Meet the Founders
Our mission is to provide travel experiences of quality and integrity, and to deliver them with the highest level of service and value for our guests. In so doing, we will be socially responsible in the communities and environments where we operate, treading lightly on the land and giving back to the people who welcome us so graciously.
For more than 30 years, Judi Wineland and Rick Thomson have upheld this mission: To open the hearts of Thomson guests through travel. To be the leaders in the industry, a company you can trust wholeheartedly. To introduce Tanzania’s gracious people, remote landscapes, and elusive wildlife to individuals, families, couples, friends—anyone who believes in the power of travel to sharpen our minds, enrich our lives, and make us whole.
