Hi there,
My name is Shane. I'm the Managing Director and Chief Travel Adviser at S.W. Black Travel - a boutique travel agency I founded that specialises in luxury travel and cruises. My vision is to create unforgettable journeys for clients, combining personalised service with expert insights into the world’s most captivating destinations.
I'm a passionate traveller, having been to USA (including Hawaii), Canada, South Africa (for the 2010 FIFA World Cup), Brazil (for the 2014 FIFA World Cup), Argentina, Chile, Colombia, Uruguay, Panama, Italy, United Arab Emirates, Zimbabwe, Zambia, Indonesia (Bali), New Zealand, Fiji, New Caledonia, Vietnam, Singapore, Japan, Malaysia and several cruises.
Get in touch if you would like help designing a journey that allows you to truly experience a destination, rather than ticking attractions off a list. Savor local cuisine, engage with residents, and explore beyond tourist spots. This deeper connection creates lasting, enriching memories, making your journey more meaningful than a mere checklist.

The wife and I were looking for a short 2 week holiday in Sri Lanka, last minute we decided to add in a short trip to Mumbai for the weekend during the trip, Shane helped us make the most of our time and and made the entire process easy with plenty of options. Great communication with plenty of updates which kept our mind at ease. Highly recommend Shane to help you out for any trip.

I engaged with Shane to assist with planning a trip to Europe for 11 people. From the very onset, Shane was helpful with discussing the and planning the trip, providing useful tips and suggestions along the way.Shane booked hotel and transport for 3 cities for the group and ensured that the little details were attended to at each location.I would recommend Shane multiple times over and use his services again.Very appreciative of his work and his service is second to none.

The W @ Sentosa was friggen amazing! Extremely welcoming from the concierge, to check-in (Balloons and welcome drink on arrival- The one from office room fridge, not in the walkway), to the room. Very modern and clean!Very family and kid friendly. Kids were spoilt with their own kids cards benefits (popcorn and icecream - WOW).Shane booked us the Marvellous suite, which lived upto its name.The resort amenities and pool were GREAT! Kids loved the pool!Shane kept me in the loop of every email reminder he received about the booking etc.Booking and advice via SW Travel was superb.Thanks SW Travel, will book again!
