Let Me Keep Your Travel Ducks In A Row
I am Taryn Donald (like the duck...) and I am a Travel Counsellor based in Randburg. Because I have a great support team and infrastructure behind me, I can assist clients no matter where they're located.
I am also a proud mom to a wonderful daughter and a lively group of four furry companions - both dogs and cats. Before becoming a Travel Counsellor in 2026, I gained experience organizing events and exhibitions during school holidays and in my first role after finishing school. Like many others, I'm drawn to the magic of a stunning tropical sunset - and I've been lucky enough to experience quite a few across different destinations.
My love for travel began in 2009, and over the past 17 years, I've worked in a range of roles across both sales and support. Assisting people expand their horizons through travel has always been at the heart of what I do, so you can feel confident that you're in capable hands.
What I love most about being a Travel Counsellor is the ability to tailor my service to suit each client's unique needs.
Let me keep your travel ducks in a row!

Why use a Travel Counsellor
Let's plan your dream trip together
Tailor-made for you
Your holiday isn’t just a trip away. It’s a longed-for escape, time to reconnect with loved ones, or a dream adventure you never thought possible. That’s why I take the time to truly get to know you and understand your hopes and expectations, then use my experience, connections and passion for the destination to create a trip that makes those dreams a reality.
Personalised service. Always
When you plan a holiday with me, you’ll be given my personal mobile number from the very first call. I’ll listen to your thoughts and ideas like I would a friend and arrange accommodation, activities, and flights that are all personalised to you. And I’ll share my personal tips and recommendations, so you can experience the true beauty of each destination.
Stress-free travel, and more time for what matters most
I believe your time away should be stress-free, easy, and seamless from start to finish. So, I take care of all the details for you - from ATOL protection, insurance, and flexible payments to access to the myTC app, which keeps everything in one place.
Support when it matters most
If the unexpected happens, you can rest easy, knowing that I’ll handle any last-minute changes, flight cancellations, or disruptions before you even pick up the phone. So you always feel happy, carefree, and ready to make the most of every moment.
