Route help when you need it

Whether you are stuck on a gravel road decision or want a second opinion on a weekend itinerary, I am easy to reach. I read every message myself and usually reply within a day or two, depending on whether I am out on the road.

Email for detailed route questions

If you are planning a longer self-drive or need advice on a specific pass, send the details. Include your vehicle type and rough dates, and I will give you an honest read on road conditions and whether a detour is worth it.

Phone for quick checks

Best for last-minute questions about accommodation or a route you are already on. I am often driving during the day, so if I miss the call, leave a message and I will get back to you the same evening.

Emails are answered within two working days. Phone messages get a callback the same day if I am not on a trip. During peak holiday weeks, allow an extra day or two for route questions that need checking.

For route questions, include your starting point, how many days you have, and the kind of vehicle you drive. That helps me give you a more useful answer.

Route questions from readers

I read every message and answer as many as I can personally. Questions that come up often get turned into future posts, so your query might help other travellers planning the same stretch of road.
