So much fun!

Great first time doing a guess my trips package! It was so much fun and suspenseful not knowing where you’ll end up next. I went in the summer with my boyfriend and it made some of the activities more enjoyable as there is an aspect of climbing/hiking. If you’re thinking of a day trip filled with cute spots in the London area, this is the trip for you!

Markets to Mountains

Such a fabulous trip. My friends and enjoyed every aspect of this trip. It’s definitely a full day adventure so give yourself some time, and maybe even book a hotel (as recommended).

Five out of five!

Wow!! I've lived close to this area my whole llife but never made the trip out to see these places. It was so fun! The suggestions were amazing, kept us busy all day, and we found places that we'll totally return to again!! love that it was just a day trip from home, because now we have a new favourite "picturesque town" that we visit just 45 mins from home!

The perfect little day trip

We did this trip from Toronto and it was the perfect driving distance. Cute markets, hikes and towns. GWT actually introduced me to my fav little town in Ontario.
