Covered Bridges & Baked Goods

This trip took me to places I’d never been before. I loved seeing the cows, sheep and goats, the freshly turned fields, and the countless roadside farm stands. Each stop was a wonderful new discovery, and the final stop, a short hike to a beautiful vista, was the perfect ending.

My wife and I had a blast. I do a lot of travel planning for family, and I loved the thoughtfulness and research that went into the itinerary, and your attention to detail. We enjoyed the "suspense" of not finding out where we were going until we opened each envelope. The travel updates page on the website was very helpful. We are already planning to give these trips as gifts to family members.

Here are a couple of other thoughts:

-Small thing, but in the 'stop 1' book, there's a label that says 'Bridges Before Breakfast.' But the 'Before you go' book suggests leaving between 8:30 a.m.-9 a.m., and indicates drive time is 75 minutes+. So really, you're getting there well after breakfast. Not that it stopped us from eating something, but just saying.

-Stop 4 included a museum that closed at 4. By the time we opened that envelope, we didn't really have enough time to do that -- and we would've liked to. We were wondering whether the museum might fit better earlier in the tour, to allow for more time. To be fair, the packet did say 'choose between' the museum and an artisan shop, but again, it would've been cool to have been able to do both.

-Perhaps our only "complaint" is that when we reviewed the trips near us (we're in Pa.) we chose the "Delaware Area Mystery Road Trip," which, on your website and the site (giftory.com) through which we got this trip as a gift, had language that said "Get ready to uncover Delaware's best-kept secrets..." (on your site) and "Self-guided tour through Delaware's offbeat and scenic locations" (giftory site). But the trip is not to Delaware; it's to another part of Pa. Ultimately that was OK and we enjoyed it, but we chose this trip because we were curious to tour a bit in Delaware, so initially we were a bit disappointed to find out we weren't going there.

Again, overall, this was a terrific experience and we would absolutely recommend it to others.

What fun! So many things to go see and try, we ran out of time! We all agreed we would go again but leave a bit earlier since many of the places closed at 4:30pm.

A great weekend get away - low key and perfect to do at your own pace! Make sure you have a GPS system with you or you won't find the bridges (and one of them was closed anyway), and definitely don't plan on anything for Sunday as everything is closed, but a fun time driving around the back roads looking for bridges and stopping to shop here and there. Definitely going to do another trip!

This was my boyfriends Christmas gift this year and the first time either of us had done a Guess Where Trip. The entire day we talked about how much fun we had and enjoyed ourselves. We can't wait to try a different one.
