Choose how you want to have fun.

Some trips are designed for rest and relaxation, while others are designed to take you out of your comfort zone. Activity Level Ratings let you know exactly what to expect before you sign up. This helps build confidence, reduces surprises, and ensures everyone has a good time. 

Each trip will have its physical activity level rating clearly marked based on the amount of physical exertion it requires.

The rating system is simple: The higher the level, the more challenging the trip.
