. She put a plan that totally met all my wishes and was laid in the booklet for day to day, telephone numbers what we were doing each day and this not only include tours but the hotels. Gave suggestions on where to eat and what we could see on our own time. I would use her services again as l know that l will receive nothing but the best. I would recommend Michelle travel services to anyone 100 %."

"It was a chance conversation with some fellow travellers on a short trip that we heard of Michelle and her professionalism and knowledge of travel in general and Australia in particular. When we met with her, there was no question that the recommendation was correct and she was who we wanted to assist us on a dream trip to Australia. With her advice, we added New Zealand, French Polynesia before ending in Hawaii from where we flew home. The entire itinerary was both thorough and made for us. In the planning, Michelle made great suggestions and, when we followed through with them, we realized just how much knowledge and research she brings to her work.

When South Africa came to the top of our bucket list, it was again to Michelle that we turned. We certainly recommend Michelle and South Pacific Journeys."

"Michelle asked the right questions and listened to the answers. She is knowledgeable about travel and about designing adventures that suit travellers' goals. Travel to Australasia is a significant commitment in dollars and time and Michelle made both into investments rather than expenditures."
