Frequently Asked Questions
How is this different from a printed guidebook? +
A guidebook goes in-depth on a certain destination — you read it, research it, and then formulate your vacation plan. Our itinerary is different.
It starts with a 7 (ish) minute video to help you understand your way around the island, where things are located, and what experiences are available. Then we map our excursion days.
These days take you on a carefully planned route to one part of the island, making stops for meals, beaches, and places of interest. Each excursion day has an overview page with links to Google Maps directions, what to pack for the day, and any reservations to make in advance.
This itinerary is meant to save you time while trip planning and help you make the most of your limited vacation time.
When should I buy this? +
Honestly, now. Unlike a guidebook, we publish regular updates. With so many things changing, we want to give you the most up-to-date information to have a great trip. These itineraries are reviewed and updated two times per year. Once you purchase an itinerary, you’ll have access to the itinerary and all updates for the next 11 months.
Is this a physical itinerary? Digital? How do I use it? +
This is a digital product. Minutes after purchasing, a link to download the itinerary will be sent to your email. You can print it, but we suggest downloading it to your computer and your phone. There are a number of hyperlinks in the itinerary to link you to directions, restaurant websites, and activity operators. So it’s much easier to use it digitally!
Do you offer custom trip planning? +
Erica and I do not offer custom trip planning. We are proud of our itineraries, and thousands of happy customers will agree! The Wayfinder Itineraries are better than a custom itinerary, as we provide alternative options on the excursion days. Pick family-friendly or adventure activities. You can also refer to the Quick Hits section to customize where to eat, find a different beach, or go to a snorkel spot. You can always email us with questions and suggestions, too!
