    River Guru Rio Grande Mindfulness Adventure( remotely hosted)

    4.9 (7)

    Powered by Viator

    Taos, NM

    Please note that Viator( whos reps have never done this activity) wrote the OVERVIEW description that calls this both a tour and scavenger hunt and says i'll be explaining the ecosystem on the river. Unfortunately these inaccuracies are not easy for a suppiler to change. This is a great activity for the right people and I dont wish to mislead anyone. I host and interact with my guests on Whats App. Its not a guided hiking tour. I am a scavenger hunt host and have hunts in both Taos and Santa Fe. This isnt really a scavenger hunt. Its much slower paced, creative and is more about connecting with the land. There are creative exercises. I do give you interesting background on the area but i am not a biologist who is qualified to explain the eco system of the river. if you play this solo, I am happy to host you but know that i cannot provide you with a group to play with. id say a degree of being comfortable alone on hiking trails is essential if you book solo.
