Escape Adventures announced a new partnership with Blacksford Luxury RV Rentals to offer multiday guided cycling tours via luxury RV.
By utilizing Blacksford RVs on a new selection of road and mountain biking tours, Escape Adventures said it will be the only travel operator to offer this experience that blends the comforts of home with the thrills of active travel. Blacksford’s service includes airport transfers, vehicle orientation, 24-7 roadside support and even a complimentary National Parks pass.
The first itineraries being offered are six-day multisport trips in Canyonlands, Arches and Moab via road bike or mountain bike. The tours start at $4,274 per person (including RV rental) and can be adapted to accommodate group size or varied skill levels. Thrill-seekers lacking outdoor experience or family groups will find this tour a perfect match of adventure and tempo, the company said. For more information, click here.
“We’ve always considered ourselves pioneers of the adventure travel industry,” said Escape Adventures Founder Jared Fisher. “We’ve done a lot of innovative things over the past 30 years, like spearheading the Aquarius Trail System and being the first mountain bike outfitter to offer tours on the North Rim of the Grand Canyon. These luxury RV multisport tours are yet another example. This is a perfect way for our clients who love camping tours to kick it up a notch.”
Blacksford offers a variety of luxury RV rentals with the amenities and space to serve unique needs. Clean, reliable and road trip-ready, these vehicles allow guests to take the comforts of home to America’s most beautiful outdoor destinations. Each RV rental is packed with fresh linens, cozy blankets and quality cookware. Guests will love the like-new amenities and pristine interiors, the company said, plus a few added perks, all at no extra fee.
Moab’s backcountry provides the perfect setting for a multisport RV adventure. At Arches, guests will hike through a geological wonderland, where natural exhibits of pinnacles, arches, pedestals and balancing rocks seem to defy the laws of physics. Contrasting colors, textures and landforms distinguish the many vegetation zones of this canyon country, each offering its own kind of adventure. At Dead Horse Point and Island in the Sky, expansive views of mazelike chasms typify the biking experience along the acclaimed mesa and singletrack. Moab’s vertical landscape offers guests a fantastic introduction to canyoneering, and while the Colorado River’s power is present everywhere throughout this adventure, nowhere is it better realized than on an exciting day of river rafting.
“We’ve transformed the RV rental business with our blend of affordable luxury, comfortable amenities, and attentive customer service,” said Blacksford CEO Becky Goodell.
“This partnership with Escape Adventures feels like a perfect match.”
“We’ll share insider travel tips, answer any questions, and ensure guests are road-ready with a comprehensive vehicle orientation. We’re here to make the experience smooth and worry-free.”
