Yes! AdventureBus tours are appropriate for all ages!  Guests on our bus have been as young as 7 and as old as 70! As long as you are young at heart, age doesn't matter. Most of the people who choose to go on an AdventureBus tour, are there to experience and explore beautiful places and to meet interesting people.  These common goals make differences like age virtually disappear!

Probably the better question to ask, is are you and your children appropriate for AdventureBus? You know your children best. If they have been hiking and camping before and enjoyed it, chances are, they will LOVE Adventurebus.   If they haven't, AdventureBus may not be the best way to give hiking and camping a try.

What makes our tours enjoyable for all ages is the variety of activities available to you. You will not need to stick with the group throughout the day, and we can certainly point you in the right direction for hikes appropriate for your children's abilities. Most of the National Parks we visit have Jr. Ranger programs especially designed for children. We  will do our best to make those programs accessible to you.

Here is what you should keep in mind if you are deciding whether or not to bring your children on an AdventureBus tour. Your children should have had some experience with  hiking and camping previous to the trip. Also keep in mind that your child may come in contact with people from many different cultures and backgrounds.  Often, at least 50% of our passengers are from other countries. The rest are from all over the US.                           

We cannot guarantee that there will be other children on the tour you choose. If you are interested in bringing your children on an AdventureBus tour, please call us, and we will let you know which tours would be appropriate. If you would like to speak with families who have been on our trips, let us know, and we will be more than happy to put you in contact with them.  email: info@adventurebus.com, phone 888-737-5263.

Here are some examples of kids who have been on an AdventureBus tour, and loved it!

Nathaniel, age 8 came on a Grand Canyon tour in 2003 with his 11 year old sister and his Mom. He commented on how our banana chocolate chip pancakes tasted like candy.

Also on that tour were the Venuttis, a family of five from New Hampshire. They brought their 3 sons ages 11, 13, and 14 and had a wonderful time.

Thanks a lot Stephanie and Ardell! I had lots of fun while I was in Utah and want to come back in the near future. This trip was an inspiration to me to travel the world and taught me there is more out in this world than just what is in Ohio. Thanks again!                                                                     Gloria, (age 12) Grand Canyon and the Wild West July, 2004
