Pickup is offered from anywhere within a 1-hour radius of the park; contact the operator at [email protected] with questions about your specific pickup location.
Can we adjust the start time or trip length?
Start times and trip length are customizable to your group’s needs. Trips can be shortened; requests to lengthen a trip should be emailed to [email protected] as additional rates may apply.
What will we see on the trip?
Private trips are customized to your interests and abilities; you may see park highlights, hike trails tailored to your group, or visit off-the-beaten-path locations—the guide will plan the day in advance with you.
What's for lunch?
Guides coordinate with you before the trip to understand dietary needs and provide a gourmet picnic sourced from local delis and grocers, which may include sandwiches, salads, fruit, and treats.
