Destination Experts

Michelle Barker

Managing Director & travel agent

I fell in love with travel and the industry more than 17 years ago. While I’m at the helm of Jayes Travel, which means I’ve been able to create a travel planning experience that is completely unique to what others offer, my true passion is creating the holidays our clients have always dreamed of.

We remove the barriers for clients to make travel an easy and unforgettable experience, even before you step foot on an airplane, boat, train or bus. The holidays we create are as unique as our clients and they’re designed to fulfill their requirements around time, destinations, favourite cuisines, cultural experiences, accommodation style, budget and unique needs. From the moment you walk in the door, the Jayes Travel team will look after every little detail for your dream holiday, removing the stress and ensuring you can relax throughout the whole experience.
