Tania continues to explore Canadian Rockies. Today’s highlights:
- water rafting down Athabasca river: the water was a brisk 4 degrees Celsius
- amazing wildlife sightings: elk, mouse and mama bear with 3 little cubs all in one day!
- learned about devastating fire in Jasper in 2024 and incredible stories of people coming together to help each other and rebuild this small community in the middle of the national park
- visit to stunning Maligne Lake. Located only 45 min drive from Jasper the lake is fed by 4 glaciers and you can see 3 of them from the lake. Glacial water gives the lake a beautiful azure colour. It freezes over completely over winter. And we were really lucky to experience it as it only just opened up for summer season.

Thinking of a trip to BALI?
We can help you plan a perfect trip!

Tania just came back from a 9 day trip to Bali with her family and bursting with excitement for this destination. Please see below some of her tips:

- Apply for your visa and fill out health declaration and customs form online prior to departure. This will save a lot of time on arrival. Please see below the links to the online forms:
Visa on Arrival - https://evisa.imigrasi.go.id/
Tourist Levy - https://lovebali.baliprov.go.id/
Customs Declaration - https://ecd.beacukai.go.id/
Health Declaration - https://sshp.kemkes.go.id/

- Arrange your arrival transfer in advance: Denpasar Airport can be very overwhelming on arrival and seeing a friendly face of a personal driver holding a sign with your name on it takes away any anxiety you might have.
- For your first visit I would recommend at least a 2 week trip staying at 2 or 3 different locations. Bali is such a diverse country with many experiences on offer. From beautiful beaches to bustling markets to serene rice plantations and breathtaking volcanoes. Aim to spend some time on the beach and some time in Ubud to make your trip diverse and exciting.

- Bali is not a big island, but traffic can be very busy and getting from place to place can take a long time. If you need to transfer from one location to another, why not make it an adventure and hire a driver for a day. Balinese people are so friendly and proud of their island and love showing it to tourists. We have a list of reliable drivers we can recommend.

- For shorter trips, download Gojek App. It is similar to Uber and you can also order takeaways through it, which is fantastic if you are staying in a villa.

- To avoid cash scams, use WISE card. It is easy to top up and readily accepted everywhere.

For more information and advice, please reach out to our team of experts at House of Travel Ellerslie on either 09 525 2363 or via email at [email protected]

Nicci just came back from a family trip to Phuket and shares her insights with us!

We had a wonderful family holiday in Phuket over the school holidays. Highly recommend Katathani Resort – it is huge with around 6 pools, 5 restaurants and on a good swimming beach – also less hustle and bustle than other areas of Phuket. It is the perfect location for relaxing! However not as many options to dine outside the resort in this area, but a short Tuktuk ride over the hill to Kata Beach with a lot more options – one restaurant we loved in Kata is the small family run eightfold - https://www.facebook.com/eightfo8d/.

Also, Phuket is fabulous for exploring the surrounding islands such as Phi Phi – we chose a kayaking tour of the limestone islands around Phang Nga Bay.

Our absolute highlight was the 2 day jungle safari at Elephant Hills – this is a sustainable elephant rescue staying in luxury tents in the middle of the jungle, so unique and SO worth visiting if you ever get the chance!
