My name is Magdalena and my lifelong passion for Australia Fuels Unforgettable Vacations.


As one of the travel consultants at Platinum Journeys Travel, I have dedicated the last 5 years to crafting unforgettable vacations for our clients. My lifelong fascination with Australia, fueled by childhood dreams of exploring its natural wonders and vibrant culture, has transformed into deep, firsthand expertise that I'm thrilled to share.


I am a certified Aussie Specialist, having undergone extensive training and certification from the Australian tourism board. This allows me to offer truly specialized knowledge and insight across Australia's diverse regions, from the rugged Outback to the stunning Great Barrier Reef. I've personally immersed myself in Aboriginal culture, learning traditional art forms and storytelling to better understand and share this integral part of the Australian experience.


Whether it's snorkeling amidst the technicolor marine life of the Great Barrier Reef, watching the sun paint the sandstone of Uluru in brilliant hues, or conquering the iconic Sydney Harbour Bridge, I've cultivated a repertoire of unique, VIP-access experiences that bring the true spirit of Australia to life. My clients consistently rave about the warm welcome they receive from the local Aussies, who treat them like "mates" and create lasting memories.


As your travel partner, I utilize my comprehensive expertise to craft completely personalized Australia itineraries that cater to your every interest - be it adrenaline-fueled adventures, immersive cultural encounters, or pure relaxation amidst the country's breathtaking natural beauty. Australia is a true bucket list destination, and I'm honored to help make your travel dreams a reality.
