Check out our perfect partners for North America:<br />
Suntrek has been a leader in small group<br />
adventure tours in North America for almost<br />
30 years. You'll share amazing experiences with a small group of up<br />
to 13 international travellers, being whisked around in a customised<br />
maxi-van and accompanied by a Suntrek group leader. The small<br />
group size means you get to experience more of the local culture<br />
too, which isn't always possible in a larger group or by yourself. More<br />
than a trip, you'll get your accommodation, transport, expert guide,<br />
entrance fees and experiences all thrown in.<br />
Trip kitty: Where stated you contribute to a kitty, used to pay for<br />
some group meals. You'll pitch in to help shop for food and cook.<br />
Your trip leaders: All Suntrek leaders have graduated from an<br />
intensive training program which guarantees amazing knowledge.<br />
Transportation: Specially equipped vans are used with air-con and<br />
music players. Perfect to get you off the beaten track!<br />
Guaranteed departures: Regardless of the number of passengers,<br />
once your booking is confi rmed, we don't cancel your trip.<br />
Backpacker trips<br />
are excellent value<br />
- expect amazing<br />
experiences,<br />
but none of the<br />
inclusions that<br />
you may not want. You'll travel in groups of no<br />
more than 13 people in a private van. The group<br />
leader will off er advice, helping you to uncover<br />
the region's hidden gems. There will be plenty<br />
of free time and optional activities. Ideal for<br />
those seeking fun and independence with some<br />
support or those making the most of their time<br />
with minimum hassle and maximum experiences.<br />
backpacker camping: Most nights you'll be<br />
camping, with some exceptions in the cities<br />
where you'll be in hotels or hostels. Tents are<br />
provided but don't forget to BYO sleeping bag.<br />
backpacker lodging: Wake up in the wilderness<br />
but in the comfort of a hostel, hotel or rustic<br />
cabin. Don't forget your sleeping bag.<br />
Explorer is your style<br />
of travel if you want<br />
all the experiences<br />
with more inclusions, meals and creature<br />
comforts. You'll stay in hotels and lodges in<br />
the best locations. Along the way you'll really<br />
experience the destination up close. You'll mingle<br />
with locals and gain special insights from your<br />
leader. This isn't luxury travel but real world<br />
experiences with a softer landing.<br />
Thrilling adventures is<br />
the simplest way to<br />
describe these trips.<br />
As you'd expect, activity is the key - we're talking<br />
hiking central here. You don't need to be super<br />
fi t for Active trips, but they're ideal if you want a<br />
physical challenge, plenty of cultural interaction<br />
and incredible scenery.<br />
