Important to Know
The mountain portion of the Explorer experience is intentionally off-grid. Accommodations are clean and comfortable, but do not include air conditioning or hot water. Many guests find this to be one of the most memorable parts of the experience.
If you prefer full modern amenities throughout, the Immersion or Private Elite options may be a better fit.
This Is Not for Everyone
This experience may not be a good fit if you:
- Want a typical resort-style vacation
- Prefer highly structured tourism
- Need full luxury accommodations at all times
