THE BIRTH OF A GROOVY DREAM...

What do you do with a love for people and adventure, the joy of discovery, a VW bus and 30 years of bottled up crazy? Create a highly unique, laid-back, groovy tour operation! What better way to share with guests The Most Beautiful Small Town in America than in a vintage VW bus!

After moving to North Idaho in 2011 with her family, Michelle traded her business suits for hiking boots and began a journey of discovering a whole new way of living. However, being faced with a tough job market, Michelle decided the timing was perfect to reinvent herself and pursue her childhood dream of becoming a Tour Director.

Michelle’s reinvention started in 2018 by earning two important tourism designations - Certified International Tour Manager through the International Guide Academy in Denver, Colorado, and Certified Interpretive Guide through the National Association of Interpretation in Fort Collins, Colorado.

After lots of diligent research and numbers crunching with her husband and business partner, Tom, all systems were a big “GO!” and they were off on a new journey to find a late model 1970’s VW bus that seats 7 passengers, has sliding windows, a 2.0 liter, fuel injected engine; and a large touring sunroof.

A serendipitous crossing of paths with Chuck Luettgerodt of Inland Aviation Specialties and VW UNLTD outside a local coffee shop in Sandpoint last summer was seriously a gift from God. Michelle knew that having a local, air cooled VW specialist was the missing link to her business plan.

With Chuck’s guidance and 40 years of air cooled VW restoration experience, they were able to locate a beautiful, 1976 VW bus in San Diego, California. The bus was ready to go to auction, but Michelle nabbed the bus just in time, had her transported to Sandpoint last November, and the restoration project kicked off in December.

Michelle says the community support has been overwhelming, with a land based tour operation long overdue in our region. There’s an abundance of things to see and experience in this area that most travelers are unaware of and Michelle’s goal is to delight guests beyond their expectation and enlighten their journey every step of the way.

And as Sly & the Family Stone sang, “It’s a Family Affair...” it really is - Michelle’s husband, Tom, is a numbers crunching machine and their daughter, Claire, a student at Boise State studying journalism and mixed media, has commandeered Feelin Groovy Tours’ social media campaign, photography and videography. Michelle says Feelin’ Groovy Tours wouldn’t exist without the creativity and talents of the FGT team members, a supportive community and a highly talented group of local artists whose work is featured on their touring bus.

We hope to see you on a Feelin’ Groovy Tour this summer, where you’ll experience North Idaho’s stunning, pristine beauty and bluebird skies while discovering mountains and lakes carved out by Ice Age glaciers, learn about the people who pioneered North Idaho’s Panhandle region, Sandpoint’s raucous beginnings, and discover ranches, farms, museums, artists’ studios and more!

See ya’ on the flip side, Michelle
