FRANCE:
In Paris, we explore the Louvre, Eiffel Tower and authentic French cuisine. In the South of France, we enjoy a challenging night hike up the region's highest peak for an unforgettable sunrise. In Cap d'Ail on the French Riviera, we spend two days at an amazing hostel perched on the Mediterranean Sea. Nearby, in the French Alps, we experience traditional European rock climbing.
SPAIN:
Crossing through the Pyrenees to the village of Sort, Spain's adventure capital, we raft in Class III & IV rapids, and give back to the area with an environmental service project. We visit Barcelona, home to world-renowned art, culture and beaches.
Italy:
Canyoning in the Alps, our #1 rated activity, consists of rappelling, climbing and swimming through turquoise streams and pools beneath narrow rock walls. We explore the region that Michaelangelo and Leonardo Da Vinci called home; the markets, museums and magnificence of Florence and Siena. Biking through Tuscany affords us panoramic views of Florence. Our last night is spent in the 13th century medieval mountain village of Labro surrounded by cobblestone streets, towers, castles, and breathtaking views.
