Adventure Travel today is more about immersion than exertion. It is the kind of travel that is more participatory than observatory. Adventure can be accessible to any traveler because it is more about your mentality than your fitness level. Many outfitters can accommodate travelers of all abilities. Whether you are an experienced adventurer or an armchair explorer, an adventure awaits!

 

There are many benefits to active travel. The adventures we’ve taken over the years have brought our family closer together, expanded our world view, and kept us feeling active and engaged.

  

Whether you prefer soft adventures such as birdwatching, hiking, snorkeling, and kayaking, or more extreme activities such as multi-day trekking, rock climbing, or SCUBA, active travel gets you outside in nature and gets your heart pumping.

 

Adventure travel can be found in almost any destination, each with its own 

unique experiences. The Swiss Tourist Board promotes activities including mountain climbing, cycling, paragliding, hiking and skiing. For those adventurers who are not particularly fit, there are options like guided hiking tours or snowmobile tours.

 

Columbia is the second most biodiverse country in the world. ProColombia, their government tourism agency, promotes experiences ranging from cycling in high mountains to diving in the Pacific or Atlantic. 

 

Travelers who have little interest in a “traditional” cruise may take a Silversea expedition cruise because it is one of the best ways to see remote places like Antarctica and the Galapagos.

 

However you define it, adventure travel has seen tremendous growth and there are many experts that can ensure a memorable yet safe adventure. So assess your motivation, endurance, and energy level and plan your next adventure. I hope that my blog will inspire your own adventures.
