Brew,Bites & Everything Nice

We received the trip as a gift and thoroughly enjoyed the
day. Every merchant we visited was very receptive. Having
two brewers on the tour was one too many after a long day.
The Hummingbird chocolate factory is overrated and items
over priced. The Cartwright Springs brewery owner was
awesome as was he staff at the general store in Pakenham.
I would certainly recommend this as a gift.

Great little getaway.

Loved it and enjoyed seeing and learning things we didn’t know about the locations. Great fun to open each envelope.
We did this as a celebration for our first anniversary which is paper. The package was part of the theme with the envelopes and booklets all part of the day.
Highly recommend this excursion for visitors and locals!

You can be as active on each leg as you would like to be.

Happy anniversary!! We're so happy you chose to celebrate it with one of our trips!

Fun Spontaneous Adventure

It was a beautiful Saturday and we had nothing planned so we decided to finally do our Guess Where Trip we had received as a Christmas gift. It took us to places and gave us activities to do that we likely would not have explored otherwise. You can do some or all of the activities. It's your choice. The folks at Cartwright Springs Brewery were very familiar with the trip and gave us great advice for stage 3. They said to do the stops in reverse order as it made more sense geographically. It was great advice that saved us a little of unnecessary driving which actually gave us more time to spend at the attractions. It also positioned us well when it was time to move on to stage 4. Not sure why it's not planned that way in the package. We also ran into a couple other issues like a road at Blakeney Rapids closed for construction and the Diefenbunker required pre-booking as the day we went was their "Open Doors" free day and was totally booked. Still, all in all, it was a fun adventure that gave us places to revisit with friends and family.
