About Erica Smithers

Welcome, I'm Erica Smithers, an independent Travel Agent affiliated with the esteemed Global Travel Network. With over 13 years of dedicated experience, I've cultivated a profound passion for exploring the world.

Upon completing my Social Work Degree in 2003, I had the urge to travel the world.  For two transformative years, I backpacked across our incredible globe, an experience that profoundly shaped my life and sparked an enduring passion for travel that has never died. Upon my return, I eagerly pursued any opportunity in the travel industry that would quench my curiosity for the unknown while accommodating my desire for further adventures. This marked the beginning of my journey in the Travel World. Since 2006, I've been immersed in this vibrant industry.

Travel isn't just a job—it's a part of who I am. My love of travel has allowed me to explore many destinations and won numerous accolades along my journey. My expertise lies in curating tailored travel experiences. Whether it's for leisure or business, my extensive global knowledge enables me to craft individual itinerary's and routes, considering preferences, and providing personal experiences. Given how things are in the world right now, is why I have decided to start my own Travel Business. I aim to keep costs low and be adaptable to provide you with even better service and value.

I believe in being dependable and motivated in how I work. Building strong relationships with my loyal clients is something I take pride in. I always aim to exceed expectations by doing more than expected. Even when things get uncertain due to nature or flight schedules, I make sure your travel experience is smooth and stress-free by taking care of every little detail.
