Boyd, this is something I'm interested in myself! (Though I'm worried about liability - apparently insurance rates for public "events" are sky-high nowadays....)

Anyhow, I found some books on Amazon.... Here are the links:

• Start and Run a Profitable Tour Guiding Business
• How to Organize Group Travel for Fun and Profit
• Conducting Tours: A Practical Guide

I haven't read these books myself - But I hope that that helps anyhow. Buy at own risk! :)

Don Alm might know something about this. He's posted about the adventure travel business before. I hope Don sees this and will post something on this topic. :)
