Trip Itinerary
Acadia National Park is best explored on foot — where rocky coastlines, lush forests, and unforgettable adventures meet. Thanks to visionaries like George B. Dorr, Acadia became the first national park east of the Mississippi in 1919, preserving its wild beauty for generations to come.
Join us for hikes along iconic trails like the Beehive, Ocean Path, and Jordan Pond, led by friendly and experienced female guides. We’ll take in sweeping ocean views, granite peaks, and mossy woodland trails that offer something magical around every bend.
We’ll also enjoy an unforgettable Ocean Tour, featuring a two-hour boat ride from the charming harbor of Corea. Watch for the Petit Manan Lighthouse, playful Harbor & Gray seals, Atlantic puffins, and get a firsthand look at how lobster traps are hauled in Maine’s working waters.
Discover the beauty of Northwest Casco Bay on a 3-hour morning kayaking tour. See Brunswick and its native wildlife from a unique vantage point. Paddle through calm coastal waters, then enjoy complimentary snacks and a brief land excursion before your return.
Wander quiet carriage roads, soak in panoramic views from Cadillac Mountain, and take time to slow down along peaceful lakes and crashing coastlines.
We’ll stay in a great location (more details to come), perfect for rest, connection, and recharging after a day on the trail.
If you want to truly see, feel, and experience Acadia National Park, this is your chance. Don’t wait — this is the trip of a lifetime!
