Private Maine Adventure Trip Inquiry

Freeport, Maine

For over 40 years, L.L.Bean Outdoor Discovery Programs has been taking locals and visitors alike on unforgettable overnight and multiday journeys to some of Maine’s most iconic and picturesque locations, with all-inclusive trips spanning all four seasons and a wide variety of activities.

Now we’re putting the adventure in your hands, letting you schedule a custom departure for one of our existing trips or design a one-of-a-kind itinerary to share with travel partners you choose. Once you’ve decided on the details of your experience, we’ll set everything up and send you out with a Registered Maine Guide who will lead your private group on the trip of a lifetime!

Warmer weather might have you kayaking along the Maine coast and camping on remote islands, exploring hiking trails in Baxter State Park, biking along Acadia’s famous carriage roads, or canoeing through history on the Allagash Wilderness Waterway. Winter presents its own exciting opportunities as well, like lodge-to-lodge snowshoeing and cross-country skiing experiences on majestic Maine woodland trails.

All the details are up to you, including when to leave, the activities you’ll enjoy, and where you’d like to stay along the way. Depending on the trip you plan, we can offer a variety of accommodations – from beautifully rustic backcountry campsites to hotels, lodges and inns with more modern amenities.

A private trip with Outdoor Discovery Programs is the ideal option for family getaways and reunions, celebrating special occasions, or if you just want to experience the outdoors on your own terms, with friends and family by your side. We’ll bring the gear and provide all the expertise you need – you get to plan the rest!

Final trip cost will be determined prior to booking. Trip cost is dependent on group size, itinerary, and other requested accommodations.

    Smoking and Tobacco Policy

    L.L.Bean Outdoor Discovery Programs activities are tobacco- and smoke-free (including electronic smoking devices) in support of a healthy lifestyle and respect for our participants and guests. We thank you for understanding and respecting this policy.

    Alcohol Policy

    In general, alcohol consumption is not permitted during L.L.Bean Outdoor Discovery Programs events for the safety of all participants. However, alcoholic beverages are allowed on overnight trips and may only be consumed in a responsible way after the day’s activities are finished. If participants consume alcohol to excess in the evening and behave in ways that negatively impact their own safety, that of the group or the natural environment around them, our guides will intervene. We hope that we will never have to remove an offending guest from the remainder of a trip to ensure the group’s safety, but we will do so if necessary.
