WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING

You can say Stel has been a part of every big step in mine and my husband’s relationship. Stel has been there since the beginning when two young lovers wanted to travel Europe and Egypt back in 2016. He even helped us work out a payment plan to make this happen. He must have known it would work out because he was there to help us plan our first overseas family holiday to Fiji in 2017. So how could we not ask Stel to work his magic again in 2019 when we started our family holiday from Canberra to Uluru by car? He was on the phone and email keeping up with our trip to help us find the best accommodation and deals to stay at. This brings us to the latest and greatest adventure in 2022 where Stel help me arrange a surprise holiday in Darwin to tick something of our bucket list for my husband after a great achievement. Stel has been a part of our lives for 7 years and we will continue to ask Stel to be apart our adventures for many more

THANK YOU STEL

Kaylene and Royce Kerrison

We have been very happy with Stel at MPS travel (now Entice Travel) who has helped us with numerous travel plans over many years. This covered all aspects of our trips including booking flights, travel insurance ,securing tour bookings and booking accommodation which really suited our family’s needs and was ideally located. We would highly recommend Entice Travel.

Paul & Deanne McQueen

The service offered by Stel is superior to other agencies that we have used in the past, in that he provides undivided attention, listens carefully to our requirements, and activates them as soon as practicable. His personable manner is a huge plus as well – any issues we have are dealt with politely, calmly [even when I am frantic such as a recent travel request for our stranded London-based daughter] and successfully. I have used Entice Travel for several years now and keep coming back. It also helps that he makes himself available via email at any time during an emergency – even when he is officially on leave. Just wonderful.

When it comes to holidays and getting from one place to another I have always put my trust in Entice Travel. I’ve found them to be a great organisation, putting the customer first, the moment you walk through the door. The personalised service you get makes you feel part of a special family and your worries and frustrations evaporate when they look after your bookings from flights, cruises, accommodation and hire cars. Stel Missiskos is your friendly travel agent expert with years of experience. He knows how to get the best results to suit your budget and travel plans. He knows all the inside travel industry shortcuts and takes personal pride in making sure your travel experience is extra special.

I can’t recommend Entice Travel highly enough.

As one of the founding Directors of Entice Travel (formerly MPS Travel & Tours), I am excited about the new direction we are heading.

I am also a Director of National Corporate Golf, organising amazing Corporate Golf Challenges throughout the Eastern Coast of Australia (soon to be Australia wide). Entice Travel is part of that journey, showcasing how amazing our corporate travel really is.

Karen Bradley

As part business owner of Entice, I love travel. Waving a fond farewell to MPS Travel & Tours, and with the launch of Entice Travel finally achieved, I am looking forward you, our valued clients, embarking on travel to new, luxurious and exciting destinations. There’s a whole world of ideas on our website and it is designed to inspire you, with a few handy tips along the way. With a degree in Communications/Journalism, I aim to write from an honest, interesting and inspiring perspective so that you hopefully come away with fresh ideas and knowledge about the destinations you desire.

Amy Hewson

CEO

I am Amy Hewson. I have been working for the business since inception and I’m a proud mum of two ever growing boys. My role can be very busy and eventful so when we take family holidays it is important we feel safe and secure, but also relaxed and entertained. My husband and I love travelling with our two teenage boys and we really like to pack the days with activities so we can enjoy the nights, either as a family or as a couple.
