Matt Carter - Managing Director

Having spent 20 years living abroad and 15 years working for travel companies in 4 different countries, Matt’s travel planning expertise and destination knowledge is of the highest quality. His raison d'être is making the travel planning process as incredible and memorable as your next trip with Journeys Retold.

Whether it’s a luxury anniversary escape through Europe, a multi-gen family trip over to Fiji, or quality time with mates in Asia, Matt approaches each journey with an obsessive attention to detail and an unmatchable dose of curiosity. His philosophy is fairly simple: no two travellers are the same, so no 2 two itineraries should be either.

Over the years, Matt has built strong relationships with trusted hoteliers, airlines, and destination experts. That means access to perks, upgrades, and experiences that most travellers never even know exist. But more than that, it means knowing when to bend the rules (think big families), beat the queues, and book the room with the view. Because your trip matters more to him than anyone else.

Outside the world of travel planning, Matt is a Dad, a football coach, an inspired golfer, a coffee drinker, and a firm believer in the idea that an awesome trip can sit with you for life. Journeys Retold Travel is his way of helping people see the world to make memories, and connect with each other - one story-worthy experience at a time (best over a hot fresh brew☕ or a round of golf🏌️).
