Fun day out!

We had a beautiful day to drive along some country roads. We love that we had choices at all stops. The little towns we stopped at were so cute and fun. We definitely saw caves if you go on the Splitrock Narrows hike. Will have to try another Guess Where Trip in the future!

Thank you so much for your review! :) We're so happy that you had a wonderful day of exploring, and we can't wait for you to try another one of our road trips sometime soon!

Best day ever

This was a great adventure. We left Hamilton at 9:30. We had a blast so many things to do and she’s from we will be doing this again.

We're thrilled to hear that you had the best day ever and enjoyed all the activities we have to offer. We can't wait to have you back for another adventure soon! 🙂 Thank you for leaving a review!

I selected this road trip based on Collingwood being the area as we were staying in a cottage nearby, I was really hoping to spend more time in that area, but rather it directed us to an area that we have family so we already knew several of the stops. Still had a great time spending the day together! One of the main attractions was not accessible due to construction in the area so that was disappointing.

Thank you so much for leaving a review and providing your feedback. We'd love to know more about what was closed so that we can inform future travellers! Please email us at questions@guesswheretrips.com for more information.

We're glad you were able to enjoy most of the stops on this trip, and you might love our Markets to Mountains or Bayside Wonders road trips which take place closer to the Collingwood/Georgian Bay areas.

A charming escape from the city!

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 :)
