Meet Your Host!
I’m Melissa
Your go-to girl for all things travel
I’ve traveled to over 40 countries solo! And I’m passionate about helping you explore the world.
My favorite part about traveling is trying the local cuisine, taking photographs, and making new friends!
I’m a big believer that anyone can achieve their goals if they are willing to work at it!
What They’re Saying
The trip was perfect. All the excursions were well planned and appealed to all the different individuals in our group. Our travel guide, Melissa, even added a personal touch by planning the naming ceremony/activity.
The day on a private boat was magical. I never imagined myself swimming in caves and exploring quaint seaside villages. The trip exceeded my expectations.
Melissa did a great job on planning a wonderful trip for us. She had all our accommodations made, which were prefect. Day trips were planned and were all amazing. Melissa was very easy to communicate with and responded quickly to any questions I had. The trip was seamless. Meet some wonderful women that I now can say are friends. Would absolutely book another trip with Melissa in a minute, actually planning one for next year. Best decision I could have made.
This is my THIRD trip with Melissa…I think that says it all!!!
This was my second time in Greece with Melissa, only one year later. I definitely fell in love with this country the first time, and I plan to go back and visit another part. The water, the food, the weather, the charm, and history.
It’s all mesmerizing. And I’m certainly happy for all the new and continued friendships. Booking my first trip to Greece in 2025 has been one of the best decisions of my life!
Great balance of activities around food, history, exploring the islands and cities, as well as downtime to relax and refresh. Melissa did a great job of making everyone feel comfortable and a part of the group. And I love how she communicated so much before the trip so we all knew what to pack and what to expect each day. I’d totally Recommend her trips!
I’ve always wanted to go to Greece and this was the perfect opportunity as a single woman.
Melissa is a gem. She plans every aspect of the trip with care, has a lovely spirit, and truly enjoys the trip and experience with the group. I’m so glad I found her group trips on Tiktok.
Memories that last, new friends, and a wonderful experience.
I would give this trip ten stars if I could. Everything was so well organized. It was the perfect balance of planned activities and free time. We stayed at boutique hotels that had personality. We dined at a number of great restaurants. We were spoiled with boat trips, wine tastings and jeep tours.
I can’t say enough wonderful things about how Melissa conducted this trip. It was the vacation of my dreams.
