Our Trips Calendar

We’ve done our research. We know that lunch tastes better with a great view and there’s nothing like getting outside with a bunch of other fun people. That’s why we’ve made it our #1 priority to scout out the most social adventures around Washington DC. Ranging from whitewater rafting and brewery tours in Harpers Ferry to hiking and camping in the Shenandoah Valley to rock climbing in New River Gorge National Park, our trips are designed to guarantee you the perfect getaway.

We also do custom trips for corporate outings, club trips, birthdays, international vacations, and more. Organize a group of 12 and you go for free!
