This trip offers so many options at each stop. You could easily make this into a two-day adventure if you visit each location.
The only issue we ran into was on the "Choose Your Own Adventure" envelope. We entered the physical address into the GPS and ended up getting lost. After searching by the name of the attraction we were able to find the parking lot. The physical address brought us close to the area but not to the correct spot. Cell reception in the area was not great which made the troubleshooting a little more hectic.
Aside from that minor hiccup we had the best day!
Thank you so much for your thoughtful review and for sharing the details about the GPS mishap. We’re so glad to hear you had the best day despite the minor hiccup! We truly appreciate you bringing this to our attention. We’ll be updating the “Choose Your Own Adventure” envelope right away to ensure the location details are clearer and more accurate to avoid any future confusion.
Thanks again for your feedback, and we hope to help you plan another adventure soon :)

My sister and I purchased this trip as an early birthday present for our sister who was visiting from Scotland. We chose this distance trip and added an overnight stay as we wanted to spread it over two days together. We each have different tastes in things to do and this was great as it had something to suit each of us. We arrived at our first stops a bit late so we decided to have lunch on a patio at a restaurant on the corner next to a recommended stop. It was delicious and the people were so friendly. All the other stops in this town were great and we throughly enjoyed meandering about. Due to the weather and fires two of the recommended spots in the next envelopes didn’t work out great for us but I can see how they could fantastic on a better day. What we did do we loved. Our last day was wonderful. We did a couple of spots in the fourth envelope before heading home. Unfortunately due to the hot summer one wasn’t great but we ran into a local who said it was great a few weeks earlier. The last spot was spectacular and I highly recommend. I loved that this trip gave options that talked about accessibility. It helped us to decided what to do. We didn’t get it all done and plan to go back to check out the rest of them another time. It was great fun to have a trip we didn’t have to plan that was a surprise for us all.
We LOVE this so much! We're so happy that you and your sister got to spend some quality time together, and we feel honoured that chose Guess Where Trips to be part of your adventure. :) Thank you for trying us out and for leaving a review!

I gave this to my 89 yr old dad for his birthday. We were a group of five, my husband, mom, dad, and mother-in-law and me. We thoroughly enjoyed the entire day. We all agreed we would never have noticed these little treasures as we pass through any of these little towns! It made us really slow down and enjoy the scenery and history we discovered on the trip! Definitely will do this again!
We LOVE to hear this and are so glad you all enjoyed your day out! There are so many little hidden gems in this area with some amazing history, so we're glad you could slow down and enjoy the little things. :) Thank you so much for leaving a review!
