Customer Reviews
- Rebecca· November 19th, 2023The day we drove across the border from Canada into the US. It was a busy day but superb, from the walk to a viewpoint over Lake Willoughby to the trip up the cable car, Flume Gorge and a final drive along the Kancamangus Highway, it was epic!Show moreReview collected by Explore!
- Pete· November 15th, 2023Great trip & guide Anthony. Saw twice as much in half the time that I could do myself. Perfectly timed for sunrise & sunset views. Optimal site to view eclipse, accompanied by 2 astronomers & 2 telescopes. Enjoyed the optional helicopter ride over Grand Canyon.Show more
- Judith· November 9th, 2023Good trip, great leader, nice hotels. My only complaint, and one I have made before, is that the hikes were totally inadequately described. Saying a hike is 5k and omitting to mention that there is a 800 ft elevation gain is not only useless, it is misleading.Show more
