• Private transportation

Privately guided tours lasting 3-4 hours offer a delightful glimpse into Vermont’s picturesque backroads, quaint villages, and local favorites, all within a relaxed and compact experience. Led by a local expert, participants gain insider insights into some of the best places to visit and discover even more scenic routes to explore as they journey to favorite spots in and around the Connecticut River Valley of Vermont. The tour offers various themes, such as ‘Bridges and Brews’, ‘Antiques and Artisans’, and ‘Ridges and Rivers’, with starting points in Woodstock, Ludlow, or Springfield, Vermont.

This is an ideal way to explore for those short on time, who enjoy a scenic detour, or seek a more budget-friendly private tour. Participants will still benefit from a local expert guide, a meticulously planned route, and ample time to enjoy the sights—just in a more compact, enjoyable package.
