Debby – Reservations Manager
Having been made redundant after 10 years in retail travel I was fortunate enough to be offered a place at Beachcomber Tours. I have now worked here for 19 years and I am very proud and honoured to be part of the Beachcomber team, nothing gives me more pleasure than helping someone fulfil their dreams by staying at one of our resorts in Mauritius and the Seychelles.
Chris - Assistant Reservations Manager
Following my graduation in Tourism & Business Management I spent a year travelling around Australia and Thailand before joining a sports tour operator for three years putting together tailor made tours for clubs and schools as well as organising sporting festivals.
I joined the Beachcomber Tours African product team in July 2002, attracted to the opportunity to tailor make clients holidays across Africa and often combining with one of the Beachcomber resorts in the Indian Ocean. This really is the ultimate job as a tour operator as it has provided the chance to regularly visit Southern Africa, East Africa, Mauritius and the Seychelles all in the name of keeping product knowledge to the optimum - happy days!
Jo – Assistant Reservations Manager
I have always worked in the travel industry, 5 years as a Travel Agent and 9 years at Beachcomber. I have always had a passion for travelling and love the Islands we sell. Which is why I love my job as this gives me the opportunity to travel and share my experiences with others. I had my honeymoon at Dinarobin and Shandrani so they always will have a special place in my heart.
Mary - Senior Reservations & Wedding Co-ordinator
I've worked in travel for 14 years starting out as a travel agent, and then moving into Tour Operations. I joined Beachcomber Reservations 7 years ago and look after all our wedding clients.
Working in travel has given me wonderful opportunities to see the world and experience some fantastic holidays from bear watching in the beautiful Canadian Rockies, to being charged by an elephant in the South African wilderness, flying over the Grand Canyon and of course experiencing some of the best beaches in Mauritius and the Seychelles.
Gill – Reservations Consultant
Having only ever worked in travel from retail to group tours, overseas representation and for the last 17 years with the luxury Beachcomber products, Beachcomber Tours has given me a passion for travel which I take advantage of at the drop of a hat! Amongst my favorite destinations is Mauritius as it ticks all the boxes, from top quality hotels, spa facilities and plenty of sports including golf which is a must and personal favourite.

I started in travel 1979, I have now been with Beachcomber over 4 years. Outside work I rescue unwanted pet birds and find homes any other unwanted animals and my dream one day is to have my own animal and bird sanctuary.

Denise - Reservations Administration
I joined Beachcomber in September 2007 after spending 10 years working for one of the large multiple travel agencies. My main role is an administration position within the reservations department but I sometimes help out the reservations team when we're really busy. I really enjoy working for Beachcomber and have been fortunate enough to have had 2 visits each to both Mauritius and Seychelles since I started last year. I love travelling and to date the Seychelles is the most beautiful destination I have visited. I consider myself very lucky to be part of the Beachcomber Company and look forward to many years working here at the Guildford office.
