About This Adventure

Please request a tour, and we will call to confirm and take payment within 48 hours.

This is a private version of either our Foraging Tour or Wild Food Stroll, which we can customize for your group.

Note that the stroll takes place at an in-town resort, includes only one restaurant option, and does not include a cooking demo/tasting or harvesting of wild foods. For more info, see here.

Tours are suitable for all ages and abilities. If your party is less than six people, a private tour is usually only preferable if you are already at an intermediate level or are unable to join a public tour. Otherwise, a larger group tends to make for a livelier tour — plus we find more!


Cost

Wild Food Stroll (1.5 hours), $45/adult, $35/teens, $20/child; $270 minimum Foraging Tour (3 hours): $85/adult, $65/teens, $45/child; $510 minimum

Child prices are for age 5-11; children under 5 are free.
