Want to join the HandPicked Family?
If you run a locally owned, quality-driven business that cares about the community, sustainability, and authentic experiences, you might just belong in the HandPicked family.
How does it work?
We shine a light on unique experiences each city or country has to offer, from hidden gems to heartfelt hospitality.
As a member, you’ll be featured in our curated guides, reaching travelers who value local character and thoughtful choices. Those who want to travel better!
For a small fee, picky locals team up with like minded local businesses, create content for our app, website, and printed guides, and share it with conscious travellers, who get it all for free.
But first, we must talk and ensure we are a fit.
Please send us a message or book a meeting.
We would love to learn more about your business.
Our Values
We take pride in our deep green roots and are passionate about supporting businesses that genuinely care and prioritize sustainability, just like we do.
We seek out unique and honest experiences. Whether it’s a meal, a maker, or a moment, authenticity is what leaves a lasting impression.
We love supporting local businesses run by people with passion, purpose, and a strong connection to their community.
From our partners
“HandPicked brings the right people to our unusual shop”
“We’ve been members of HandPicked from the very beginning, and have seen how Guðbjörg and her team have steadily increased our visibility and brought more visitors through the door. Our shop is unconventional and a bit special, so we feel it’s important to be part of HandPicked.”
“A beautiful guide that actually works!”
“We know HandPicked works for us because travellers sometimes walk in holding the map in their hands. We also love being part of a travel guide that’s not only beautifully designed, but only recommends places that truly have something special to offer.”
