Hello! My name is Shelby Lafrinere.

I have traveled my whole life visiting 47 states many times over and 9 countries.

An adventurer, teacher, and story teller, I seek to create trips that are experiences of a lifetime not just another vacation.

I have been a Tour Director and Tour Guide for 4 years. Prior to that, I was a professional dancer and a Yoga Therapist, Yoga Teacher Trainer, Program Director and Manager. I have spent my life learning how people communicate, how to engage them in the experience at hand, and how to structure itinerary (curriculum) to build on each success so people can feel empowered and safe enough to grow from their experiences.

Additionally, I have managed teams of as many as 40 people, organized programming for numerous retreats and trainings as well as directed programming for a 1,000+ member organization. This has helped me lead numerous tours of different styles, price points, and ages with great success and excellent reviews. While I enjoy a variety of tours styles, I particularly thrive leading nature/adventure trips and family trips.

I enjoy the learning curve that is required of a guide. I take the role seriously, bringing accountability and
responsibility to each trip while also having a lot of fun and appreciation for the opportunity to help people live out their dreams!
