Things to do for the non-hunter

(please note that everything is payable in and there for the dollar rate may vary.)

General information:

1 If entrance fee is required for the guide and vehicle this will be the clients responsibility. 2 Some of the trips are quite a distance to travel and I would recommend staying over for a day or 2 depending on what you would like to do, in order to enjoy it fully. 3 Some of the trips have a cost for the vehicle to drive to and from different places. Please speak to Ria in connection with this. 4 If a group or individual will need a guide to accompany them on the daytrips it will be $100 per guide per vehicle per day.

There might be price increases later in the year on some activities, depending on the economy. The prices above are just an indication, but might vary from season to season. Contact Ria for more information and quotes.
