About Us
Our Motto is "Adventure Awakens the Soul!"
Hello and thank you for visiting our webpage. A career in travel has always been a dream of mine. For the last 25 years I worked in public service for Springfield, MO, surrounding areas, and South Carolina. Now, I have opened Beautiful Morning Travel and my public service will continue in a different role. My agency is here to assist you with vacation customizations.
My husband and I have a daughter and one grandson. You will see us traveling with him on some of our trips. I have been on cruises, experienced all-inclusive resorts, traveled internationally, visited multiple US destinations and many theme parks.

Executive Administrator/Tour Director
Pam Gaunt
My name is Pam Gaunt. I am excited to be a part of the Beautiful Morning Travel team!
I’m a 56-year old native to the area. My husband, Dwayne and I have 4 grown kids, 2 beautiful granddaughters and will soon be grandparents to another blessing later this year. I am very active in our church through choir and sing on our praise team. In our spare time we enjoy camping, kayaking, playing games, and of course, traveling when opportunity presents itself. Our greatest love is spending time with our family and friends.
Much of my professional background has been as an administrative assistant and office manager. Several of those years were spent in the hospitality industry. I’ve had a wide-range of experience from planning corporate events, to making travel arrangements for individuals and groups, as well as accompanying students on stateside and international mission trips.
Can’t wait to see where your travels take you and assist in planning those adventures!
