Founder & Managing Director
Jake Chiem
I started my adventure in the travel industry two decades ago. Over the years my experience in this business ranges from retail and corporate travel booking to wholesale and tour operator. I managed multiple successful travel agencies picking up numerous awards over the years including 2 consecutive years for Best Travel Advisor and 5 awards for Best Travel Manager of the year and Best National sales manager. Was written up in the Travel Weekly magazine as the 6th most successful travel agent of 2006, more recently an award for best new starter business 2016 and Travel Partners entrepreneurial award 2020.
I have extensively traveled the globe ticking off over 50 countries and I truely believes that travel gives the best life experiences and I wants everyone to see the world the way I do.
Growing up in Australia, I made sure I don’t leave my beautiful home country out when I go traveling. Having traveled from one side of the country to the other, I am passionate about showing off Australia. I created Australia & New Zealand Holidays to showcase the amazing cities, towns, attraction and landscape this region has to offer.
