We had a fantastic day on the Riverside Roaming trip! Such a great start in a beautiful, quaint town that we have never visited - we will definitely be back. The recommended activities were excellent and we loved not knowing our next stop until we were finished each one. It was great to have some recommendations of accommodations since we live a little outside the offered areas. We highly recommend taking part in these curated day trips - we have purchased a few more and can't wait to see where they will take us!

We traveled with another couple and we were all so impressed with the new finds in our "own back yard". We will definitely be returning to some of the excellent restaurant and markets on our own and introducing these places to others!

I loved the Riverside Roaming trip! I wasn't sure what to expect, but my boyfriend and I loved the experience. It was fabulous to explore more of the province including many gems that I would like to return to. This gift was a hit and I will definitely continue to gift and participate in trips from Guess Where in the future. My one tip for Riverside Roaming in particular is to start earlier in the morning. We had traffice leaving Toronto (classic) and we also stayed longer in a couple of the stops, so we didn't have time to complete it all which was fine for us as we explored at our own pace. Have fun!

What a blast exploring small town gems in the fall! Went with our parents and had a great day with an awesome mix of activities for everyone.

This trip was the perfect combo of being in the great outdoors and enjoying local shops and markets. It’s an easy beautiful fall drive (I’m sure it would be equally as lovely in any season). If you do this trip on the weekend we recommend you open Stop 3 ahead so you can book a table at the first location on the list (it was fully booked and an hour wait!) Overall, this was an awesome day trip!
