 Specializes in: Music & Educational Tours, Community Groups, Festival London  

Since graduating from the Hospitality and Tourism Management Program, I have worked in various aspects of the tourism industry including hotels, restaurants, attractions and destination marketing organizations. I was pleased to join Ellison Travel & Tours in 2005 to plan customized tours for clients across North America.

My travel experience includes most of Ontario including Toronto, Ottawa, Stratford and Niagara Falls.  Some of my favourite North American cities include Quebec City, Vancouver, Whistler, Calgary, Banff, Las Vegas, New York City, Boston, Washington DC, Baltimore, Branson, St. Louis and Milwaukee.  Internationally my travels have taken me to France, England, Holland, Scotland and Greece.

In my experience, each new destination has left me with many life long memories, lessons and friends. Travelling as a group also provides opportunities for growth and learning. When you are planning your group tour, whatever your special interests, please call me and I will be happy to research and organize all possibilities for learning and fun to suit your needs.

Tour in Washington, DC & Area
“We just finished 2 days and have had a great time. The aquarium was fun and well timed. It poured rain all the way to our concert at the harbour front. I called and assumed it was going to be cancelled. We arrived to 20 degrees and blue sky. The venue was excellent and we had a large crowd who stayed for the whole performance. The ghost tour was the best one I have ever had.”
Guy Cox, Miss Edgar & Miss Cramps School, Ont
