This trip is offered as a custom, semi-private adventure
Our trips are custom, planned just for you. And these tours are somewhat private, so you’re not in a crowd. You’ll have your personal Guide for the duration of the trip but will at times be joining others for some of the activities. For example, whitewater rafting will be with one of our partner operators and there will be other guests on that adventure. At Alpenglow Luxury Camping you’ll meet other guests but will have privacy at your tent and in reserved times for the hot tub. We’d be happy to talk with you more about the private nature of our trips.
