Below is the proposed itinerary for the trip. As is true on any adventure travel trip, plans for any specific day may be modified due to weather considerations, unforeseen circumstances, new opportunities, and group interests.
We had a very welcoming cohesive small group enabling us to get to know each other as well as our guides. The activities were great. I loved being on the guides home turf (or former home turf), how they knew so much about the area and the connections they had. Honestly, I would recommend adding another day. I would have liked a bit more time in Truckee to see the museum as well as the town. I’m not sure what there is to do at the Olympic Village, but an activity there might be another option.
I have always wanted to see Lake Tahoe area. I got to share it with my best friend.
The group, and the paddleboarding.
Having a delicious breakfast and coffee lakeside followed by SUP instruction by Anik Wild was inspirational and gave me confidence on the board. Paddle boarding on the clear waters of Lake Tahoe was a true highlight of the trip.
The multi-sport aspect is a great plus. With airfare so expensive, I wish the actual trip had been longer. It would have been nice to have another day on the water. I had not paddle boarded before and would love to have had a second chance to practice/enjoy the experience.
I was able to share the trip with my sister who had never hiked. She found that she really enjoyed hiking and paddle boarding.
I loved traveling and adventuring with a fabulous group of like-minded women in an amazing setting!
Variety of activities, good guides, nice mix of travelers.
It was an amazing opportunity to meet Anik Wild and hear her inspiring story.
My goal for this trip was to do SUP and kayak with some instruction and a group. Both experiences were wonderful. I now feel like I can rent a SUP or a kayak when the opportunity presents, even if I am solo. I also liked the yoga, the hike, the lodging, the relatively short drive times and the wonderful guides. This is the first AGC trip I've done that was not a hard core level 4 or 5 hiking trip. I will definitely consider another more relaxed wellness type trip in the future if it has at least one major activity per day with a second optional activity. I loved traveling in two normal mini-vans and not the big 14 person bus; a small detail but the vans were much more comfortable. Re dinner on the last night, I would have preferred a low key dinner at a locals spot or somewhere closer to the lodging as opposed to to the vibe at a Tahoe lake side establishment with a bar menu that was 3x larger than the food menu. It was not the right vibe for our group. PS my margarita was great but it was hard to talk which you want to do on the last night.
Small intimate group, wellness retreat, location, guides, women, and activities
Fantastic guides. Beautiful scenery. I’ve never been to this area before, so I was happy to see and experience this part of California.
There were only 4 participants - everyone got their own rooms, we all got to know each other better than if there was a larger group and both guides were amazing women that had different talents that added to our Tahoe experience.
I loved the relaxed pace in such a beautiful venue. It was a nice change from the usual jam-packed trip schedule.
