I'm diving deeper with Wayfarer, creating richer, more immersive experiences that connect us to the heart of every destination. It all started with a simple question: why take this journey in the first place? Read more about the origins of Wayfarer and where we're headed next.

There was SO MUCH TO KNOW and the history of the area, the culture and the politics.

Hello Wayfarers!

This was an amazing year for the blossoms, the bees, Modesto and Wayfarer. About 350 carloads and a couple busloads of Wayfarers journeyed through the orchards, making this the most active year yet. The Almond Blossom Cruise has joined the list of epic California drives that includes the Redwoods, Malibu/PCH, and Sunset Boulevard.

For those of you who made it out to the Almond Blossoms this year - what did you think? Are images of almond blossoms and the green rolling hills coming up when you close your eyes? Can you still hear the sound of the buzzing bees doing their work?

If so, then you might want to check out some of the amazing paintings and photos that were inspired by the Almond Blossom Cruise. Wayfarer and Visit Modesto teamed up to bring the amazing Los Angeles based artist, Edem Elesh, up to the almond orchards to do some plein air paintings.

Here’s Edem painting out in the orchards, as well as the three paintings of his that we’re listing for sale in our virtual store.

Amazing work, right? Pick up one of his works through the link in our bio before they all get snatched up!

Also - while you’re at it, we have some other treats from Modesto in our virtual store - gift baskets galore!

Finally - if you enjoyed the Almond Blossom Cruise - you should definitely check out our Yolo Tour…which starts in Davis, CA and journeys through farm country - guiding you to delicious wineries and a lavender farm before ending in picturesque Winters.

See you on the road, Wayfarers!

Travel + Leisure called out Wayfarer for creating the Almond Blossom Cruise with Visit Modesto! Kudos to Todd Aaronson and Team! More to come!

"The Almond Blossom Cruise, a partnership between Visit Modesto and Wayfarer, is an audio tour anyone can download for $14.99, which provides turn-by-turn directions for where to go to see the best blooms, as well as stories from locals, and a few non-almond stops to make along the way. The entire audio tour is introduced by none other than Timothy Olyphant, a (nearly) lifelong local of Modesto."
