Australia Trip Planning Services

I can’t thank you enough for the work you did for us. You really called everything right, especially the timing. Your estimates of how much time it would take to see what we wanted to see and to travel how we wanted to travel (air and rental car) were right on. We had a tight schedule even at six weeks. It would have been impossible without your advice. We got the see the real Australia when we drove the South Coast Region, we saw no tourists; just locals. We visited local pubs, shops, and restaurants and had a great, leisurely time. As a result, I have referred you to two more of my friends/associates.

Thanks to Michela’s help we could organise a tailor-made trip to Australia, by saving money and reducing to the minimum any waste of time. Michela is a real traveller who knows very well the needs-and-wants of people who travel. From her we have learnt a lot, we have treasured her tips and advice so that we could replicate them in other trips. She is professional and a warm and pleasant person. Our experience is more than positive. We can highly recommend her to anyone who wants to make a unique trip in Australia.

We live in South Africa, but never having been to Australia before, the scale of the planning required to create a successful trip was simply overwhelming. But then – I came across Michela and her amazing website, Rocky Travel. I downloaded her book and devoured it. Then Michela sent me the most informative email with advice, links, tips, etc., and little by little, our trip came together. We got back home a week ago after spending the most mind-blowing three weeks in absolutely awesome Australia. And it was absolutely perfect. We spent time with each of our sons in their hometowns, hired three campervans and made a very short 9-day Road Trip from Perth through Freemantle, Margaret River, and down to Walpole. Everywhere we went, we were absolutely blown away by the beauty, friendliness, safety—just the spirit with which we were welcomed. It all started with my finding Michela – we are ALL SO grateful for that. Thank you, Michela – the gift that you gave to us by providing the nudges and ideas and recommendations that determined our trip is priceless. The memories, photos and deep joy that we will ALL carry with us FOREVER can NEVER be lost. You were incredible!

My wife and I just returned from our 6 week holiday in Australia.  I was a great trip to a beautiful country.  We were able to visit Cairns, Brisbane, Noosa, Sydney, Adelaide, and Alice Springs and Uluru during our trip. We started to put the trip together on our own, but quickly realised that was a daunting task given all the places we wanted to visit and the limited amount of time we had.  We were very fortunate to discover Rocky Travel who made planning our trip a breeze. Michela was wonderful to work with.  She followed-up with us many times during the planning process and always made us feel she was very interested in us getting the most from our holiday. She has been to all the places we wanted to visit so she was able to give us good information on the number of days we needed at each spot and tips for transportation and hotels in the area.  We could not have done this trip without Michela’s help. We highly recommend Rocky Travel if you are planning a trip Down Under!

Thank you for all your tips, guidance and support. I was very nervous to travel to Australia on my own . When I began planning I quickly became overwhelmed with all my internet research. When I found Rocky’s Travel website online I instantly knew I had found what I was looking for. I recommend buying her book and using her itinerary services to help you plan. With her help I saved time, money, and found unique places off the beaten track. She is right about everything spot on! Thank you Thank you Thank you!!!

Me, my husband and my 14years old son decided to treat ourselves to a trip we had wanted to do for years. I usually like to organize and choose everything by myself. But I had no time. Furthermore, I was not prepared for the beautiful destinations we could visit. I asked Michela of Rocky Travel. It was not a travel agency that organized the trip, but a very proactive person who knows Australia well. She loves it and suggests fascinating places to visit, how to get there and how to save money.  She was accommodating on many things, also on those which may seem trivial, but in the end, saved us lots of energy to solve them. From the best phone cards to the travel insurance company, how to quickly book hotels, flights and car hire packing lists.  I must say that the contact with Michela went beyond the usual professional relationship since she was always available to answer our questions with the utmost care and close attention. I recommend Michela to everyone who wants this experience and to visit beautiful Australia.

We had been planning our first trip to Australia for two years. I normally create my trip itinerary for all our travels. However, as I investigated creating a trip for Australia I realised that given the size of the country and the fact we had 5 weeks allocated to the trip I needed help. I did not want just to rush, flying all over the country. We landed on a trip to drive the east coast of Australia in a campervan. I found Michela’s website and her trip planning services. One of Michela’s specialties is solo female travel over 50. We figured if her travel planning was good for single women, it would be good for us. Another bonus was that Michela had been to all the areas we wanted to go, and much of her travel involved camping, so we felt she knew what we were looking for. Michela spent an hour with us via video call to better understand what we wanted and sent us an itinerary which was perfect. She was always available for questions or clarifications. We definitely felt there were locations, sights and experiences we would not have found without her help and the Rocky Travel trip planning services. Our trip was fantastic, and we hope to use Michela’s services again to travel to Tasmania and Western Australia.
