Caribbean Adventure Escapade

 

Featured in the October 2008 issue of

National Geographic Adventure

Join Paria Springs’ top guides on a new multisport / cultural romp through our vibrant islands, chosen by National Geographic Adventure Magazine as one of the best new tours of 2009, possibly because it starts with our mantra:
THIS HAS TO BE FUN!!!! 

You will follow paths used by Amerindians, Conquistadores, Pirates and Farmers. You will experience world class single track mountain biking, hiking through ancient rain forests, kayaking narrow channels through luxuriant swamps, kayak surfing the rolling ocean waves, snorkeling in psychedelically colored reefs, and delving into bat filled caves, while indulging in our unique music, food and culture born from an ancient history of being a true cultural melting pot and a burning desire to prefect the party.
