'I thoroughly enjoyed my Encounter Travel holiday on Virgin Voyages maiden cruise from Melbourne to Tasmania. That a group of strangers could meet up and all get on and enjoy themselves was amazing. Our tour guide Megan made sure everyone was included. I highly recommend Encounter Travel and would definitely use them again.'
