"ECHO has the most attractive [!!], sensitive, and competent guides of any professional activity group I have ever joined…They became instant friends!"

- R. Kirk Winston-Salem, NC

Beyond the critical skills, we hire people who are fun and interesting to be around, and whom you would welcome into your home. In fact, one of the unexpected joys for us is to see the number of friendships that develop between guests and guides, friendships that last well beyond the actual river trip.
