Paul Maclean

I have worked in the travel industry for over 28 years, starting with a regional airline in the eastern states which I did for 9 years before becoming a travel consultant for the last 19 years. I have travelled extensively throughout  the Pacific Islands  including New Zealand where I was a Kiwi Expert agent Appointed through tourism New Zealand . 

I have recently travelled to Italy , New York and Boston which I loved as destinations , being a foodie these destinations are right up there .   

Kevin Galliers

I have worked in the travel Industry for over 20 years. After a few years as a consultant in Broome I opened Naturaliste Travel in West Busselton in 1997. In 2103 he moved into a partnership with Paul and Mary and now the business is jointly owned by all three of us.
“One of my favourite destinations in SE Asia and after many trips to the area Vietnam still provides many highlights. Sa pain the North and the Mekong Delta in the south will always have a new sight, sound or activity that delights. A Bassac Boat Cruise to catch the floating markets on The Mekong Delta is fascinating or a walk through the vast rice paddies to an overnight local homestay in Sapa will never disappoint.”
“I have also enjoyed two River Cruises in Europe cruising The Rhone through France and Eastern Europe on the Danube with my wife Jenny.
My next destination of choice will be India. I can’t wait to go and explore Rajasthan in the north and learn more about this exotic destination.“

Mary Greaves

From a very young age it has been my passion to travel and experience new and exciting destinations so when I graduated from school many years ago I embarked on a career in travel.  I started my career in England and then moved to Australia.  I have worked and lived in both Broome and Busselton and I have now become a partner in Naturaliste Travel with Kevin and Paul.  I moved to Perth 2 years ago where I work from home and return to the office once a month.

I think travel is one of the most rewarding and enriching activities anyone can experience.  I have been fortunate enough to travel to many beautiful countries…. Canada, USA, England, Greece, Spain, France, Austria, Portugal and Mauritius to name a few.  I love helping clients create travel memories that last a lifetime, most of all I love hearing all about it when they return.

Michelle van der Kroft

Having a long history in the industry I have gained a wide variety of experience in wholesale, Singapore Airlines and retail travel over the last 30 years.
Spent 2 years on a working holiday in London and married a Dutchman. It has been very advantageous making regular trips to Europe to visit family in the Netherlands and also to explore other neighbouring countries. I would have to say I have been to Europe over 20 times! France and Italy are my absolute favourite and I even started a travel business specialising in France for several years.
I love cruising, particularly river cruising and have obtained my Master's Cruise Consultant certificate with the International Cruise Council which is the highest level possible for expertise in this field. I have been lucky enough to experience and sail with many cruise lines over the years all around the world.
My travels have taken me extensively around Australia, and New Zealand. Africa, Egypt, Mauritius, Maldives, Fiji, West Coast and East Coast of the USA, Caribbean, Canada and Alaska have also been highlights.
Round the world fares and complex itineraries are my fortè, I love working out the best options and believe it's what travel agents do best! You can't get our expert knowledge and experience online.
