The Scenic Route Maine Tours
Khaled and Jen are both adventurers at heart. Khaled grew up in the deserts of the Middle East while Jen was raised on the farmlands of central Maine, yet both share the same wanderlust and love of travel. They have traveled both solos and together throughout the world. On a whim, Khaled packed his bags and headed for Juneau, Alaska; Jen soon followed. There, he sold shor ... More e excursions to cruise ship passengers and Jen spent her time as a tour guide. As luck had it, this set the blueprint for the next great adventure. After four great summers in Alaska, they came back home full of experience, enthusiasm, and a family; thus The Scenic Route Maine Tours & The Blue Lobster Gift Shop were born. Our small group style means a lot to us. It allows for more interaction, exceptional service, and an opportunity for us to answer any questions and provide personal recommendations. Our stellar TripAdvisor reviews prove that small groups and excellent value, combined with premium quality are a great mix. Other companies use larger vehicles with more people which allows for little to no interaction. With our local and knowledgeable guides, you can enjoy traditional highlights of the area and get a backstage view of traditional, daily Maine life. Join us and discover the Scenic Route’s 'small group' difference. We’re here to make your Portland experience a memorable one!

Happy Trails Tours
Happy Trails Tours, Inc. (HTT) is so much more than a travel company. Even though it started as a regional motor coach vacation business, it has experienced tremendous growth as its reputation has spread beyond its original boundaries. The customer database has expanded to include the entire state of Minnesota, the surrounding states, and even Canada. Located in Forbes, a ... More small rural community in the heart of Minnesota Iron Range, you can find a buzzing office that now Picture accommodates Diane Olds, the owner, and four employees dedicated to providing amazing experiences within the continental United States and beyond. You only need to travel with Happy Trails once to become a member of its ever-increasing family. The company has come a long way since the humble little home office, located in the residence of Marge Ellis and her husband Grant. In 1983, the current phone number for Happy Trails Tours was the personal home phone number of the Ellis’. All conference and business meetings took place around the kitchen table and no official business hours existed. If one called looking for a tour, the phone would be answered by whoever was closest. Even Marge’s husband Grant would take his turn. Despite its modest beginnings, HTT has become a success and it all started because eleven wonderful local ladies wanted to sing in Nashville. And there is more to that story.
