Could you be the ambassador for group day trips (local)?
An ambassador is the friendly face at the door: there a quarter of an hour early, greeting people by name where they can, making sure nobody stands on their own. It's low-key, and ambassadors get perks along the way, including a discount on Plus membership.

We're still finding the right travel & day trips to bring you.
Browse everythingTravel & Day Trips at 2nd Summit are about shared experiences — not racing through a checklist of sights. Think low-stress outings with good company, room for conversation, and time to actually enjoy where you are.
We’re curating small-group day trips and travel-focused gatherings that work whether you’re easing back into travel or already have a well-worn passport. No pressure to be the “adventurous one” — just thoughtful options to explore new places, at a pace that feels right to you.
As we shape this category in each market we serve, we’re focused on approachable, well-planned experiences that keep the logistics simple so you can focus on the people and the place.
Easy, well-planned local outings with a small group — great if you enjoy discovery without doing all the planning yourself.
Gentle travel days built around taking photos together — ideal for curious beginners and enthusiasts who enjoy seeing details others miss.
Supportive groups for people who usually travel on their own but want shared plans, safety in numbers, and flexible space for independence.
Conversation-driven groups that explore global destinations together — perfect if you enjoy planning, swapping stories, and shared itineraries.
Relaxed, small-group river and cruise travel with built-in company — suited to those who like comfort, scenery, and unhurried days on the water.
Casual caravans and route-sharing meetups for people who love the open road and want company, coffee stops, and good playlists along the way.
Lightly structured weekend escapes with a friendly group — ideal if you want a change of scenery without the work of planning every detail.
When routines shift, our sense of adventure shifts too. You may care less about ticking off famous sights and more about how a place feels, who you’re with, and whether there’s time to linger over a long conversation.
Thoughtful day trips and small-group travel make space for that. You still get the spark of a new view or a different neighborhood — just without the pressure to turn every outing into a production.
There’s something about being on the road, on the water, or on a walking tour that invites conversation. You’re side-by-side, not staring across a table — it’s easier to talk, or to sit in companionable quiet.
Travel & Day Trips with 2nd Summit are designed around that feeling. Small groups, easy pacing, and moments built in for shared meals or coffee mean you come home with memories and familiar faces, not just photos.
Planning can be the hardest part of getting out the door — picking routes, tickets, timing, parking, and backup plans. For many people, that friction is what keeps them home.
Curated trips remove a layer of hassle so you can enjoy the experience. You still have choices and flexibility, but the key details are thought through ahead of time, which makes saying “yes” much simpler.
You don’t have to cross an ocean to feel like you’ve gone somewhere. A new town an hour away, a historic site you’ve never visited, or a different neighborhood can all offer that same sense of curiosity and perspective.
Local day trips are an easy way to stay engaged with the world around you — especially in and around places like Denver and Fort Collins — without packing a suitcase or rearranging your life.

Something you love that you'd like to share with people — a walk you know, a table you'd set, a thing you'd teach. Tell us and we'll talk it through.
2nd Summit focuses on small, friendly groups with clear plans and plenty of flexibility. Expect a relaxed pace, time to look around, and space for conversation — not a rushed, flag-following tour. Each trip will outline what’s planned, how much structure there is, and where you’ll have free time.
Most Travel & Day Trips we curate lean toward moderate activity — think walking at a conversational pace, standing during tours, and getting in and out of vehicles. When we feature more physical outings, we’ll describe the typical day in plain language so you can decide what fits your comfort level.
Absolutely. These trips are built with solo participants in mind, including people who are used to traveling independently and those trying it for the first time. Hosts and guides help with introductions so it feels natural to join in, whether you’re chatty by nature or a bit more reserved.
Details will vary by outing, but a good rule of thumb is comfortable walking shoes, weather-appropriate layers, water, and any medications or essentials you rely on. We’ll share practical notes in advance — such as whether meals are included, how much walking to expect, and any tickets or IDs you’ll need.
Costs depend on what’s included — for example, transportation, entry fees, guides, or meals. Some local outings may be relatively low-cost, while more involved getaways or cruise-based experiences will be higher. Each specific trip listing will clearly outline pricing and what is or isn’t covered so there are no surprises.
We focus on experiences that feel manageable, welcoming, and worth the effort to get out the door. That means thoughtful itineraries, trusted partners, and group sizes that allow for real conversation. As this category grows, we’ll continue to listen to member feedback in places like Denver and Fort Collins and shape offerings around what actually works for this stage of life.
