Katie was incredible. She understood perfectly what I needed, provided multiple options for me to explore and answered all my questions. Thanks Katie I feel so much better, clearer and exited about my trip after speaking with you. Without your guidance I would have been totally lost.

I think this one conversation saved me 8 hours of scanning Reddit to piece together a plan. This is the best idea.

I was planning a family trip to Yellowstone and had no idea which hikes would be ok for a five-year-old (but still fun for me). We only had a day there and I wanted to make sure I got it right. Now, I feel confident we're hitting the right stuff.

The call was informative and a good time. The TripGuide sent to us after the call was even more detailed and helpful than I expected. We shared with all our friends coming on the trip and they loved it too.

What's in an Outdoorable TripGuide?

What’s in a TripGuide?

After your call, your expert puts together a personalized TripGuide—crafted just for you, based on everything you talked about.

It’s thoughtful, flexible, and actually useful. The kind of thing you’ll send to your travel buddies with a “trust me, just read this.”

What you’ll get:
  • A day-by-day trip approach — tailored to your comfort level, goals, and timeline
  • Trail and activity recs — with links, logistics, local tips, and real insight from someone who’s been there
  • Meal stops and hidden gems — from the best post-hike coffee to the secret bar with the roaring fireplace
  • A custom map — so you can actually see how everything fits together
  • Names and contacts — for that off-menu stargazing experience or private hot spring access
    It’s editable.

It’s shareable. Because outdoor knowledge shouldn’t be gatekept.
