I have been driving motor coaches for various groups across the country for 20 years. This is where I first became familiar with the tour director role, and I thought it would be a perfect job for me because it aligns with my passion of travel and working with people. I attended TripSchool Bootcamp in October of 2022, destination training in Washington, DC in February of 2023, and destination training in New York City in February of 2024. I lead student groups and adult groups in various locations around the East Coast, Midwest, and Alaska. I’m always looking to explore new locations and expand my knowledge.

Testimonials
"Tonya was an incredible shepherd to us in what I can only imagine was an incredibly challenging situation. She remained steadfast, even-headed, and above all, friendly and fun. Her knowledge of the areas, expertise in things to do, and ability to extract joy from any situation was an honest highlight of our trip. I am confident in saying that Tonya alone made this a journey I will never forget, and I will forever be grateful that we were blessed to have her as our tour guide." Alaska 2024
"Tonya was everyone's mother. She was fantastic! She even got our group surprise tickets to the USHMM, as she knew we were interested and just finish our Holocaust unit at school." Washington, DC 2024
"Tonya is excellent at engaging with the kids. She is very friendly and personable. I could tell it was important to her to give our students the best tour ever. She was consistently checking in with me to see how things were going and if there's anything she needed to do differently to improve their experience." Washington, DC/New York City 2024
