    Physical Activity level

    Moderate - The air is thinner at higher altitudes so all physical activity can be a challenge. You should plan to walk/hike for this tour. It is not a stationary/in-car experience beyond driving to a destination, which we will then begin our excursions outside of the vehicles.

    Activities

    This trip's physical activity is rated Low. Everyone should be capable of walking between 1-3 miles carrying a water bottle or backpack weighing less than 5lbs. At higher elevations, it is common to become short of breath walking.

    Your comfort level is our priority so we cater our route, destinations and plans based on your group(all adults, adults+kids, etc). Our guides will personally call you after booking to outline and cover these important details of your group to ensure everyone has an amazing trip. There is no such thing as 1 size fits all excursions, so our focus is on personalization.
