Rural Road Trip w/ Sister

I gifted this day trip to my sister following her college graduation. We thoroughly enjoyed the "surprise" element to the trip as it allowed us both to be present with one another knowing our itinerary was already set. There were so many suggestions for additional stops, it was hard to fit everything in for a single day. We really appreciated getting to check out stops we would've otherwise looked past. I do recommend bringing a cooler on this trip as there were many shops selling goods; we would've purchased a lot more if we'd been able to preserve everything. We also found the drive to the first stop to be twice as long as what was stated. Given the amount of nature on this route, we also would've benefitted from guidance around where bathrooms would be available. This was our first experience with GWT and we're looking forward to the next one!

Bridges & Beaches

This was a fun trip with lots to do - I think the name is a bit misleading as it was only in XXX that there were bridges or beaches. However we really enjoyed it as a day out - I would recommend to anyone.

Gorgeous Goderich

This trip is entirely worth it. XXX is definitely the prettiest town in Canada. Elizabeth II knew what she was talking about when she said so. It felt like being in a Hallmark movie and there is a lot to do there. Some of the stops getting there were just ok.
