My husband and I had a great time on the Beauty and Bridges trip! We loved all the stops from the bridges to the wineries and everything in between. We will definitely buy another Guess Where trip. I highly recommend for a day trip with your partner or friends. (Please delete everything in parentheses if you use this review. There was one spot that we did not feel safe. The owner of one of the stops said he wouldn’t suggest it. If someone would want to contact me by email I will elaborate.)
A wonderful day trip for our group of 5
Hi there
My experience great. Trip one and 3 had closed locations. Trip 2 was to st Jacob’s and the farmers market is closest Friday, which the trip package says it’s open. Trip 5 was to elora gorg, I which is hiking and sightseeing .
The road trip was awesome! Finding these little towns with amazing stories and walkways and towns, made us really think that we were on vacation, was a nice get away nice date day !
Birthday/Anniversary Trip
Thanks for your review! Looking forward to seeing you on more adventures with us! :)
I was hopeful but skeptical heading into the trip as I'd done a lot of southern Ontario day trips and exploration, so while I was confident I would enjoy the locations, I wasn't sure how good a find they would be. But every stop was new to me, and the recommendations for food, shops, and sights if interest were hits. Both with my and kids (12 and 14).
Thank you so much for your thoughtful review! We’re so glad to hear that, even as a seasoned explorer of Southern Ontario, the trip still brought you to new places and experiences you hadn’t discovered before. It’s especially great to know the stops and recommendations were a hit with both you and your kids — that’s exactly what we hope for! :)
This trip offers so many options at each stop. You could easily make this into a two-day adventure if you visit each location.
The only issue we ran into was on the "Choose Your Own Adventure" envelope. We entered the physical address into the GPS and ended up getting lost. After searching by the name of the attraction we were able to find the parking lot. The physical address brought us close to the area but not to the correct spot. Cell reception in the area was not great which made the troubleshooting a little more hectic.
Aside from that minor hiccup we had the best day!
Thank you so much for your thoughtful review and for sharing the details about the GPS mishap. We’re so glad to hear you had the best day despite the minor hiccup! We truly appreciate you bringing this to our attention. We’ll be updating the “Choose Your Own Adventure” envelope right away to ensure the location details are clearer and more accurate to avoid any future confusion.
Thanks again for your feedback, and we hope to help you plan another adventure soon :)
Purchased this as a birthday gift to myself. I went by myself and still had a really good experience. Next time I will go with a friend so they can drive and I can get to fully enjoy the experience. I would not have discovered that sooner of these stops even existed if I hadn’t gone on this trip.
Thank you so much for sharing your experience — we love that you treated yourself to this trip for your birthday! It’s awesome to hear you had a great time solo and discovered new places you might not have found otherwise. We agree — bringing a friend next time sounds like a perfect way to enjoy it even more. We hope your next adventure is just as fun (and maybe even more relaxing)! :)
We had a great time on our day trip. Enjoyed each spot. Some spots were very over priced - $19 for a corn maze is crazy!!!
Thanks so much for your review — we’re glad to hear you had a great time and enjoyed each stop on your day trip! :) We really appreciate your feedback about pricing at some locations. Since many of the stops are independently operated, prices can vary, but we’ll definitely keep this in mind as we continue to refine our recommendations.
My partner and I were thrilled to go on this experience for his birthday! Luckily, this came at a really great time and we were able to visit a bonus place that is open for a limited amount of time. He really enjoyed a lot of the spaces we visited, and I really appreciated the cute nooks and being able to take photos. Would highly recommend for those couples looking to find a fun balance between cozy and outdoorsy. :) Thanks for the fun experience!
Thank you so much for sharing this — we’re thrilled to hear you chose our experience to celebrate such a special occasion! It sounds like you timed it perfectly with that bonus stop, and we love that you both found moments that made the day meaningful. We really appreciate the recommendation :)
My wife and I had a wonderful trip, we did it over two days to fully enjoy each stop. Definitely would try other trips that you offer!
We're so glad to hear you and your wife had a wonderful trip! Taking the time to enjoy each stop over two days sounds like a perfect way to experience it. We’d love to have you join us on another adventure soon :)
We had a wonderful day! We saw many new things, ate some amazing food and enjoyed the fresh air! Thank you GWT for planning a great day for us. We recommend this trip especially in the heat of the summer.
Thank you so much for your kind words! We're thrilled to hear you had a wonderful day filled with new sights, great food, and fresh air. It’s great to know the trip was a hit — especially during the summer heat! We truly appreciate your recommendation and hope to plan another adventure for you soon. :)
The trip was a unique adventure visiting towns and locations for the first time. The mix of sights and activities was well chosen and we enjoyed each and every one. We arrived in Forest at the cafe just minutes after closing but they treated us to a c couple of fritters. We promised to return, which we did a month later and highly recommend stopping there. The apple cider they sell is a must.
We are ready to try our next Guess Where Trip and so are our friends since they've heard our recommendation.
Thank you so much for your lovely review! We're thrilled to hear you had such a memorable adventure and enjoyed the mix of sights and activities along the way. What a sweet story about the café in Forest—it's wonderful to hear they treated you so kindly, and we're glad you went back to support them. The apple cider tip is noted! We're excited to hear you're ready for your next Guess Where Trip, and we truly appreciate you spreading the word to your friends. We can’t wait to surprise you all again! :)
This was a gift for our daughter's first anniversary. They will tell me when they go on their trip.
Thank you for sharing! What a wonderful and thoughtful gift for your daughter’s first anniversary. We hope they have an amazing experience when they take their trip. We'd love to hear more about it once they've gone—feel free to share their feedback when the time comes! :)
we had an excellent time. Trip was well planned and directions, etc., were easy to follow. Have recommended to others as well, some of whom have already purchased.
Thank you so much for your kind words! We're thrilled to hear that you had an excellent time and that everything went smoothly with the planning and directions. It truly means a lot to us that you’ve recommended the trip to others — we’re grateful for your support and trust. We hope to welcome you (and your friends!) on another adventure soon! :)
Nice day out. New discovering for us. Quite enjoyable.
Thank you for your review! We're so glad to hear you had a nice day out and enjoyed discovering something new — especially with a bit of history and tea involved :) Happy to hear it was a pleasant experience for you!
This trip was filled with wonderful hidden gems that we would have never thought to stop at on our own! Perfectly planned! Thanks so much!
Thank you so much for your kind words! We're so glad you enjoyed the hidden gems along the way — that's exactly what we love to hear! :) It means a lot to know the trip felt perfectly planned. Thanks again for taking the time to share your experience!
What a great weekend getaway! Despite living in Ottawa for a few years, this trip recommended wonderful stops that made for an unforgettable weekend adventure!
Thank you so much for your kind review! We're thrilled to hear that even as an Ottawa local, you discovered new and memorable spots through the trip. That’s exactly what we hope to offer — a fresh perspective and a fun adventure, even close to home! So glad you had a great weekend getaway! :)
Loved this trip! I did it with my mom and 3 month old son. Lots to do and see! The customer service is amazing.. any questions you have they will have an answer right away!
Thank you so much for the lovely review! We're so happy to hear you loved the trip and were able to enjoy it with your mom and little one — what a special way to spend the day! :) We’re also thrilled to hear our customer service stood out. We’re always here to help, and it means a lot that you felt supported along the way. Thanks again for sharing your experience!
Beautifully Haunted
Thanks for your review! :)
This was a nice day out with my mother. I did find in a bit zig zag but it could have been that we came from Barrie and had to go back that way along with a closed road. If I know that i would have switch stop 3 and 4. It was a nice way to go out and see some new things
Thank you so much for your review — we're glad to hear you had a nice day out with your mother and enjoyed discovering some new places!
We appreciate the note about the route feeling a bit zig-zagged — coming from Barrie and dealing with a road closure can definitely affect the flow. Your suggestion to switch stops 3 and 4 in that case makes a lot of sense. We'll take that into account as we look for ways to improve the experience for different starting points. Thanks again for your thoughtful feedback! :)
What a wonderful experience. The Muskoka Meandering trip introduced us to hidden gems that we normally would not have found or been inclined to visit. The descriptions of each stop gave unique perspectives that made us want to visit them. Opening the envelope on every leg of the journey to find out where we were heading next added mystery and excitement to the trip. Loved it!
We’re so happy to hear you loved the Muskoka Meandering trip! It’s amazing to know the hidden gems and little surprises made the experience special for you. The envelope-opening mystery is one of our favourite parts too — thanks for sharing your journey with us! :)
This road trip was amazing! We loved using the envelopes and waiting to open them along the way. The stops were fun & tasty. In Southampton, I would recommend including Offshore Bakery and their amazing Honey Croissants!! We chose to stay in Port Elgin a couple of days. We did the other direction of stop 4 on the way home. It did not disappoint!
Thank you so much for the wonderful feedback! We're thrilled you enjoyed the journey (and the delicious stops!). Offshore Bakery sounds like a gem — we’ll definitely look into adding it as a suggestion for future travellers. Love that you added your own twist to the route too — that’s exactly the kind of adventure we hope to inspire!
We had so much fun
Will do more for sure
We’re so glad to hear you had a great time! Thanks for the kind words — we’d love to be part of your next adventure too. Can’t wait to have you back for another trip! :)
