Gene17's River Flow Newsletter
|
April has been a great month in Slovenia and Corsica. The team of Jakub, Jake, Deb and Simon have started the sunny season early, ramping up to run a number of trips back to back.
Presently we are receiving a number of last minute requests for up coming trips. Please if you are very keen to join us, get in touch quickly, so we can ensure a place for you.
Our stripped down group and individual offer in Valsesia has been greeted well. We'll be rolling this out in Norway and Slovenia. Whilst we have offered only full inclusive trips before. We have had both requests for a wider range of solution to hit everyones demands and budgets. Whilst we do not offer discounts, a value offer for coaching only solutions, especally for groups certainly makes us highly competitive on price. Add the quality of our coaching, the local knowledge and developed expertise from years of being at great paddling locations, and the "BANG for your BUCK" is pretty dam loud.
Check out our offers and get in contact soon.
