Fun Trip Ideas by Don Davidson
If you're looking for some fun trip ideas for
your group, here are some of the trips we offer.
Here is a list of some trips we’ve done in the past and could package for your group. There are no prices included because there are many variables that need to be known before pricing can be done. Please call or email me if you want more information on any of these tours and I’ll be happy to figure the exact price based on your perimeters (type and size of group, lodging accommodations, mode of travel, etc.). My phone is 913-338-0129 and my email is don777@swbell.net. (Note: * designates day trips, the others are overnights.) In addition to the trips below, we can also package some overseas trips. Please call us for suggestions.
