Pam Tengan

Get to Know Pam

Tell us a little about yourself.

I grew up in Kaneohe and still live there. Since retiring, my new interests involve tackling home renovations and DIY projects.

What are your hobbies? What do you like to do in your free time?

I enjoy going on walks, hikes, and camp weekends with friends. Watching Hallmark movies is my favorite stay-at-home hobby.

Where is your favorite place to travel? What is your favorite thing to do there?

Japan is by far my favorite place to travel. The culture, people, food and shopping are amazing.

What do you like most about being a Tour Manager?

The most satisfying part of being a tour manager is helping our tour members have FUN-tastic travel experiences. Non-Stop Travel has given me the opportunity to explore the world with many wonderful people who have since become good friends.

Is there anything else you’d like our tour members to know about you?

My bucket list is to visit all 50 states and all 7 continents.

I have been on school group tours, but never on a regular group tour. Our tour manager, Pam Tengan was fantastic. She took care of all of us (36 people, including kids to senior travelers). Our group was terrific because without saying, everyone understood the 'to be early is to be on time' concept. Our JTB tour guide, Nagi, shared her enthusiasm, knowledge, humor, and passion about the areas we visited. Both Pam and Nagi were professional, organized, caring and great listeners. We had specific things that we wanted to do (like going to Jin's to get prescription glasses) and they kept our requests in mind and told us about where and when on the tour would be the best for us to get what we wanted. Between Pam and Nagi, they really went above and beyond to care for each person in the group... How much did we really enjoy the trip? We are already planning a trip in 2026 with Non-stop and Pam as our tour manager.
