# sandraskeltontravel.com ## Posts - [Travel industry changes](https://sandraskeltontravel.com/travel-industry-changes/): With over 35 years of experience booking travel – 17 of those running my own retail store – it’s fair to say it’s been quite the ride watching the industry evolve. The backbone of traditional travel booking is done through a GDS (Global Distribution System). It allows us to access hundreds of airlines, car hire companies, and hotels worldwide – all from a single platform with just a few entries. The first GDS I ever used was Tias, followed by Galileo, Sabre, and now Amadeus. Back then, airlines, hotels, and car rental companies were not accessible online – because, of course, […] - [Mystical Morocco](https://sandraskeltontravel.com/mystical-morocco/): After my first visit to Morocco, I knew I wanted to return. Morocco has so much to offer — mountains, beaches, hilltop villages, deserts, ancient cities and ruins, magnificent palaces, and so much more. Every region has its own unique charm, culture, and landscape, making it a truly fascinating destination to explore. Located in North Africa, Morocco is easily accessible from Australia with just one stopover. If you are already travelling through the UK or Europe, it is only a short flight — or even a ferry ride from Spain. Arabic and Berber are the official languages, although French and English […] - [Bountiful Bali](https://sandraskeltontravel.com/bountiful-bali/): Having not visited Bali since 1997 — despite selling it countless times while living in Perth, Western Australia — I jumped at the chance to return for an updated look in 2019. Here are some of my thoughts and tips from the trip. Transfers Grab and Gojek (similar to Uber) are very common throughout Bali and are an affordable way to get around. However, be aware that these services are not permitted in certain areas, particularly around some hotels and tourist zones. There are plenty of taxis available, and they are generally very inexpensive. That said, arriving at the airport can […] - [Alaska Expedition Cruising](https://sandraskeltontravel.com/alaska-expedition-cruising/): After several trips to Alaska, I’ve found my passion truly lies in expedition cruising. It’s the ultimate way to connect with breathtaking wildlife, dramatic landscapes, and what feels like a far more exclusive perspective of Alaska’s wilderness. My first adventure was in June 2011 aboard Safari Quest, operated by UnCruise Adventures — a charming small expedition yacht carrying just 22 guests. Over seven nights sailing from Juneau to Juneau, we were fully immersed in nature’s wonders, from magnificent glaciers to an incredible variety of wildlife encounters. One of the most remarkable aspects of travelling on small expedition vessels like this is […] - [Skiing in Aspen](https://sandraskeltontravel.com/skiing-in-aspen/): Having visited Aspen many times, it still never loses its magic. The feeling you get from this beautiful old silver mining town in the Colorado Rocky Mountains is unforgettable. Aspen is so much more than one of the world’s premier ski resorts — it is a true destination in every sense of the word. Originally inhabited by the Ute Indians, Aspen later flourished as a silver mining town in the late 1800s. Its rich history is still beautifully preserved through the town’s architecture, where historic buildings blend seamlessly with modern luxury. With strict building height limits of no more than four […] - [Baja Mexico](https://sandraskeltontravel.com/baja-mexico/): I had the incredible opportunity to sail the stunning Sea of Cortez and Baja California coastline aboard the Scenic Eclipse, travelling from Loreto in Mexico to San Diego in California. Cradled between the arid Baja California Peninsula and mainland Mexico, the region might first appear to be nothing more than rugged, windswept coastline. However, once you venture beneath the surface, it reveals something entirely different — a thriving marine ecosystem of extraordinary richness. The Sea of Cortez (also known as the Gulf of California) is home to an incredible abundance of wildlife, including dolphins, sea turtles, blue whales, orcas, and countless […] ## Pages - [Disclaimer](https://sandraskeltontravel.com/disclaimer/) - [Opulent Hotels](https://sandraskeltontravel.com/opulent-hotel-services/) - [Luxury Cruises](https://sandraskeltontravel.com/luxury-cruising-services/) - [Stylish Adventures](https://sandraskeltontravel.com/stylish-adventure-services/) - [Benefits](https://sandraskeltontravel.com/benefits/) - [Privacy Policy](https://sandraskeltontravel.com/privacy-policy/) - [Thank you](https://sandraskeltontravel.com/thank-you/) - [Faq](https://sandraskeltontravel.com/faq/) - [Projects](https://sandraskeltontravel.com/projects/) - [My Blog](https://sandraskeltontravel.com/blog/) - [Contact](https://sandraskeltontravel.com/contact/) - [Services](https://sandraskeltontravel.com/services/) - [About us](https://sandraskeltontravel.com/about-us/) - [Home](https://sandraskeltontravel.com/) ## Optional - [Agent (MCP protocol)](websites-agents.hostinger.com/sandraskeltontravel.com/mcp) [comment]: # (Generated by Hostinger Tools Plugin)
