Testimonial

“After recently becoming a single father, I wanted to share the American West with my 3 children ages 11,10, and 6. The trip that MT Sobek put together for us was absolutely phenomenal. My kids can't decide which activity was their favorite: white water rafting, zip lining, two different rodeos, exploring the Lewis & Clark caverns, touring Yellowstone, swimming in the ice cold pool below Ousel Falls. I am very thankful that every detail was perfectly planned and allowed me to solely focus on my children and enjoy the activities with them.”- Brian B.
