Donna Duggan, Maasai Wanderings Ltd, www.maasaiwanderings.com

Donna always had an adventurous spirit travelling on the road since 1995 – from nannying in London to backpacking and hiking through Europe & Africa. Tanzania caught her heart and she also met her husband there in 2004. Together they built a tour operation and responsible tourism community projects (Maasai Wanderings), along with a ‘glamping’ and lodge accommodation portfolio called Nasikia Camps.  Her husband was tragically taken from her in an air incident in 2017 so Donna has been at the helm of the company since then, continuing their dreams and vision under the banner of ‘KUPAMBANA’ – to hustle and struggle to make things turn out in a positive way.

The company currently does business in Tanzania, Kenya & Rwanda.  They wish to expand to South Africa, Zimbabwe, Botswana and Namibia.
