Throughout my 13 years in the tourism industry, I have developed a passion for group travel and responsible, sustainable tourism. I love interacting with my guests and sharing my love and knowledge of the world with them. My biggest joy on tour is watching guests do something they didn’t think they would- whether its making it to the summit on a hike, getting over their fear of heights and going on the helicopter ride, or catching a fish.

The western parks are for sure my strongest suit and my comfort zone. I have no problem doing California, the Pacific Northwest, Canadian Rockies. I'd love to learn new areas.
Fun Fact!
I'm building a tiny house out of a 1963 Grand Teton Tour Bus
Hobbies & Interests
Music and theatre play a big part in my life. I spend my off seasons entertaining people whether it's directing at a community theatre, doing stand up, or drag bingo for charity. During the times of Covid, I spent my time hiking, cooking, baking, building my tiny home, and searching for the perfect dad joke..
Testimonials
"When Brent(her husband) suggested going to Alaska in the winter time, I thought he's out of his mind. I'm 77 years old! I was nervous- we were going to go snowmobiling, riding dog sleds, snow shoeing, ice fishing. The moment I walked into our hotel David was waiting there to meet us and scooped up our bags. My mind immediately was at ease. He took such good care of us. The roads were horrendous and he just smiled and cracked a few jokes. He's a gem." -Jackie Kern Pittsburgh
"I cannot say enough good things about our tour director, David Beach. He made the trip so much more enjoyable. He was very knowledgeable, friendly, and patient to a bunch of old fogies. His games, music, movies, helped our group get to know each other, better and gave us a better understanding of the area. It also made the longer sections of the drives fun! I liked the fact that David used his knowledge of the area to tweak our schedule and maximize our time and experience, I would be more likely to book another tour with (company) if I knew David was guiding."
"David was wonderful. He went above and beyond. Nothing flustered him. We LOVED his song of the day."
"David was professional yet made you feel like a friend. He was so funny and went above and beyond."
"David and Tammy were incredible together. When the bus broke down at the trading post. He showed us a cool photo place to go take pictures, and they jumped into action. He used to be a driver, so Tammy and him dug into the engine and fixed the bus. What could have taken hours for a service truck to show up and do, they did in 20 minutes. They were professional and PREPARED."
