Start with someone who’s already been there. We’re not trying to cover every destination on earth. We share the trips we actually take, including the places we eat, the roads we drive, the hotels and Airbnbs we stay in, and the attractions we spend our own money to visit. If we recommend something, it’s because we’d genuinely tell a friend to make time for it. ### Find places worth the stop Use our destination guides to find attractions, beaches, neighbourhoods, restaurants and experiences we genuinely enjoyed. ![Find places worth the stop](https://d2txn9w4uujjus.cloudfront.net/images/019f9027-b5ca-77ba-88ac-356cc33235c8/357e4a933d8d51903503c1c235cff59194dbdb43--960w.jpeg) ### Plan road trips with fewer surprises We share the practical stuff too: routes, driving experiences, stops along the way, parking, travel logistics and things we learned once we were actually there. ![Plan road trips with fewer surprises](https://d2txn9w4uujjus.cloudfront.net/images/019f9027-b5ca-77ba-88ac-356cc33235c8/2db0060ef746d1b6958428cd1511c2388f016d50--960w.jpeg) ### See the trip before you book it Our YouTube videos, photos and firsthand reviews show what places really looked and felt like when we visited. ![See the trip before you book it](https://d2txn9w4uujjus.cloudfront.net/images/019f9027-b5ca-77ba-88ac-356cc33235c8/881b923b4c3518d39454f2089eed76094528f739--960w.jpeg) Latest Video ## **Watch Our Latest Adventure** Our newest video is out now.

We share travel guides, road trip ideas, food stops and videos based on places we have actually visited. A lot of our content focuses on Prince Edward Island, Newfoundland and Atlantic Canada, with more trips across Canada, the US and beyond. ### How are your guides different from other travel sites? We keep it personal and honest. If we recommend a place, it is because we went there ourselves and think it is worth your time. You get real opinions, photos and videos instead of copy that sounds like a tourism ad. ### Can your guides help me plan a road trip? Yes. Whether you are driving from Ontario to PEI, heading to Newfoundland, planning an Atlantic Canada loop or mapping out a US road trip, our guides can help you figure out where to stop, eat and spend more time. ### Do Darcy and Grace run a business outside of travel? Yes. Outside of Darcy and Grace, Darcy runs [RepuLinks](https://www.repulinks.com/), an organic link building and digital PR company. It is the business that gave us the flexibility to travel more and to keep building this site alongside everything else we do. ### Do you cover dog-friendly travel too? We do. Lily Mae, our black pug, comes on many of our trips, so we also share dog-friendly beaches, road trip ideas and other places that may work well if you are travelling with your dog. ### Can I watch your travel videos as well? Absolutely. We share [YouTube videos](https://www.youtube.com/@darcyandgrace) with destination guides, road trips, restaurants, local experiences and the occasional Lily Mae moment. If you like seeing a place before you plan your trip, our videos are a good place to start. ### How can I keep up with new guides and trips?
