For Courtney Ledger, luxury travel is an art form, one that blends insight, intuition and impeccable attention to detail. With 11 years in the travel industry and shortlisted for the 2023 Women in Travel Awards in the Retail category, Courtney is known for crafting journeys that are as seamless as they are extraordinary, designed with precision and delivered with polish.
Having explored several destinations herself, from Cambodia, Singapore, Thailand, Austria, and Switzerland, to the United Kingdom and South Africa, Courtney brings extensive knowledge and a global perspective to every itinerary she curates. Her favourite travel memory reflects her appreciation for transformative, immersive moments. Thinking back to a safari experience among Africa’s legendary Big Five, she shares: “The lion was mesmerising in its grace, yet there was an undeniable rush in realising we were witnessing the king of the jungle in its natural habitat.” It’s this reverence for authentic experiences that defines Courtney’s approach to luxury travel.
A touring specialist at heart, Courtney excels in creating bespoke small-group journeys, alongside refined island and beach escapes, and elegant river cruises. Her clients value her ability to match them with the right experience, always balancing exclusivity, cultural depth and uncompromised comfort. She believes true luxury lies in thoughtful planning and insider access, whether that’s securing upgraded suites or making every transition feel effortless. But it’s also important to stay practical. “Pack a power board so that you can charge all of your devices at once”, she says, offering this tip for her clients to ensure they’re always prepared during their travels.
Courtney’s knowledge of the world’s leading hotels is equally discerning, and she understands what elevates a stay from memorable to exceptional. Speaking of one of her favourite luxury hotels, she reveals: “Perfectly positioned in the heart of Singapore, Marina Bay Sands is renowned for its iconic rooftop pool, with breathtaking views unfolding from every vantage point.” Still on her own horizon is a Canada and Alaska trip incorporating the Inside Passage and Rocky Mountaineer railway – a testament to her enduring sense of curiosity and wonder.

Get to know me
What is the most amazing experience you have created for a client?
Most recently I had repeat clients wanting to cruise Alaska's Inside Passage - their first international cruise. The cruise line, airline, itinerary and hotels exceeded their expectations, and they still talk about this holiday being the trip of a lifetime.
How do you go above and beyond for your clients?
I will always take the time to truly understand each client’s preferences and travel style. By building strong relationships and anticipating their needs, I create personalised journeys where every detail feels thoughtfully considered.
What are your favourite destinations to visit and why?
South Africa has something to offer for every traveller: animals, scenery, culture, history, food and wine. Every day is a new adventure waiting to happen.
Why do you love travel? Tell us what it means to you?
I love that travel encourages us to step outside our comfort zones and experience something new. It creates meaningful moments and shared memories with the people we travel with, turning experiences into stories that last well beyond the journey.
