About Me

Enjoying the afternoon with a family of elephants
Enjoying the afternoon with a family of elephants

As an adventure travel specialist, I don’t just plan thrilling journeys, I live them. My passion for immersive, heart-pounding experiences has taken me across the globe, allowing me to guide clients with firsthand insight and genuine enthusiasm.

I’ve trekked deep into the Andes of Peru, conquering the legendary Inca Trail and standing in awe atop Rainbow Mountain’s vibrant summit. My time in Costa Rica was spent soaring over the jungle canopy on exhilarating zipline adventures, leaping into crystal-clear pools while cliff diving, and embracing the wild, untamed spirit of the rainforest.

Here at home, I’ve explored some of America’s most iconic landscapes on foot, from the misty trails of the Great Smoky Mountains to the geothermal wonders of Yellowstone, the towering peaks of the Grand Tetons, and the breathtaking red-rock paths of Zion and Bryce Canyon. These hikes have deepened my appreciation for natural beauty and fueled my desire to help others experience it for themselves.

One of my most transformative journeys took me to East Africa, where I embarked on an unforgettable safari through Tanzania. I witnessed wildlife up close during game drives across the Serengeti, Ngorongoro Crater, and Tarangire National Park, and even ventured on a walking safari in Arusha National Park, experiencing the bush in the most intimate and authentic way possible.

All of these adventures have shaped my specialty: creating meaningful, memory-making itineraries for travelers who crave exploration, discovery, and a little adrenaline. Whether it's a challenging mountain trek, a wildlife encounter, or an off-the-beaten-path experience, I love helping clients push boundaries, embrace the unknown, and see the world in extraordinary ways.

One in a lifetime trip
Reviewed By Lawrence - Somerset Ky | Traveled to Yellowstone National Park | Wyoming | USA
Rhonda planned us a great trip to Montana and Wyoming. I have always wanted to go out West . I'm so glad I finally got the chance. Thanks to Rhonda is was a trip I'll never forget. She asked what was important for us to see and do on the trip and then she put it all together. I don't know how she done it, but it was everything we asked for and more. She is the best and I would recommend her to anyone.
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

Wonderful Yellowstone National Park Trip
Reviewed By Cindy - Somerset, KY | Traveled to Yellowstone National Park | Wyoming | USA
Rhonda done a great job planning our trip. We told her what we wanted and she worked her magic. We wanted a cowboy experience out west, so she scheduled a horse back ride, a fantastic float ride down snake river, a covered wagon ride with cookout and a show and then a rodeo to top it off. It was a wonderful vacation thanks to Rhonda. She is the best! I would highly recommend her.

Trip worthy of being on the "Bucket List"
Reviewed By Hacker5709 - Russell Springs, Kentucky | Traveled to Scotland | Europe
My wife and daughter have always wanted to travel to Scotland and Ireland. It's in our blood on both sides of the family. When my buddy suggested we golf in the birthplace of the game, there was no way we couldn't go. Rhonda Thomas at Picture This Travel set us up in expert fashion. Five days in Scotland and five days in Ireland with a day to transition between the countries. Beautiful country, excellent golf for the lads, and awesome sightseeing for the lasses. And everyone enjoyed the local food. Rhonda made the planning easy, provided perfect recommendations, and the trip was a home run for all of us. The gals visited Loch Ness and Isle of Skye, we kissed the Blaney Stone, and the guys got to play St Andrews! But everyone agreed, staying a Dromoland Castle was the highlight of the trip. If you get a chance to go, stay at the castle and trust Rhonda to make it special.
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

Honeymoon Ireland
Reviewed By Mdebas8 - Morgantown, WV | Traveled to Ireland | Europe
We had the BEST trip to Ireland. Rhonda was amazing every step of the way. I told my husband multiple times during the trip that it could not have been planned any better. We had just enough planned that we got to see everything we wanted but also had downtime to explore and enjoy being newlyweds! I would highly recommend booking with Rhonda as she gave us a trip of a lifetime!
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends.

    African Safari

    From the moment we stepped out of the airport in Tanzania and were greeted by our driver’s warm, genuine smile, I knew we had made the right decision for our African adventure. That instant welcome set the tone for a journey that would forever change how I see the world. Our first day began with a walking safari in Arusha National Park, a...
