A few travel finds for families who love the open road.
With many families jumping on the RV bandwagon and exploring national parks, those with young kids will need some wheels that survive rough roads and rugged paths. Guava’s Roam stroller has all the features of a traditional jogging stroller — and more.
The Roam is a two-in-one crossover stroller designed to fit any lifestyle. Its compact fold and superior performance make it a great option for hitting the trails or grocery store — all in one trip.
Feel free to off-road with the Roam, and when you’re done, swoon over its compact fold- storing 50% smaller than traditional joggers. The rubber tires flaunt foam-filled technology that reduces the possibility of going flat.
