Is your wish to see a glacier up close or from afar? There & Back Again Tours™ can take you there by boat, plane, or trail, it's your choice. Does your ideal vacation include a stay in a log cabin on a lake, a cosy B&B, a tent miles from civilization, or some of each? Let us know and we'll arrange a custom trip that suits you, your interests, your fitness level, and your budget. We have experience guiding everyone from absolute beginners to seasoned veterans, but probably enjoy the beginners the most, sharing in their excitement, wonder, and accomplishment. We've traveled the Chilkoot Trail, Tombstone Territorial Park, Kluane National Park, and Tuktut Nogait in the Northwest Territories.

The Sierra de San Francisco contain some of the oldest cave paintings in the world and can be accessed on foot, with burro support if you wish, or by mule and burro. It's a steep trail, similar to that of the Grand Canyon, but can be accomplished by anyone of good physical condition. Don't want to carry a full backpack, just a daypack instead? Let a burro carry some or all, it's your choice. And you can ride a mule if you'd rather not hike. We'll be escorted by a friendly local guide and will be camping on the valley floor. Contact us to arrange this trip. Click here for a sample itinerary. If you have the time, why not combine this trip with a whale encounter in San Ignacio Lagoon?

Experience the wonder of a baby Gray Whale encountering you in San Ignacio Lagoon.

San Ignacio Lagoon is where the friendliest gray whales can be found. Every year they travel from the arctic seas south to the warm sheltered bays of Baja California's Pacific coast to mate and give birth to baby gray whales. They are watched over here, the local guides caring for their well-being and protection, making sure not to disturb them. Every year, the whales return, and a mother whale, knowing she has nothing to fear because she has met humans and their boats in the lagoon before, encourages her baby to experience human touch. Perhaps she'll roll over onto her back and support her baby from below so it doesn't have to swim and can enjoy the feeling of being stroked and kissed. It truly is an unforgettable experience, for you certainly and hopefully for the whales also. Click here for more information.
