Tracks & Trails (3 testimonials)

In business since

Tracks & Trails specializes in planning road trips throughout the western half of the US and Canada.  When we recommend a destination, you can be sure that we've been there.

Wanderlust is a prerequisite for employment with Tracks & Trails. There's only one way to get the real scoop on roads, trails, accommodations and restaurants.  We also keep tabs on what's new from our broad network of people who live and work in the places you'll visit. We read everything we can get our hands on: brochures, magazines, Web sites. And we get lots of great ideas and feedback from our clients. All of this knowledge goes into each Tracks & Trails Western Driving Adventure.
 
Dan Wulfman & Sheri Ballard - Founders of Tracks & Trails

In retrospect, it's no surprise that our lives together began on the road. One American, one Canadian, we met on a bus in rural Spain during respective career escapes in 1989 and were married a year later. After working for big companies like IBM, McCann-Erickson Advertising, Deere & Co., Playtex, Mattel Toys, and the American Red Cross, we eventually decided that two weeks' vacation just wasn't enough. We had a big yard sale, bought a little travel trailer, hitched it to our old Land Rover and set off to explore our two countries for a while.

Our brief sabbatical morphed into a life-altering 2-year journey, taking us from the Arctic Circle to Guatemala and countless wonderful places in between. We tried to reenter the fast lane for a while but couldn't bear it. So, in 1998 we formed Tracks & Trails to help other travelers see the best of the west - in days or weeks, not years. Our sons, Chase (11) and Gabe (7), now do quality control to insure that every Tracks & Trails adventure delivers on our promise to create indelible family memories.

Having tried everything from 5-star hotels to a tarp under the stars, our favorite way to travel these days is with an RV (Recreational Vehicle). It's a portable wilderness base camp for all sorts of fun family activities. We look forward to sharing the magic that we've found out here and sending you home with wonderful memories. Delighted customers are what make this all worthwhile.
