A Vacation So Authentic, Tourists May Ask You for Directions.
When you hit the trail on a Self-Guided adventure, you’re armed with route notes written by insiders who know the area. Without a large group of traveling companions, you’ll be able to blend in with locals, make new friends, and discover the highlights that guidebooks miss. Want to know the best local spot for dinner? Check your route notes or ask your friendly local innkeeper for a recommendation.
