Hi my name is Kim Ridley. I started with Jetset Tamworth in July 06 in the capacity of Corporate Travel Manager co-ordinating the Carlson Wagonlit Government Corporate Business.  I’ve now returned to my first love which is helping people discover the world of adventure and leisure travel. 

My career in travel started back in 1989 with Singapore Airlines and since then I’ve worked in many roles within the retail travel and hotel environment. My love for adventure has landed me in some fascinating places including Machu Picchu, trekking in the Kulu and Zanskar Valleys in India, the Annapurna and Everest Trails in Nepal, working in Heli Skiing Lodges in Northern British Columbia and exploring Guatemala and Bolivia. Last year I was fortunate enough to venture to Madikwe Game Reserve in South Africa before lapping up a stay at the beautiful Sun City Resort and this year I'm off to Spain and Italy.

I’ve enjoyed the years of training and knowledge that I love to consistently build on and look forward to assisting you with your next trip so email me soon!
