My travel partner and myself have just returned from our trip to Switzerland ( May 2024 ) and wanted to put in writing our utmost gratitude to Katelyn Mulgrew and the team from Entire Travel Group for the professional, prompt and extensive service provided from start to finish. Kate was there with us every step of the way and answered any question or concern we had in a patient and understandable way, which left us with reassurance and confidence. Switzerland Grand Tour was amazing with picture postcard scenery at every turn. Every aspect of the booking was flawless, from the hotels, transportation and documentation it all worked seamlessly. Hotels were comfortable, central, welcoming and contained everything a traveller could need. Train travel throughout Switzerland is the only way to go, you just get on sit down and relax while enjoying the ever changing and spectacular scenery. I have, and, will be recommending Entire Travel Group to all my friends for any of their travel needs and, will definately be using them as my go to company for any future adventures. Thank you again to Kate and the team for helping us tick this item off our bucket list.
My husband and I just returned from the most amazing trip that Zoe Condon compiled for us. Everything was perfect. From first enquiry to trip complete, Zoe was always available to answer questions big or small and offer helpful knowledgeable tips. If you are looking to visit Canada do yourself a favour and ask Zoe, her knowledge is 2nd to none. I look forward to dealing with both Zoe and Entire Travel Group for future holidays.
My wife & I recently returned from a once in a lifetime experience to Canada. We were so fortunate & blessed that Zoe Condon was such a truely wonderful Travel advisor to make our journey so very special. We undertook the “Winter Views & Colourful Hues” and can only describe it as a Magical Winter Wonderland experience. Everyday was full of amazing experiences & adventures that will remain in our memory & hearts forever. As for Zoe, what an incredible asset she is for the Entire Travel Group. She is so caring, helpful, patient & always so professional in delivering “top shelf”customer service. We can never thank & praise Zoe enough……so grateful & Canada blew us away. 🇨🇦❤️ Special mention also for Zoe’s compassion & concern in helping us during a family grief period.
I recently booked a trip to the Maldives with Lisa. Apart from the trip being spectacular, it was a pleasure to deal with Lisa. She was extremely knowledgeable and helpful with suggestions. She responded very promptly to any queries even though she was overseas at the time. I can recommend her without hesitation and I am looking forward to booking a return trip to the Maldives with her next year.
Bora Bora lies in French Polynesia’s Îles Sous le Vent archipelago (or the Leeward Islands). Bora Bora is in the central South Pacific Ocean, around 165 miles northwest of Tahiti.
French and Tahitian are the main languages spoken by the island’s residents. But many people, especially resort employees, can also speak English.
There’s a bit of everything for every type of traveller on the island. If you love aquatic adventures, head to Bora Bora’s top snorkelling spot and swim with blacktip reef sharks and stingrays. Or, go on a lagoon excursion with multiple snorkelling destinations to explore. You can also hike, dive with manta rays, go kite surfing or parasailing, or stay in an overwater bungalow.
The island’s best hotels include the InterContinental Le Moana Resort, Hotel Royal Bora Bora, Conrad Bora Bora Nui, and the St. Regis Resort. Hotel Royal is perfect for visitors on a budget, while the other three hotels suit luxury Bora Bora holidays, especially if you want to stay in a lush overwater bungalow.
Bora Bora is a world-class destination known for its vivid turquoise lagoon lined by powder-soft, white-sand beaches and luxury resorts. It’s also considered an island paradise perfect for honeymooners.
Australians spending a short holiday or staying in Bora Bora for up to three months can enjoy visa-free travel. But if you plan on staying longer, authorities may ask you to show proof of the following:
You need a passport to travel to Bora Bora. Before booking your flight, ensure your passport is valid 180 days after your return date and that your passport and tickets show the same first and last name.
There are fewer travellers in Bora Bora between December to March. For this reason, most of its top resorts offer more affordable rates during this season, and you can enjoy a luxury Bora Bora holiday on a budget.
Bora Bora is farther from Australia compared to the Maldives. Hence, visiting it may be more expensive than spending a holiday in the Maldives.
If you’re flying from Sydney, Brisbane or Melbourne, you will fly into Papeete, the main island of Tahiti first, via Auckland (NZ). This can range from 8 to 11 hours depending on flight schedules. From Tahiti, a domestic flight to Bora Bora is required which will take 50 minutes. An overnight stay is required upon arrival into Tahiti and before departure to New Zealand/Australia due to the international arrival and departure times!
