“We really had a blast! Good clean fun, great weather, good physical challenge, lovely food and wine, great vistas…..I definitely recharged my batteries and recovered from the rat race of academic life.” Deepak D., Guilford, Connecticut
Parallel's Principles:
Independent and Self-Paced: We like to think of Parallel trips as “Group Trips For People Who Don’t Love Group Trips.” You won’t be following a guide or on anyone else’s schedule. Catch a swim first thing, picnic where you would like, hike by yourself or with others – it’s all up to you! And in the evenings, we’ll have a glass of wine waiting for you before dinner – and most nights, you’ll do dinner where and with whom you’d like.
Easy Access: We know you don’t have an unlimited amount of time. We’ve designed our trips so that you’ll spend more time enjoying your location and less time getting to a remote location. We’ll take care of the logistics ahead of time and your bags during the day.
Authenticity: We choose our locations not only for the gorgeous trails, but also for the opportunities for rich engagement with the communities we pass through. We choose small hotels with real character and restaurants run by talented community members.
“My first trip of this kind and I am already dreaming of the next!” Nisha P.
