7 days, 6 nights Its world class spas will revitalize your body and mind. Its rich history, Cuckoo clocks, Black Forest cakes, wines, and micro-breweries will tease your cultural senses. Blessed with one of the world's most sophisticated networks of hiking, biking, and cross-country ski trails, its no wonder that the Black Forest is one of our favorite ProActive destinations.
Mark Twain wrote of the Black Forest's beauty in "A Tramp Abroad." This deeply wooded southwestern corner of Germany remains much of a secret to most foreign tourists. Known for its fine weather, dark misty forests, and serene lakes and mountains, the Black Forest makes for the perfect getaway for outdoor enthusiasts.
All of our ProActive trips are all-inclusive (except airfare) and include: • All accommodations • Breakfast and Dinner each day • Transportation • 2-3 full-time ProActive trip leaders during your entire stay • All activities (cultural and sporting), as well as entrance to any museums, vineyards, or any other points of interest • Luggage service throughout your trip • Over-the-top spoiling and pampering of you and your travel companions by our fun and insightful ProActive trip leaders • Other miscellaneous activities and services
Once you begin your ProActive vacation, you can rest assured that there will be no surprise expenses (except for the postcards and souvenirs for your jealous friends back home of course!)
