For me, the guessing experience started several weeks before we even started the trip. Out of the blue, Angelo asked me to block a full day off for an extra special date. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\"><p>It doesn&#8217;t have to be any special day&#8230; we can do it whenever, but it does need to be a full day. Oh and wear comfy but cute clothes. <\/p><cite>Angelo being tightlipped when I asked where we were going<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Talk about mysterious! So here&#8217;s the thing about me. I love guessing things. I love guessing movie endings before starting a movie, guessing where we&#8217;re going and even guessing my birthday or Christmas gifts before I get them. I love it so much that Angelo has had to impose a &#8216;guess 3 times only&#8217; rule to keep me from talking his ear off! Having a <em>very<\/em> tightlipped partner meant that I wasn&#8217;t going to get any more hints. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hmm.. since he said that &#8216;<em>it doesn&#8217;t have to be any particular day<\/em>&#8216; that probably meant it wasn&#8217;t holiday-related, concert-related or any special event-related activities like Rib Fest. But the full-day part really got me thinking&#8230; alas, I really didn&#8217;t have much to go on! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Maybe a winery somewhere? Or a hike at one of the provincial parks? Hmm but the &#8216;comfy AND cute&#8217; part doesn&#8217;t seem like it could be a hike either (I don&#8217;t own &#8216;cute&#8217; hiking clothes.. they&#8217;re all sweats!). I was stumped! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Revealing the Surprise and Receiving the Package<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A few days later we received a non-descript brown package in the mail. It was just large enough to hold a book. Turns out the package was for the full day date! Now my thoughts were racing. Maybe we were going to a concert after all? Hmm but this was October 2020, during COVID restriction times, there&#8217;s no way there&#8217;d be a concert right now. Something that only the two of us could do&#8230; Maybe it was one of those date book ideas and we would spend the day going through it? I was still stumped. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By now, we had already decided on a date and my not-so-discreet search attempts on the Internet for upcoming events resulted in.. no answers. I was still doing to have to wait and find out what we were doing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My project manager tendencies were really itching. I <strong>needed <\/strong>to make a plan for our date, but I <strong>couldn&#8217;t<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\"><p>I&#8217;m not opening this until the night before.

I was finally going to find out what we were doing. <strong>Imagine my surprise when I found out we were doing a getaway from Toronto and that Angelo, the one who &#8216;planned&#8217; this date, didn&#8217;t know what we were doing either! <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All he knew was that we were in for an interesting and possible weird experience &#8211; he bought Guess Where Trips&#8217; <strong><span style=\"color:#42a639\" class=\"has-inline-color\">Weird &amp; Wonderful Things<\/span><\/strong> for us to try out.

Alas, I needed to wait one more night before I could \ud83d\ude41  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We read the &#8216;before you go&#8217; envelope and followed the instructions. We packed some money and picked out some clothes for our date. It was pretty clear that we would be driving for a while. There was also something about donating a can of goods at one of the locations&#8230; but ironically enough we didn&#8217;t have any canned goods in our house that day, so we made a mental note to stop by somewhere on our date day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Our Trip Experience<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignwide size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC_5945.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"684\" src=\"https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC_5945-1024x684.jpg\" alt=\"Guess Where Trips - First Stop\" class=\"wp-image-1989\" srcset=\"https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC_5945-1024x684.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC_5945-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC_5945-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC_5945.jpg 1400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><figcaption>Our first stop was at a caf\u00e9 in a picturesque town<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>To keep the experience as spoiler-free as possible &#8211; this part is purposely going to be vague.

We weren&#8217;t able to linger at the caf\u00e9 because of COVID travel policies and drank our coffee outside. Unfortunately because of this, we weren&#8217;t really able to appreciate their unique interior design for more than a few minutes as we waited for our coffee to brew. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At this point, we met a family of four who also stopped by this cafe. As they bought their cookies and headed back to the car, we noticed they were clutching the same Guess Where envelopes as us! So as you go on these itineraries, keep your eyes peeled as you may see fellow Guess Where adventurers around you too!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery alignwide columns-2 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><a href=\"https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC_6070.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"684\" src=\"https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC_6070-1024x684.jpg\" alt=\"Guess Where Trips Review - Your Second Stop\" data-id=\"1991\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC_6070.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/syderoad.com\/dsc_6070\/\" class=\"wp-image-1991\" srcset=\"https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC_6070-1024x684.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC_6070-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC_6070-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC_6070.jpg 1400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><a href=\"https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC_6093.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"684\" src=\"https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC_6093-1024x684.jpg\" alt=\"Guess Where Trips Second Stop\" data-id=\"1992\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC_6093.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/syderoad.com\/dsc_6093\/\" class=\"wp-image-1992\" srcset=\"https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC_6093-1024x684.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC_6093-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC_6093-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC_6093.jpg 1400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><a href=\"https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC_6116.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"684\" src=\"https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC_6116-1024x684.jpg\" alt=\"Guess Where Trips Second Stop\" data-id=\"1994\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC_6116.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/syderoad.com\/dsc_6116\/\" class=\"wp-image-1994\" srcset=\"https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC_6116-1024x684.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC_6116-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC_6116-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC_6116.jpg 1400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/li><\/ul><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Next, we stopped at a cute town (not pictured to keep things spoiler-free!) with a waterfall before opening our next envelope. We entered the address into our GPS and away we went. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignwide size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC_6152.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"684\" src=\"https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC_6152-1024x684.jpg\" alt=\"Guess Where Trips Scenic Viewpoint\" class=\"wp-image-1995\" srcset=\"https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC_6152-1024x684.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC_6152-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC_6152-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC_6152.jpg 1400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Our next stop took us to a populated scenic viewpoint of the area where we got to enjoy the fall colours the area had to offer. The envelope did mention that this particular location was a perfect place to enjoy a lunch break, but we decided to stop by one more optional hike activity before trying one of the three lunch places offered in the itinerary. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery alignwide columns-2 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><a href=\"https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC_6393.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"935\" height=\"1400\" src=\"https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC_6393.jpg\" alt=\"Guess Where Trips - Optional Hike\" data-id=\"1996\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC_6393.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/syderoad.com\/dsc_6393\/\" class=\"wp-image-1996\" srcset=\"https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC_6393.jpg 935w, https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC_6393-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC_6393-684x1024.jpg 684w, https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC_6393-768x1150.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 935px) 100vw, 935px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><a href=\"https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC_6416.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1400\" height=\"935\" src=\"https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC_6416.jpg\" alt=\"Guess Where Trips - Recommended Lunch Location\" data-id=\"1997\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC_6416.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/syderoad.com\/dsc_6416\/\" class=\"wp-image-1997\" srcset=\"https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC_6416.jpg 1400w, https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC_6416-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC_6416-1024x684.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC_6416-768x513.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1400px) 100vw, 1400px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/li><\/ul><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>To be honest the optional hike was gorgeous! We liked this hike better than the waterfall listed in the main itinerary. It was a slightly secluded, tall, and beautiful waterfall nestled at the end of a short trail. We had the option to head to the top of the falls as well as enjoy a short walk to the falls&#8217; bottom. There was practically nobody there and it felt like we had the falls all to ourselves that day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Afterwards, we went for lunch at one of the recommended locations, and again due to COVID restrictions, we had to get takeout and eat it outside, but the food was delicious. At this point we needed a canned food donation, so we stopped by a gas station to pick one up before heading to our last and final stop, an outdoor park.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery alignwide columns-1 wp-block-gallery-3 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><a href=\"https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC_6431.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"684\" src=\"https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC_6431-1024x684.jpg\" alt=\"Guess Where Trips - Last Stop Parking Lot\" data-id=\"1998\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC_6431.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/syderoad.com\/dsc_6431\/\" class=\"wp-image-1998\" srcset=\"https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC_6431-1024x684.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC_6431-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC_6431-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC_6431.jpg 1400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><a href=\"https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC_6543.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"684\" src=\"https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC_6543-1024x684.jpg\" alt=\"Guess Where Trips Last Destination\" data-id=\"1999\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC_6543.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/syderoad.com\/dsc_6543\/\" class=\"wp-image-1999\" srcset=\"https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC_6543-1024x684.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC_6543-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC_6543-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC_6543.jpg 1400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/li><\/ul><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>To be honest our last stop at the outdoor park was our favourite location and it pains me so much that sharing any additional photos will immediately reveal the location and give away the surprise. Our Guess Where Trips itinerary truly saved the best for last and I really wish they allotted more time for this last stop. We arrived at this area by the late afternoon\/ early evening and honestly, we could have spent an extra hour here if we could!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignfull size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC_6102.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"684\" src=\"https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC_6102-1024x684.jpg\" alt=\"Guess Where Trips\" class=\"wp-image-1993\" srcset=\"https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC_6102-1024x684.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC_6102-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC_6102-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/DSC_6102.jpg 1400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"was-it-worth-it\">Was the trip worth it?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The short answer? Yes. We LOVED that we there is a service that takes the planning out of day trip. Something about opening a sealed envelope to reveal directions to your next destination is SO SATISFYING. I love it so much that I might even be tempted to re-create something like this next time I plan a day trip for ourselves!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For $55.00, Guess Where Trips takes the planning out of the trip and fully allows the entire party to enjoy the trip with minimal planning. Overall we found the itinerary to be:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>accurate with estimated driving times<\/li><li>accommodating &#8211; offering several meal options to cater to dietary restrictions or cravings<\/li><li>flexible &#8211; since this is self-guided you can stay at each stop for however long you&#8217;d like and pick and choose the optional items to best suit your day needs<\/li><li>dog-friendly &#8211; we didn&#8217;t try this with Limone since it was a humans-only date day, but after going through it, we&#8217;d love to try a new experience and bring Limone to the other dog-friendly options!<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>What I like the most about this service is that everyone on the trip gets to experience the joy of guessing where the next location will be and reacting to the place once we get there. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The price tag isn&#8217;t even a per-person experience &#8211; it&#8217;s the cost of each itinerary, meaning you&#8217;re not restricted to the number of people you take to experience it. Next time, I&#8217;d really love to do this again and bring Limone and my friends and family with us too! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em><span style=\"color:#5cd3fc\" class=\"has-inline-color\">[Update: October 9, 2021] <\/span>Surprise surprise! We loved it so much we bought one experience for our relatives and bought another to experience for ourselves again!  <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Two years later, we went on another fall road trip around Ontario with Guess Where Trips. Our verdict? <strong>Still freaking awesome!<\/strong> Other than the updated packaging and added itineraries, the heart and soul of Guess Where Trips remains the same. Guess Where Trips continues to consistently curate and deliver itineraries that:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>are educational<\/li><li>are fun to explore<\/li><li>support a plethora of local businesses<\/li><li>inspire and prove that local travel can be just as exciting and fun as international travel<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>My verdict remains the same! 100% recommend trying at least one trip, if not several! I promise you&#8217;ll discover some new hidden gems that you&#8217;ll love!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the theme of keeping things a surprise, I won&#8217;t be listing out any locations for updated Guess Where Trip pictures &#8211; but feel free to enjoy our new photos \ud83d\ude42 <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery alignwide columns-3 wp-block-gallery-4 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"683\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/DSF0253-683x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Abandoned Canadian Talc Mine Operation  - Part of Guess Where Trip's Outdoor Adventures and Scenic Roads\" data-id=\"4424\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/DSF0253.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/syderoad.com\/_dsf0253\/\" class=\"wp-image-4424\" srcset=\"https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/DSF0253-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/DSF0253-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/DSF0253-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/DSF0253-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/DSF0253-1366x2048.jpg 1366w, https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/DSF0253-1400x2100.jpg 1400w, https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/DSF0253.jpg 1867w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 683px) 100vw, 683px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"683\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/syderoad.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/DSF0178-683x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Forest Trail in one of Guess Where Trip's Itinerary - Outdoor Adventures &amp;
