Tom Brown

Head of Operations 

 

 

I have been working in travel for about 10 years and I have been extremely lucky to have set foot on all continents including Antarctica. I am a sports nut and if I am not playing it then I am watching it. My first passion was rugby until a shoulder injury made me call it quits. I captained my school cricket team and was lucky enough to go on tour to Kenya. I also travelled to Canada on a rugby tour with our sister company Gulliver’s. My sporting feats are now limited to golf and tennis in the little free time I have with a young family.

 

At the age of 25, I went travelling to South America and ended up setting up camp in Buenos Aires for 9 years working as a tour leader and then managing an operations office for an adventure travel company. I now look after the operations team for both Edwin Doran and Gulliver’s in our Hampton Office and get a real buzz from hearing some of the great touring stories.
