Kemily Simmons – Travel Industry Professional

My journey in the travel industry began in 1989 when I started as a travel consultant for an independent travel firm.

I later moved on to NRMA Travel, where I became Assistant Manager in the Travel Call Centre, followed by a role as Assistant Manager for NRMA Drive Travel.

Over the years, I’ve been fortunate to explore many incredible destinations.

I’ve driven along the West Coast of America and through Europe, traveled across the Pacific Islands, Asia, and Australia, and developed a love for cruising.

Japan, in particular, remains a favourite but there are still so many places left to see!

In 2006, during a sand dunes safari in Dubai, I met Trudy from Time Fly’s Travel.

We stayed in touch over the years, and in 2023, she called with an opportunity to join her team. It was an offer I couldn’t pass up and so, here I am, continuing to share my passion for travel and helping others create unforgettable journeys/memories.
