About this experience
This tour is built just for you! You provide what you'd love to see and do (scenery, farms, photography, food, artisans, etc.) and what you'd rather skip and we'll create a customized itinerary for your day.
We'll travel in a built-for-back roads Bronco, with a (weather permitting) top-down, open air experience you won't soon forget! As much as possible, we keep off the main routes and stick to dirt roads where traffic doesn't exist, the scenery is breathtaking, and hidden views abound. There will be plenty of opportunities to pause and take it all in!
Be sure to check out the Vermont Wayfinders website for more information on tours and availability, including add-on options like heading to the top of Killington or going for a horse-drawn carriage ride.
The places provided in 'what to expect' are just the start! This truly is a signature tour, tailored to you and your small group!
