Meet Tamara
Owner, Experience Developer & Tourism Consultant
Tamara is the ever-enthusiastic and passionate owner-operator of Rural Route Tour Company. Born and raised on a tobacco farm in Southwestern Ontario, she now calls Toronto home. It’s here that Tamara spent the past 20 years working in public relations and communications with many of those years focusing on luxury hospitality, as well as the promotion and development of rural tourism.
Throughout those years, an idea began to grow – the idea of creating an elevated rural experience that would bring together the thoughtfulness of luxury service and the warmth of country hospitality she grew up with. The result was Rural Route Tour Company, and its unwavering goal to surprise and delight each guest with exceptional hospitality in unexpected places.
Tamara is an avid traveller, seeker of hidden gems, lover of fine chocolate, sunny days…and tap dancing.
