Fantastic experience working with Mel…

Fantastic experience working with Mel at Northtrotter for trip planning. We scheduled an hour call to review an upcoming Faroe Islands trip and all of her suggestions and changes to my itinerary were specific and beneficial. Mel was clear and helpful, listening to what I wanted while also providing personal recommendations based on her professional experience. I’m so excited for my trip and feel much more confident now!

A warm and well-traveled guide!

Mel is such an awesome tour guide! She's well-traveled, warm, kind, confident, knowledgeable, a great conversationalist, a skilled hiker, etc. In May of 2026, she guided me around the islands of Skúvoy and Streymoy in the Faroe Islands. She was very understanding, and accommodating of my limitations, and skill level, while still being a great motivator for me to keep hiking! I felt very safe with her, and would highly recommend her for any tour, even if she's not yet been to whatever the location may be!
