All of Ontario · day trips & weekend getaways
Forty tabs telling you forty things are "good value" isn't a plan — it's homework. Tell us the trip. We hand back exactly three options, each honestly scored, so cheap never has to mean you get what you pay for.
How it works
No endless list to dig through. No forty tabs of "good value." Just the three trips worth your Saturday.
Who's going, how far you'll drive, and what you're willing to spend. Thirty seconds — not a questionnaire.
One cheap-but-great. One pricier-but-worth-it. One we're honest about. Each scored on whether it's right for you, what it really costs, the hassle, and how it holds up — never just price.
A paced itinerary that respects your budget, with fun money set aside so one splurge never breaks the plan.
The flagship mechanic
A single badge for scanning, four checks underneath for believing it. We never flatten a listing into one number and hide the reasoning behind a tap.
Matches this traveler's ages, pace, and mobility — not a generic tourist average.
All-in for your exact party — parking, gear, food. Never just the sticker price.
Travel time, booking complexity, how far parking is from the actual thing.
How it holds up on a crowded Saturday or a bad-weather day — not just off-peak.
Splurge, safely
12% of every budget is set aside automatically as fun money — yours to spend on the ice cream stop or the closer parking lot, no guilt. It's on by default. You can make it smaller, but setting it to zero takes one extra tap, because everyone runs short when they're tired.
