Signature Vermont Wayfinders Private Guided Tour

About this activity

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 I'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 listed here are just the start; this truly is a signature tour, tailored to you and your small group.

Itinerary

1. Brownsville · 30 min

   We'll explore back roads well off the beaten path and check out some amazing views of Mount Ascutney in Brownsville and West Windsor, Vermont.

2. Reading · 60 min

   We'll explore back roads and hidden views around this town and others in the area. I select which towns based on where your home base is -- the tour truly starts the moment you get in the Bronco. You'll see: - beautiful stone walls - pastures with cows, horses, sheep or alpaca grazing - farms - dairy, horse, sheep, old and new! - quiet woods with beautiful foliage spring, summer and fall, of course! - small streams - pause a moment and just listen. - maple syrup lines crisscrossing a forest - and more, based on what we talk about before and during your tour

3. Plymouth · 30 min

   Another beautiful area to enjoy as we travel along on our tour. More dirt roads, pretty lakes, and nature abound here! We can add in optional stops at Plymouth Cheese or the Calvin Coolidge Homestead, just let us know!

4. Woodstock · 60 min

   The quintessential Vermont town! Depending on your preferences, we can take a long or short pause here. With shops and art galleries and plenty of photo opps, Woodstock is a perfect place to enjoy any day!

5. Barnard · 30 min

   Barnard is another town we may tour through, filled with beautiful farms, fields and woods and a pretty lake we can stop at for lunch or to stretch our legs.

6. Taftsville Covered Bridge · 30 min

   One of MANY covered bridges we'll drive through, stop to photograph and enjoy. This is a fairly well-known one, but I include bridges you won't find on any 'top 10' lists... they're quiet and off the beaten path, often allowing you to walk in, around and even under them!

7. Long Trail Brewing Company · 60 min

   If you'd like to have a sit-down lunch, Long Trail is a great example of where we might stop. In nice weather you can sit out on the deck overlooking the Ottauquechee River. Enjoy a flight of their beers if you'd like, I'm driving!

8. The Vermont Country Store · 45 min

   This is a favorite stop for many tour guests! Step back in time when you browse the shelves, find Vermont souvenirs, try some maple candy, enjoy an old-fashioned glass bottle of Coca-Cola.
