Maine Woods and Water Adventure
Maine Woods and Water Adventure
Our Woods and Water Adventure features hiking, camping and canoeing along the border of Maine and New Hampshire deep in the Maine Wilderness. Our base camp will be on Lake Umbagog. We'll canoe the lake and a nearby river. Not a paddler? No worries! We'll teach you! We'll start easy with some skills on flat water, and when we are ready, we'll move up to some more challenging water. Wildlife abounds in the area so we are likely to see a moose! When we aren't on the water, we'll go for a hike. No light pollution here, so the stars should be fantastic!
What's new about this type of Adventure Bus tour?
Although our new basecamp tours will be shorter and have smaller groups, they will not be lacking in substance! They will be more intimate and immersive, giving you a chance to catch your breath and really take in your surroundings. We'll cover less driving miles with less set up and take down.
What will be the same?
Our Basecamp tours will still be flexible, offer beautiful destinations, great food and foster that AB camaraderie and family bond we've come to love!
Like all Adventure Bus tours, we leave some things off the itinerary to keep it a surprise. (Think freshly made donuts!)
