Small group adventures. Good company. Details taken care of.

You’d love to travel, but organising everything feels like hard work. Or perhaps you’re ready to go but don’t have someone to go with.

That’s where I come in.

I’m Marie Kimber, a group travel specialist with Hastwell Travel & Cruise. I design and personally host small-group journeys to places I’m excited to share—with local experiences, time to explore, and room for a few laughs along the way.

Come on your own, with your partner or bring a friend. I travel alongside you, take care of the details and help everyone feel welcome from the start.

Already have your own group? Whether it’s a circle of girlfriends or a club with a shared passion, I can design a tour especially for you.

Take a look at my upcoming trips, or let’s chat about getting your group away.

Regards, Marie (pronounced like Calamari)

    Besides the gift of new friendships…. 

    Full appreciation of the ease and stressfree feeling with a competent travel consultant ( Marie) who confidently organised our small group holiday covering all tastes and desires.

    We managed to experience a wide range of Norfolk Island’s lifestyle , foods and people .

    I would definitely go on another trip with Marie at the helm.

    Her attention to detail and suggestions made our trip special

    Her attention to detail, and the little inclusions and suggestions of cafes or restaurants she adds, made the trip so special.

    I highly recommend Marie to help you organise your next holiday. She is very passionate about travel and cares about making sure her clients have the best holiday possible.
