AMANDA BOOKER

AUSTRALIA & SOUTH PACIFIC

DESTINATION SPECIALIST

I grew up in Brisbane, Australia, and have worked in the travel industry in Australia and North America for over 20 years. I have been lucky enough to travel extensively throughout the South Pacific and I truly have a love and passion for all of the destinations, Downunder and elsewhere. I love my job and have formed many great relationships with travel agents all over North America. It is great to be able to share all of my personal knowledge of the South Pacific with agents and their clients. I have worked for Goway since 2005 and now live in Toronto with my family. I love being outdoors, and I am slowly starting to appreciate the Canadian winters.

My favourite places

  • Sunshine Coast

    Australia & the South Pacific

    I grew up visiting the Sunshine Coast on our family vacations. It's a beautiful coastline stretching from Caloundra all the way up to Noosa, with each beach being unique. The Sunshine Coast hinterland region is home to some quaint small towns. It's definitely a great place to meet some local Australians.

  • Bora Bora

    Australia & the South Pacific

    Bora Bora really does take your breath away. Wherever you look, it's like a picture postcard. The resorts are spectacular, the people are friendly, the food is great, and there is nothing like jumping in the lagoon from your own overwater bungalow. It is a very special place.

  • Queenstown

    Australia & the South Pacific

    There is so much to see and do in Queenstown! Not only is it a beautiful area of lakes and mountains, there really is an activity for EVERYONE! From jet boating to wine tours, to fishing, to bungy jumping to 4WD excursions, and more. It is definitely my favourite place in New Zealand.

Did you know?

  • The Great Barrier Reef stretches over 2000km along the coast of Australia and it can be seen from outer space.
  • Australia has over 60 separate wine regions! And I am slowly exploring (and drinking) my way through them.
  • More than 80% of Australians live within 100km of the coast. Aussies really do love the beach lifestyle.
