Our Travel Experts: Adventure & Sports Travel

If you’re an adrenaline junkie like me, you love to feel the excitement of what you know is a once-in-a-lifetime experience. For me adventure travel is knowing myself a bit better because of the experience; feeling a sense of pride in doing something that has pushed my limits. Do you know you can summit “The Grand” peak of the Grand Tetons with just three days of climbing instruction – even if you’ve never climbed before? Do you know you can be certified to explore our other-worldly water world in just seven days of scuba lessons– and in places like the Bahamas, Cozumel or the Great Barrier Reef? Do you know you can book on a Russian ice breaker in the Antarctic? Want to see penguins outside of the zoo? Going to Sydney? Add the bridge climb and, voila, soft adventure happens. There is a world out there and it holds a lot more than beaches, spas, restaurants and cathedrals. Even if you don’t wish to trek Nepal but just add a bit of spice to your family vacation, I can help you to do that – no matter what part of the world you wish to see. It’s not difficult to add a bit of the unusual to more conventional vacations. Mix it up a bit – you’ll not regret it. I would love to help you discover where your adventure awaits!

Nearly everyone that travels participates in an activity they have always wanted to achieve. I find that when someone is celebrating a special birthday, milestone or anniversary they want to visit the destination of their dreams and experience it. They want to gain knowledge of the local culture, history and undertake something new. Adventure travel has several different categories. It can be physical such as sharking diving off the South Africa coast, climbing famous Mt. Kilimanjaro in Tanzania, kayaking with whales off the coast of Maui or bungee jumping off a bridge in New Zealand. How about a volunteering vacation? You could volunteer your time in a clinic in Africa or a school in Peru. Why not take those cooking lessons you always wanted to have with a chef in Italy or learn about wine making in the wine regions of Chile or France. Everyone should experience the destination and I like to make my clients desires become a reality. Life is an adventure you should explore, dream and discover. I look forward to hearing from you.
