Markets to Mountains was 2 thumbs up!

Just returned from this trip. Had a fabulous time. Skipped the outdoor stops due to weather. Food stops were sooo delicious & had vegetarian & gluten free options. Yum.

Markets to Mountains

we really enjoyed this trip. It was very well set out in all of the envelopes with great instructions. Lots to do!! We decided to make it a weekend trip so we could make the most of all of the venues and stops along the way.

It was a great trip to do in the winter and we would also recommend it to others for a summer getaway too.

Looking forward to experiencing more Trips from Guess Where Trips!!

My favourite trip so far!

obsessed with this trip! a little far of a drive from my hometown (St. Thomas, On) but we got some hotel recommendations in our email so we made it a weekend trip. The third stop was definitely my favourite -it was the cutest town ever

Give me more weekend trips like this!

I had never been to this area before but had always wanted to go. I originally emailed the GWT team to ask if they had a trip that ended nearby and they suggested this one.

It was the perfect combination of indoor and outdoor activities, which was great because we went in the winter. So cool to be able to choose your own fourth stop destination too!
