Rod Stege

Travel Business Owner

Traveling was always in my blood!! I started my early career in the Royal Navy, specialising as a Navy Navigation and Diver.

I’ve been so fortunate to of pretty much travelled the world within the Navy role before then going into banking sector which I was in for 30 years. I’ve recently retired from the private banking sector so I know the luxury travel sector well and have looked after many clients over the years.

My claim to fame was that I worked for the Royal Family in my early Navy days working on HMS Edinburgh and the Royal Yacht.

I am now helping Clare with the family business as its grown so much and I’m focusing on the marketing and brand awareness. I’m also chief tea maker!

Countries visited:

Worldwide in the Navy, I don't think there is a country I’ve not been to and I feel very fortunate to have had this unique experience.

Favourite destination:

Italy, I love the culture, style and food of this amazing country.

Travel tip:

Visas, You will need to check in advance whether you need a visa which is a document issued by the destination country granting you entry. Showing up to your flight without the necessary visa may lead to you being rejected, especially if you cannot apply for one on arrival.
