Hi Rex, REI is one of my favorite stores. Company started about 60 yrs. ago as a coop for outdoor enthusiasts to buy gear etc. Now they have stores all over, catalog sales, a website, and a travel section that does guided tours kind of like Mt. Sobek. (adventure travel) Check them out at REI.com. Stands for Recreational Equipment, Inc.

Topping because I'm wondering if anyone has done this as well. They look reasonable and interesting.

Topping for me...<BR><BR>Am about to book a trip to Czech. and was wondering if anyone had firsthand experience (with the tour side of the company, not the retail side). What were the guides and hotels like?
