About Donna

Born into an airline family, travel has been a huge part of my life since childhood and my passion for new adventures has never waned. It was no surprise to anyone that I chose a career in travel! I have explored all 7 continents and am already on my way around the globe again.
Using my decades of travel knowledge, I find great joy in working with clients to bring their dream holidays to life.

Previous experience

I completed my certificate in Tourism and moved into a role at Ansett Airlines.
After 10 years, I moved to Harveyworld, who then became Helloworld for a number of years, learning more about cruising & international travel.
Next stop was Bunnik Tours where I stretched my knowledge of more remote parts of the globe such as South America and Africa.
