John and his team, Leslie and Michelle, are caring, committed and knowledgable guides; always ready to assist or go out of their way to meet our interests and preferences.

John and his crew did a wonderful job of planning my birthday weekend! There were 12 of us with different skill levels, ability's and interests. They were able to challenge all of us...but not too much! The food was outstanding! The accommodations had character and traditional new England charm.

I spent four days hiking and kayaking with John and his crew, and it was a great experience. John meets with you each morning to plan the day, so you have lots of flexibility to hike more or less depending on your mood and the weather. Lesley and Michelle are both knowledgable about the trails and a lot of fun....

We got so much more than we expected! Our guide, John, took us to explore a local ice cave that required some challenging maneuvers to get...
