Due to the recent, sad passing of our proprietor, Penny, we have decided to solely work from our Wadhurst office and have therefore closed our Rye office after 16 fantastic years in the town. We are still catering for all our Rye customer's travel needs from Wadhurst (new and existing!) or will be happy to travel to Rye for meetings at a location of your choice, so please do get in touch. Southern Cross Travel was established in 1984 by Penny and Trevor Bones, who have a long involvement with travel to, and within Australia, New Zealand and the Far East.

Booked our honeymoon with this lovely family business. SA, Zimbabwe, Botswana and Mozambique. A carefully crafted trip, very accommodating to budgets and they suggested some great amendments. For a trip beyond an easyjet flight, I would definitely use them again. Thank you for an unforgettable trip!

We have used Southern Cross Travel many times. For trips to Kenya, Zanzibar, Morocco and St Lucia. They are exceptionally helpful, very knowledgeable about all areas of the destinations and always go that extra mile to accommodate little additional requests such as car seats, water sport bookings and specific room choices to name but a few. The service is FREE which is insanely amazing in this day and age.
They cut out all the hassle of trawling through holiday and flight websites and get you the best deals and work out the best itineraries for however near or far you're travelling. I would highly recommend them to anyone.
