Chimu Adventures is expanding with two new hires joining the team of Polar and South American specialists with relationships manager Chriss Perry and destination specialist Emily Ryan.
Chriss Perry has over three decades of experience in the travel industry, including managing the groups department at Peregrine Adventures and business development with Envoyage (formally Travel Partners) home-based network.
Perry is based in Melbourne. As part of her role, she looks forward to strengthening Chimu’s relationships with their valued trade partners across Victoria.
Emily Ryan is based in Chimu’s Sydney office. She joins the company after several years with Flight Centre, following an Advanced Diploma of Tourism & Hospitality. She’s passionate about travel, particularly South America and Brazil, and looks forward to helping Chimu travellers and trade partners plan unforgettable holidays.

“Travel gives us a way to see the world in a new light; understand people we’ve never met and sparks a passion for life itself,” Ryan said. “I hope to show clients that same passion though their time in Latin America and the Polar Regions.”
With the 2026 Great Chimu Sale and Great Chimu Incentive underway, it’s an ideal time for the team to grow, catering to increased demand for Polar expedition cruising and South American travel from both the Australian and North American market.
