Jack

Southeast Asia Specialist

After graduating with a degree in history, Jack took over a year out to combine travel and work all over Southeast Asia, Australia, and New Zealand. After returning to the UK he interspersed working in recruitment and sales and marketing, with numerous extended visits to Indochina and Thailand.

His enthusiasm for the region led him to Audley to share his passion, knowledge and experience of Southeast Asia with our clients. Since joining Audley, he's re-visited all countries, multiple times, on numerous extensive research trips — Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos, Malaysia, Malaysian Borneo, Indonesia, Thailand, Singapore, Myanmar and Hong Kong, and recently added South Korea to his portfolio.

In 2015 Jack moved to our US office Boston and has been acknowledged for the last six years running as one of the top Travel Specialists in the US as featured on the Travel & Leisure 'A list'.

Our trip was executed flawlessly and we enjoyed our Borneo trip, never missing any important venue.

Michael traveled to Borneo for 12 days in July 2025, organized by Jack

From the start of organizing a trip for us,  Jack was extremely thorough, knowledgeable and always paid attention to our input, budget and concerns. When the trip neared, we got a summary binder with all details. Even though we booked our own international flights,  Jack helped us coordinate the times. Our trip was executed flawlessly and we enjoyed our Borneo trip, never missing any important venue. From drivers to guides to lodging we got a 5-star service, all for a price that was comparable to a group tour without the dysfunctional aspect of a group. In summary,  Jack is an expert in Southeast Asia, but also someone who pays attention to every detail to assure a memorable vacation like ours. I highly recommend Jack, and Audley.

I recommend visiting - Sapa & the Tonkinese Alps, Vietnam

Nestled in the heart of the Tonkinese Alps, Sapa is a place that never fails to stir my soul. The dramatic landscapes — terraced rice fields cascading down misty mountainsides, winding trails through lush valleys, and the ever-changing skies — create a dreamlike atmosphere that feels both grounding and otherworldly. My favorite retreat here is Topas Eco-Lodge, perched high above the Muong Hoa Valley. It’s a sanctuary of peace and sustainability, where the air is crisp, the views are endless, and the connection to nature is profound. Waking up to the sunrise over the peaks, with clouds drifting below, is a moment I always carry with me.

I recommend staying at - Shinta Mani Wild, Cambodia

Deluxe

I arrived at Shinta Mani Wild, not by car or boat, but by zip-line. Soaring over the treetops, I felt the rush of wind and adrenaline as the jungle opened up below me. Landing at the reception deck, I was greeted with a cool towel and a cocktail, still buzzing from the flight. My tent overlooked a roaring river, wrapped in rainforest and luxury. Days were filled with jungle hikes, conservation adventures, and riverside picnics. But it was that zip-line arrival — bold, unforgettable — that set the tone. It wasn’t just a stay; it was a wild, cinematic entrance into a world like no other.

I'll never forget when…

I’ll never forget my cruise on Rascal Voyages through Raja Ampat. We spent days diving and snorkeling in some of the world’s most biodiverse reefs, spotting manta rays, reef sharks, and vibrant schools of fish. The boat was comfortable and well-run, with a crew deeply familiar with the region. Between water activities, we kayaked through limestone karsts, visited remote beaches, and relaxed on deck. It was a focused, adventure-driven journey through one of the most ecologically rich marine environments on Earth.
