Who Am I

I’m Rose Febo, the proud partner of TravelManagers Australia and founder of the boutique luxury agency, Country Club Travel. Based in Brisbane, Australia, I bring over 20 years of experience, connecting savvy travellers with personally curated, life-enriching adventures. Whether you’re passionate about food, culture, or exploration, I’m here to tailor your perfect escape.

What My Clients Are Saying

For decades, I’ve orchestrated seamless holidays and bucket-list travels. Here’s part of what valued clients Catherine and John Stynes shared:
“…Wow what a trip. With Rose’s organisational skills, it really was a trip of a lifetime. Everything went like clockwork & I must say I would be hesitant to travel overseas without first consulting Rose for her expert organisational skills. This trip was secondary to the trip to Hawaii that she also organised for us 2 years prior, hence why we had such confidence in Rose’s ability to pull this off again!!!!!…

The different fascists of our trip was so easy from flights to train trip, to cruising couldn’t have gone smoother, thanks to Rose.
While away, she communicated with our daughter, simply checking in that everything was running smoothly and to see if there was anything we needed. Rose doesn’t just plan a trip and send people on their way, she ensures that every detail from the beginning to the final touch down home (and everything in between) happens as it should. No question or email or phone call was ever too much for her.

We will never forget this trip & the exceptional job that Rose did in her organisation of our trip of a life- time & the special touches she included to make our trip so memorable.” Catherine and John Stynes

Destinations I'm Passionate About

When it comes to my own travel habits, I am a bit of a gypsy and a nomad – I prefer to visit a new country or city, rather than go back to the same place twice.  But if I do, I will stay at a different hotel or resort, and try different sightseeing tours, to learn and experience something new.

When I’m travelling, I’m constantly on the move, experiencing new countries, cities, places, cultures, people and sights.  Having personally travelled to over 50 countries to date, I enjoy researching and exploring different places as a tourist myself, trying out different types of holidays, accommodation and modes of transport, so I can then share those experiences, and my first-hand product knowledge, with you!

To date, I’ve covered much of Africa, Asia, Europe, the Middle East, the Americas and the South Pacific, but my bucket list isn’t getting any smaller!  Each year, my goal is to visit at least one new country.  My favourite travel quote by St Augustine says it all – “the world is a book, and those who do not travel, read only a page”.

There have been many personal highlights along the way – such as visiting Machu Picchu and its ‘aura’, for that once-in-a-lifetime exhilarating experience and amazing views; searching for the Big 5 on African game drives; seeing the amazing Big Island in Hawaii after the Volcano erupted from a bird’s eye view in a helicopter, and feeling the adrenaline rush and exhilaration, when skiing the Gran Sasso, Abruzzo, Italy.

Having said that, I have a passion for cruising holidays too. I love the fact that I can unpack just the once for my entire holiday, wake up every other day in a different port, without having to catch another flight or a transfer, and not have to lift a finger – everything is done and provided for.  I’m waited on, hand and foot – bliss!  Cruises are great value-for-money too, including all of your accommodation, transportation, meals, onboard activities and entertainment.  The more luxurious the better1

As they say, “if you cruise once, you’ll cruise again and again”.  Like me, you’ll get hooked too.!
