Adventurous

Our biking and camping programs will challenge you in many ways. For many the experience will reshape the way you see yourself and the world.

Active

All of our adventures are designed for beginner to intermediate bike riders and outdoors enthusiasts. We cater programs to meet the abilities of young people ages 14 and older. We provide the bikes, camping equipment and logistical support. Although most of the people on our programs have never traveled by bicycle, you need to know how to ride a bike.

Environmental

We practice and teach about environmental stewardship through hands-on camp lessons, service projects, journaling, and post-trip initiatives. We provide you with the tools to explore and understand the environment and teach you about ways to safeguard it wisely.

Educational

Travel changes the way you see the world. We expect that everyone will share their experience once they return home through presentations and community initiatives.

For students, Many high schools and colleges provide credit for our program. Ask your guidance counselor if your trip would qualify for credit.

For the Science Teacher

Want to make science even more exciting? Learn about the unique environments of the Arctic Circle or Altiplano regions of Argentina. Visit an observatory and local farms where science is practiced in the day-to-day activities of the people we meet.

For the Spanish Teacher

Immerse your students in the Spanish language and the rich life of Argentina, Spain or the Dominican Republic.

For the History Teacher

Unique opportunities to study history and culture abound in the countries we visit.

For the Physical Education Teacher

What a better way to promote a healthy and active lifestyle than to go on a bike and camping trip.

For the Outdoor Education Teacher

Challenge a group of students like they have never been challenged before by putting them into a foreign culture on a fully self contained bicycle expedition. Teach students best practice camping and wilderness skills, develop new team-building strategies, and show them a remote destination from the seat of a bike.
