Plan Your Trip With Someone Who's Been There
A 1-hour video consultation with Elinor or Jake — Arctic travel specialists, Northern Lights chasers, and off-the-beaten-path obsessed.
Most travel advice online is either generic or written by someone who hasn't left their desk. We've stood on frozen fjords in Svalbard, waited for the aurora in Finnish Lapland, driven through Greenland's fjords, and found corners of Portugal and Louisiana that don't appear in any guidebook.
If you're planning a trip that feels a little complicated — an Arctic adventure, a Northern Lights chase, somewhere genuinely off the map — we can help you cut through the noise and plan something concrete.
Elinor holds a Master's in Tourism Management with a focus on polar destinations. Between us we've covered more than 40 countries, with a particular depth in Arctic and sub-Arctic regions, the Iberian Peninsula, and off-the-beaten-path Europe.
In one hour together we'll cover:
Where to go and when, based on your specific dates and priorities
Honest advice on what's worth it and what isn't
Accommodation, transport, and logistics tailored to your style
What to realistically expect — including the things blogs don't tell you
This is fully independent advice. No commissions, no partnerships influencing what we recommend — just honest guidance based on real experience.
€70 for a 60-minute Zoom or Google Meet call.
After booking you'll fill in a short form about your trip and we'll send you a few time options within 48 hours.

“We have been dreaming of a trip to a cold and snowy land for some time and discovered the Penguin Trampoline blog. We'd discovered Lapland (Finland/Sweden/Norway) and decided this might be the best place to venture to.
The information Elinor has provided is so complete and informative. We decided to request a call with her to help us get our thoughts together. She provided a video call link and we all got on together and shared our vision with her. She has so much insight on where and what is involved, and the places we've been thinking of going.
We'd recommend a call request if you're at the point in planning that you feel you need some input on from someone who knows that part of the world (and others as well).
Thanks, Elinor (and Macaroni), for the help!”
