Welcome to Wayfaring Views

EXPLORE BEYOND THE OBVIOUS.

Sometimes the “must see” sights, simply aren’t. Wayfaring Views will help you explore beyond the obvious and the mundane so that you can find extraordinary, cool, weird and unforgettable travel experiences. 

Sometimes going beyond the obvious means getting off the beaten path (like this corner of Patagonia that is positively stuffed with marine mammals). Sometimes it means spending more time in a place that others usually breeze through (like London’s Shoreditch neighborhood). Sometimes it means seeking out something truly weird (like the punk rock museum in Reykjavik) or kitschy (like extra large donuts and zombies in Las Vegas).

Give yourself permission to buck the prevailing herd mentality and craft yourself some truly cool itineraries and your travels will be the richer for it.

Alternative Itineraries
