Charming Inns
Sleep at a grand, turn-of-the-century lodge or a quaint Bed & Breakfast. The next night stay deep in the forest at an isolated alpine retreat or a secluded eco-lodge. No matter where, we ensure that you stay in the finest accommodations, carefully chosen for a distinctive appeal and character. Best of all, our small group size allows for stays in the best rooms at the smaller inns and hideaways, where our hosts treat us like family.

For your comfort, all rooms are double occupancy with a private bath unless otherwise noted in the itinerary. If you prefer to stay alone, a single occupancy room will be reserved for an additional fee. For solo travelers requesting a roommate, The World Outdoors guarantees you never have to pay an extra rooming charge if you register 90 days prior to your trip's departure -- even if we don't find you a roommate and you end up with a private room.

"It was an absolute joy and exceeded all my expectations in terms of the trails we hiked, the glorious scenery, the delightful inns, delicious and healthy food, and terrific company." D. Diener, VA

"I didn't know what to expect. Now I do. Expect great scenery, a great guide and no worries about lodgings, meals or getting from here to there. It was the trip of a lifetime!" D. Francis, CO

Carefree Camping
Warm up to a crackling fire as you settle into the silence of your campsite. Wake up to the aroma of fresh-brewed coffee and a hot breakfast while watching the glow of the sunrise. It's all part of the joy of sleeping under the stars.

Just because you are camping doesn't mean you are roughing it -- camping with The World Outdoors is a carefree and comfortable affair. Your guides take care of all of the cooking and camp chores while you relax and enjoy the magnificent scenery. We supply the finest camping gear rentals and transport everything from camp to camp. You carry only what you want in a light daypack. End each day with a refreshing shower, a hearty meal and the camaraderie of the campfire.

"The itinerary, accommodations, food, support vehicle and biking equipment were all top notch." V. Giller, NY

Meals to Remember
Wake to a delicious, hearty breakfast then venture into the great outdoors to sample our extraordinary trailside picnics featuring everything from homemade recipes to catered delicacies. Our never-ending snack box is always on hand to keep you happy and nourished between meals. And in the evening, experience restaurants meticulously selected for their quality, ambiance, and regional flavor. From elegant and gourmet to simple and delicious, you'll probably eat better than you do at home!

Special diet? Not a problem. Just let us know when making your reservation.

"The Colorado Multi-Sport exceeded all my expectations. The experiences allowed me to break away from the real world and explore the beauty of Colorado. As a registered dietitian and vegetarian -- I was very impressed with the nutritious meals prepared." A. Heizler, NY

Why Our Guests Return
Half of our guests become repeat customers or were referred by a previous guest. For years we've maintained this standard, and this is the single best testimony to the quality, value and personal attention we lavish on our guests. If you haven't taken a trip with The World Outdoors, then we have hundreds of past customers who would love to tell you about their experience. Call about any of our trips and we'll be happy to refer you to a guest who's been there with us.

"I've taken three trips with The World Outdoors with a fourth one coming up. I haven't repeated with any other company -- that says it all. I've never had the same guide on any of your trips to date but they've been consistently excellent -- quite a track record!" B. Brady, MA

"I have traveled to many places and have done the 'out of the ordinary' vacations, but this is one that will be forever in my book of the best. Being in the hospitality business myself, I wanted to be taken care of, and I was in great need of a new adventure. Your staff fulfilled that." L. Dickerson, IN

Environmental Stance
Since The World Outdoors was founded in 1988, we have worked to support environmental causes close to both our homes and our hearts. Our primary focus is to lessen our impact and reduce, reuse, and recycle -- to leave areas in better condition than when we found them. We know that our adventures will only be possible if we preserve the places we love.
