Thomson Family Adventures now offers trips closer to home!  For the first time the family adventure company is offering a scheduled tour inside of the continental United States this summer and next.  The Southwest is home to incredible geological formations, vast desert landscapes, winding canyon hikes, Native American culture and some of the best national parks in the country.  Thomson’s Southwest USA: Multi-Sport Adventure for Families starts in Phoenix and ends in Las Vegas.  It includes Bryce, Zion and Arches National Parks along with Monument Valley and Moab.  Activities include plenty of hiking (including wading up a river), horseback riding and a float trip on the Colorado River.  Another new trip is their Canadian Rockies adventure to the gorgeous Banff region.  Discounts are now available if you book for next summer (save $100 per person for groups of 2-5 and $200 per person for 6 or more if booked by May 31, 2016).  Children under age 12, triple rooms with children under age 12 and alumni also get a discount.  Thomson Family Adventures creates one-of-a-kind, high quality adventures to engage, entertain and educate families with children of all ages.
