Just did the Cape Ann Self-Guided Driving Tour!

I took the plunge and did this driving tour with some friends last weekend. We started in Gloucester and made our way to Rockport, and wow, the views were insane! The stories about the Perfect Storm were super captivating, and we really felt the history of the area. Definitely a good mix of fun and education! Just a heads up though, we got a bit lost at one point, so keep an eye on the map! Overall, highly recommend for anyone looking to explore the coast!

Gift idea for my parents: Cape Ann Driving Tour?

I’m thinking of getting my parents the self-guided driving tour for their anniversary. They’ve been wanting to visit Gloucester and Rockport for ages! But I’m a little worried if they’d enjoy it or if it’s too much driving. Anyone done it with older parents?
