Hotel Accommodations:

The hotel accommodations are included in the price of this trip but this price is based on two people sharing a room. You will have your own bed and are only asked to share the room with one other person.

If you are registering with others you can let us know how you would like to be paired up but if you are enrolling alone, we can help find you a suitable roommate. Adventures are always best shared with others!

Want to guarantee your own room? We have included an optional selection at checkout that will cover the extra cost of reserving your very own room. Resident $30 / Non-Resident $41
