Our mailed road trips ($65) include a well-curated itinerary for the day with a focus on scenic routes, hidden gems, unique businesses, photo ops and a lot more. We pack the itineraries with travel tips, fun facts and stories about the places you’ll be visiting. Our trips come in five envelopes, which are tied with a bow and placed into a folder to keep everything neat and tidy. The digital version ($39) of the trip comes as a pdf.
Note: If you choose the PDF option, there are no surprise stop envelopes. All of the stops will be sent digitally to your email in one file, so scrolling through the entire document will reveal the surprise stops.
