Our Story

Established in the early 1990s by Founder and Owner Kirk Demeter, our story began with a personal journey through Australasia. Inspired by the places, people and adventures he encountered across New Zealand and Australia, Kirk returned home to the USA and started Down Under Answers – the first brand in the Travel Answers family.

Now encompassing Down Under Answers, Africa Answers, Asia Answers, Travel2 and Islands in the Sun, the Travel Answers team has built a reputation for our attention to detail, unbeatable value and destination specialists who have lived and immersed themselves in the countries we offer.  

Our destination knowledge is unbeatable, and we are passionate about creating extraordinary vacations that are highly bespoke and customized. Whether you're seeking adventure in the rugged landscapes of New Zealand, wanting to witness the great migration in Africa or simply relax on the pristine beaches of Tahiti, we make travel easy, every step of the way. 

Our philosophy revolves around putting people first. We prioritize the needs and preferences of our customers, ensuring that every aspect of the journey is planned and delivered with precision. From the moment the vacation planning journey begins, we are committed to providing unforgettable, market-leading travel experiences.
