WHO WE ARE

Aaron West - Tour Guide

For some, traveling is a pastime, a break from the daily routine. For me, it is normality. As a tour guide, I will help you disconnect from your everyday world, so you can fully immerse yourself in nature and reconnect with yourself.

Hiker, traveler, outdoor enthusiast, nature enthusiast

My name is Aaron West and I am a licensed tour guide. I have loved to travel for as long as I can remember and have spent more time backpacking than sitting at a desk. I have been to every continent in the world and visited over 50 countries including Senegal, Indonesia, Qatar; Bahrain and Greenland. I am fluent in English, French and Italian and am very fluent in Spanish (I tell myself). I have a BA in History from the State University of New York and lived in Italy for 3 years, wandering the countryside, working odd jobs and meeting wonderful people. I have acquired excellent culinary skills through my travels and am known for preparing some of the best camping meals in the region. I am a certified lifeguard and a former professional rower.

GUIDED ACTIVITIES

All my tours include some walking, but if you want a little more physical activity, I'll be happy to include that. In addition to one- and two-day canoe trips, you can choose a mountain bike tour, a rock climb, and a full-day rappel. Let me know what you're interested in.

HIGHLIGHTS

Don't forget your camera or your notebook with charcoal because on these excursions you will find so many attractions that you will want to immortalize them all. From deserted paper mills to the highest local peaks, from caves carved in ice to ancient forests, see the best sites of the region.
