Lewis & Clark Undaunted Courage Tour by Stephen Ambrose Tours
Most comprehensive and satisfying tour ever!
As a retired Environmental Studies Professor, our tour guide Dr. Don Snow is widely well read and has thorough knowledge of the Lewis and Clark Expedition. It was obvious from the very beginning that his teacher instinct wishing to impart his vast knowledge with us runs deep in his blood. Having lived in MT for many years, Don is intimate with local lores and history, as well as its flora and fauna. Five of us tested positive for Covid during our tour. Nick, our tour manager and the "fixer" of all things and ASHT Company did a phenomenal job of guiding us through the difficult situation.

Far Exceeded Expectations
Food was way beyond expectations; history and geology were wonderful. It was great that you were able to accommodate the many different skill levels and expectations. Hope to go on more ROW trips. I was glad the guides said, "Embrace the mud," up front. It prepared me for what we experienced. Maybe some of my clothing will be white again some day! I'll spend some more time reading about Lewis and Clark as a result of the trip.
