Judit Eleod
Tour Adviser and Itinerary Coordinator
Originally from Budapest, Judit’s passion for sport began in childhood, when she was encouraged by her father, a professional tennis player, to try all kinds of sport. As a teenager she was part of a team that led a group activities trip to Lake Balaton and this experience, as well as a degree in Leadership and Organisation, means she is well placed to help Group Leaders finalise the details of their school sports tours. Judit is also extremely well-travelled and, as well as English and her native Hungarian, she is also fluent in Spanish.
- What do you enjoy most about working in sports travel?
- Sport is more than just a physical activity, it ultimately teaches you patience and resistance, among other things. And to combine this with travel is incredible – travel memories are everlasting!
