Inside the travel industry: Daniella Dhorasoo reflects on her four weeks at Kuoni

News Step Up

During her four-week placement at Kuoni, 2025 Travel Media Awards Step Up intern Daniella Dhorasoo gained invaluable insight into how a global tour operator brings its stories to life.

During Daniella’s placement, she:

  • Helped to brainstorm ideas for the relaunch of Kuoni packages, including working on layouts, reviewing images and itineraries.
  • Networked with suppliers from across the continent at the Africa Destination Roadshow.
  • Met with Kuoni’s marketing and studio teams who create the organisation’s content.

Reflecting on her placement, Daniella said: “The four weeks have truly broadened my perspective on global travel trends and strengthened my ability to collaborate across departments with confidence. I made strong connections throughout my time at Kuoni, which made my experience deeply enriching.”

Upon completion of her placement, Daniella, as well as all TMA Step Up interns, will receive six months of mentoring from an experienced industry professional, as well as a coveted ticket to the Travel Media Awards at the Pan Pacific London hotel on 13 October.
