Meet Evelyn
Countries I've visited: United Kingdom, Europe (including France, Germany and Budapest), USA, Thailand, Tahiti, New Zealand, Africa, Vietnam, Cambodia, Mauritius and Argentina.
My favourite destination: Africa. The incredible landscapes, wildlife and rich cultures made it a truly unforgettable experience and one that has stayed with me long after returning home.
My experience in the travel industry: With over 20 years’ experience in the travel industry, travel has always been more than just a job for me. My love of travel and helping others create amazing memories is what inspired me to start Kingscote Travel in 2007.
Over the years, my own travel experiences have given me valuable insight into destinations around the world, allowing me to offer practical advice and personalised recommendations to my clients. I believe travel is about more than just getting from one place to another, it’s about creating meaningful experiences, discovering new perspectives and making memories that last a lifetime.
My best travel tip: Always pack a portable travel charger, staying connected can be essential while travelling.
