Experience
Since 1994, Adventure Travel West, Inc.has been offering a wide range of tours to the beautiful National Parks. Our expertly crafted itineraries offer a small group experience to explore the vast National Parks and little-known wild spaces in the western U.S., Alaska and Hawaii. We do things a little differently. Even when visiting major parks, we venture into areas away from the large tourist sites. Accessing secluded vantage points enables us to gain a unique insight into these spectacular regions. Our itineraries draw upon some of the country’s most inspiring landscapes, incredible networks of trails, and stunning national parks, showcasing communities along the way.

Our excellent safety record, outstanding service, and commitment to responsible and sustainable travel practices guarantee you unsurpassed value for money.
Responsible Tourism
We believe in preserving nature for future generations. Humans have encroached on our national parks and wilderness areas in increasing numbers. We hope that the desire to preserve nature and revenue from eco-tourism will win over the short-term interests of big business.
We are acutely aware of the conflict between offering a long-haul travel product in times of concerns of global warming. We have ongoing discussion groups in the office trying to minimize our impact on the environment. We have come up with stringent rules of conduct for our tour groups that include a “Leave no trace” policy, buying locally, recycling, reducing emissions through group transport, and encouraging buying carbon credits. However, we fully understand that all of these measures do not really solve the problem that our industry and society have to face in the very near future. We do however believe that traveling in the world’s Wild Places restores the human spirit and gives us the motivation to continue to protect these magical realms from destruction.
