Senior Travel Designer
Colleen has worked in the travel industry for 45 years. She started with Tour Operators, taught Travel & Tourism programs for 15 years, then joined the Tully team 20 years ago. Safe to say, she has been to most of the destinations she sells, having first-hand knowledge of each one. She finds it incredibly rewarding to create a client’s dream trip, and very often receives feedback about the destination that helps her with future sales.
The opportunities Colleen has had to travel the world have fine-tuned her expertise, and she never tires of learning about the never-ending luxury product that’s available from Tully’s valued partners. Her favorite travel adventures have included South Africa, Tanzania, South America, Australia and New Zealand, Southeast Asia, and Israel and Jordan.

"I like to get to know the client, which allows me to create the perfect tailor-made experience, and I feel I work better with clients who want a fully customized trip. I once arranged a rhino-darting experience in South Africa that the client still talks about to this day."
