Our Guided Adventure Packages

Are you looking to experience the wild beauty of the Pine Tree State without the pressure of a hunt? Welcome to your premier source for Guided Maine Outdoor Adventures. At Thibodeau Outdoor Adventures, we believe the Maine woods are for everyone. Whether you are a family looking for a safe, scenic canoe trip or a photographer chasing the perfect waterfall shot, our veteran guides handle the logistics so you can focus on the memories. We specialize in curated outdoor experiences across Central Maine, including the Kennebec Valley, the Moosehead Lake region, and the remote waterfalls of Jackman. Leave the maps and the gear to us—your adventure begins here.

Why Choose a Guided Maine Outdoor Adventure?

Exploring the Maine wilderness can be daunting for visitors. Logging roads are unmarked, cell service is nonexistent, and the best views are often hidden secrets. Hiring a Registered Maine Guide ensures your trip is not only safe but deeply educational. We know exactly where the moose feed at dusk, which trails offer the best fall foliage, and how to navigate the rivers safely.

Our Signature Adventure Packages

We offer three distinct ways to explore Maine’s waters and woods. Each trip is fully customizable to your fitness level and interests.

The Waterfall Circuit: A Guided Hiking Experience

icon

Maine is home to over 2,000 hiking trails, but nothing compares to the raw power of our waterfalls. This full-day Guided Maine Outdoor Adventure takes you to three of the state’s most spectacular cascades. This is not just a walk in the woods; it is a tour of Maine’s geological history.

Moxie Falls: Witness one of Maine's highest distinct drops, plunging 90 feet into a rugged gorge.

Grand Falls: A wider, powerful horseshoe waterfall on the Dead River that feels like a mini-Niagara.

Cold Stream Falls: A hidden gem perfect for a midday picnic

Trip Details:

Duration: ~8 Hours

Activity Level: Moderate (approx. 6 miles of hiking total)

Included: Full lunch

Price: Starts at $400 for up to five hikers.

Scenic Canoe Trips & River Floats

icon

There is no better way to see Maine than from the bow of a canoe. Our scenic river floats are perfect for families, birdwatchers, and those seeking tranquility. Unlike whitewater rafting, these trips take place on calm sections of the Kennebec River or remote ponds, allowing you to glide silently past eagles, otters, and drinking deer.

Lunch Included: On all full-day trips (4+ hours).

Price: Starts at $400 (varies by location).

The "Golden Hour" Sunrise or Sunset Paddle

icon

Witness the magic of the Maine woods when the world goes quiet. Our sunrise and sunset paddles are designed for maximum wildlife viewing. This is the prime time to spot loons calling on the Belgrade Lakes or moose wading in the shallows of remote ponds near Jackman.

Duration: 2 Hours

Locations: Belgrade Lakes, Branch Pond, Freedom Pond, or Bowler Pond.

Price: Starts at $150.
