The TRUE team

Founder & CEO

I have been lucky enough to travel to over 60 countries around the world, visiting many of the best hotels and making life-long friends along the way. I see the job that we do at True Travel as a simple one – to understand the specific requirements of each client, and to use our first-hand knowledge and experience to create extraordinary memories.

MOLLY PIGOTT

Commercial Director

My first taste of the travel industry began with an internship at True Travel in their infancy year. After finding my footing at a larger competitor, I returned to True Travel as Head of Operations. The beauty of a small company was knowing the details of every trip and client by name – I thrived off it. As we’ve grown, and I’ve moved to become Commercial Director, that highly personal and attentive service is something that I now take pride in seeing executed through every avenue of the company.

PETER TRANGMAR

Director of Global Sales

My time working in the luxury travel industry started 13 years ago following a backpacking trip around South East Asia and Australia. As well as still arranging amazing trips, I now enjoy the challenges of management, particularly in developing junior members of the team by utilising the knowledge I have gained with over a decade of experience.

MOLLY KINNAIRD

Head of Europe

I spent much of my childhood on Ireland’s Wild Atlantic Way: swimming with dolphins or fishing for mackerel. It remains my favourite corner of the world, but it instilled a love of nature, doing as the locals do, and getting off the increasingly beaten track. From scaling all the steps of Santorini to dancing with the Sami under the Northern Lights. Europeans forget how lucky we are to be surrounded by such diverse cultures, but my role reminds me of this all too regularly and I love to help people discover this incredible continent.

MATT WISE
Senior Africa Travel Designer

Having grown up in South Africa, visiting the region’s wild places was a staple of my upbringing. This left a lasting passion for Africa’s wildlife and natural beauty that translated itself into a fulfilling career in travel, arranging safari trips to Africa’s remote and exotic places. I started out as a junior consultant but gradually worked my way up to intermediate and senior levels as my interest and passion for the travel industry grew, and have since worked for some of the world’s top safari operators.

PETER FELIX

Senior Africa Travel Designer

My first experience with Africa was back in 2002 when I spent a few months on the Eastern Cape. It was on that very first trip that a 20-year long love affair with the continent began. Having worked in the travel industry for over 16 years now, I have created countless incredible client trips to the many explored and adored countries that I have had the opportunity to experience first-hand. From wild safaris, secluded island escapes or an exploration of Africa’s extensive history and unique culture.

ALICE PEDEN

Travel Tailor

Being fortunate enough to have been travelling from a young age, family holidays sparked my love for travel and desire to take this passion further with a career in travel. After a period of working in France, I returned home and began studying for a postgraduate degree in International Tourism Management. Having just completed this course I am very excited to have joined True Travel as Operations Executive and I look forward to learning from the best!

ELLA POVEY

Marketing Executive

Having had a childhood of traversing across cities, countries and continents my passion for travelling was ignited at a young age. As the years have gone by I have made it a priority to immerse myself in new cultures, discover rich traditions and engage with diverse communities in order to broaden my perspective. It is a joy to bring my personal enthusiasm into my role at True Travel and share the weird, wonderful and downright brilliant corners of the world with our clients.

EMILY BEOR-ROBERTS

European Travel Tailor

From travelling through South America to learning the intricacies of salmon fishing in Scotland, my experience with travel has been nothing short of wonderful so far. I believe travel to be a means to learn, grow and develop as an individual and with that in mind I can’t wait to work within the Europe team here at True Travel to showcase what amazing experiences are on offer from the experts themselves.

EVIE OSWALD

Senior Latin America Travel Designer

I’ve been on a number of professional trips in Latin America, specifically to Costa Rica, Argentina, Chile and the Galapagos Islands. I’ve inspected and stayed at many different properties in these areas and have first hand experience of some of the continent’s best places to stay.

OLIVIA ROSE

Travel Tailor

Throughout my childhood I religiously watched David Attenborough programmes; seeing the vast array of landscapes and fascinating wildlife made me excited about the world of travel. My travel experience thus far has truly been incredible; from hiking up and sledging back down the snow-capped Villarica Volcano in Chile to assisting with Elephant and lion operations in Africa.

IMOGEN FITZJOHN

Positive Impact Manager

I had the privilege of growing up in a National Park in Tanzania where my family worked in wildlife conservation, environmental rehabilitation, community outreach programmes and endangered species programmes.
