Welcome to a Lifetime of Adventure
Bold Paths specializes in customizing and personalizing trips to meet the needs
of the participants (TLC). We are a small company with American Canoe Association (ACA) certified Essentials Kayak Instructors dedicated to taking very special trips with very special people. Are you meant to travel with us? We have years of experience taking people on the water and running camps for children. Now we are putting this happy experience to a new use in our family travel, womens travel and kayaking adventures. Our trips are small, intimate, and personal. This year we are offering a few very special opportunities.
