Well, the 2007 season has officially started and it’s shaping up to be one of the best seasons we’ve ever had at O.A.R.S. People are taking off on their adventures every day and each day more ecstatic travelers call, write and email to let us know how much they enjoyed their trip. In some cases it’s the incredible scenery or the epic whitewater, in some cases it’s the sense of relief gained from getting away from it all, sometimes it’s reuniting with old friends, reconnecting with family and meeting new folks on the river, and a lot of times it’s the kind, genuine, knowledgeable and of course, fun guides. Almost always, however, it’s a combination of these things that make an O.A.R.S. vacation the experience of a lifetime.
As many of you return from your trips or get ready to embark on your next adventure, we want to thank you for choosing O.A.R.S. We know your time is valuable and you have hundreds of options when you travel, and we sincerely appreciate your descision to travel with O.A.R.S.
