Day-tripper
A day trip is a visit to a tourist destination or visitor attraction from a person's home, hotel, or hostel in the morning, returning to the same lodging in the evening. The day trip is a form of recreational travel and leisure to a location that is close enough to make a round-trip within a day but does not require an overnight stay.

A caregiver may take a day trip from their home to return to their children or pets. History In medieval times a destination for such a trip would be religious (to a nearby shrine) or commercial (for example, to a seasonal fair).
