Allow me to introduce myself…
My name is Christopher Rudder, and I am the genius, billionaire, playboy, and philanthropist behind Rudderless Travel. Ok, ok, so I’m not a billionaire, playboy or philanthropist, but I am a genius regarding short trips, road trips and day trip itineraries.
Together with my partner Gordana Grubor, our goal is to create fun and informative itineraries that are not only logistically sound but include the perfect balance of must-see sites, off-the-beaten-path gems and foodie hotspots.
