For 2014, Austin Adventures is adding new family programs in Montana, Belize, Australia and Botswana to their list of 33 exciting family adventure tour options. Their family programs provide an extra guide and van, special equipment (such as tag-along bikes) and separate activities for children; so adults can have some “down time.” The trips have plenty of options and flexibility with the perfect blend of cross-generational activity, R&R, comfort and adventure to satisfy adventurers of all ages. They are tailored to appeal to families with children ages 7 and up (5 and up in Costa Rica and 6 and up in Yellowstone).  National park concessionaire Xanterra is slated to purchase Austin Adventures shortly which will provide a wider range of variety with their national park programs.
