This was my favorite group trip ever! The people were wonderful and all activities were well-planned and fun. Coach Noa is an extremely dedicated running coach and goes above and beyond for all her runners. Tusen takk!

Shannon and Noa put a lot of thought into this carefully planned itinerary. Everything from the cable car trip, dinners, sea kayaking , husky farm trip, Artic floats, shake out runs was well planned and travel sorted. They were the best cheering squad at the race and made sure everyone was included. Definitely a runners dream trip ! The group was a great vibe and as an introvert I felt this was the right speed and the activities well spaced out. Cannot wait to go on the next race trip !

This trip was easily five stars for me. I joined not knowing what to expect and came away very impressed. The hosts were well organized, but also very down-to-earth and just cool to hang out with. They had everything covered and made sure we were well informed both before and during the trip. I also appreciated that group calls were set up and a WhatsApp group was created weeks before, which took eased any concerns I had about signing on. The itinerary was thorough, yet set up in a way that wasn’t overwhelming. The restaurants and activities were all amazing, but I also appreciated that the schedule allowed for downtime to explore on our own. I would easily recommend this trip and Paces and Places to other travelers, and I can definitely see myself joining another adventure with them.

This trip was perfect from start to finish. The hosts were incredibly communicative leading up to the trip and even started a WhatsApp chat for all of us to get to know each other. They put together a thorough packing list so we were sure not to miss anything, and also provided us with a thorough itinerary that included all of our individual documents. Every step of the trip went smoothly, the restaurants they chose were delicious, and the activities allowed us to truly experience Tromso. I would highly recommend to any friend!

This trip could not have been better. Shannon & Noa, who planned it, were with us every step of the way and were incredibly helpful as well as a blast to hang out with. The group size was perfect and it was so much fun getting to know everyone through the various activities. The types and amounts of activities were really well thought-out to keep us busy with adventures you probably wouldn't have thought to plan if you booked the trip yourself, while also keeping enough free time to relax and do a little exploring on our own. The restaurants we went to as a group had really great food, and we got to try some local specialties. The trip was filled with new experiences, memorable moments, and lots of laughs. Really incredible value for the price. Truly can't say it enough - this was a spectacular trip - one I'll remember fondly for the rest of my life. I definitely plan to travel with Paces & Places again soon.
