Blackout - Travel - 300

Objective:

Go on a trip that you're completely "in the dark" about until the last minute.

Details:

That’s right! It’s time to go on vacation! The catch? You won’t know where you’re going or what you’re doing there until you’re well on your way!

1) Choose a length of time for your trip. Will you go on a week long vacation? A weekend getaway? A shorter day trip?

IMPORTANT: In order to qualify for this objective, your trip must be at least eight hours long.

2) “Hire” a trip planner. Enlist a close friend or family member that you trust to plan your trip for you. Choose someone that both knows you well and who is good at planning. After all, they’ll be responsible for your trip itinerary! Explain this objective to your planner and make sure they know to keep the trip’s destination and itinerary a surprise.

Alternatively, you could hire a company that specializes in planning surprise vacations.

3) Go on your trip!

5)  Share a photo taken while on your trip and post it on Instagram or Twitter with the tag #QuestScouts. You can also share your experiences in our Facebook group.

6) In the comment section below, answer the following questions:

  • Who planned your trip?

  • Where did you go?

  • How long did you go for?

  • What did you do while there?

  • Did you have a good time?

  • How did you feel about no knowing your destination prior to being on your way there?

  • Would you go on another “mystery trip” in the future?
