This was the trip of a lifetime for me. Our local guide Beau was outstanding and looked after us really well. He also provided excellent commentary on the local geology, flora and fauna. I would highly recommend this trip.

For someone who feared hiking hours a day and worried my eighteen year old son would dislike the trip, things couldn’t have gone better. Everything was well thought out and organized. Hotels were beautiful and dinners out memorable. Our leader was kind, patient, knowledgeable, and we all enjoyed the four day adventure. I can’t stop thinking about it. My son asked me at the airport, “where to next?” I’m so happy I stepped out of my comfort zone and created this special memory with him. I’m so grateful.
