These are people who enjoy a rush of excitement. They like to interact with their fellow travelers. Is this is bio of you? Are you aspiring to figure out what type of adventure travels you want to embark on for your next vacation? Deciding on the right adventure trip can be hard work. There are so many options available! Here are some of our favorite adventure vacations.
If you enjoy being outside and using your survival skills to live off the land, why not try an Australian Walkabout? These have become noteworthy adventures, especially after one of the main actors on the television show "Lost" tried to go on one. The original thought for an Australian Walkabout was for you and your fellow adventurers to get out into the Australian Outback on a guided tour. When you get out on a walkabout, you are only living off the land. You gather your own food, construct your own shelter from the available materials and take on any "elements" that might come your way (weather, wild animals, etc). It is kind of like extreme camping and can be incredibly fulfilling.
Shark Diving is not really light and easy but it is thrilling! The Shark Diver Company has diving packages that allow you to dive with the sharks in California and Mexico. These types of adventure travels are not cheap. Most are around three thousand dollars per person. But most of these vacations are at least five days long. Make sure you have your diving certification before you go, though. You wouldn't want to have to sit up on the boat the whole time!
Do you dream of seeing large animals in-person? Have you always yearned to see different animals in their natural habitats? Why not partake on an African Safari. There are tours that visit various locations on the continent of Africa. Choose from one of many trusted businesses and let them show you the native lands of hippos, elephants and giraffes. View prides of lions and packs of hyenas. Watch birds you have only see in the zoo. If you love animals, a Safari is one of the best ways to experience adventure travels.
Not all adventure travels have to be about risking your life. You can have an exquisite adventure vacation without bungee jumping, skydiving or hoping a shark won't destroy a cage. At the same time, for the adrenaline fueled, that risk is half of the fun of any adventure based vacation.
Yearn for the rough and tumble days of the Old West? Then head out to a dud ranch. No, you don't have to be that good on a horse - you'll learn. There are "working" ranches that may include a cattle drive and a chuckwagon. Other ranches are strictly for tourists but they all offer fishing, hiking and boating. It's a cinch you won't have to lose any 'vacation weight' on such a physical vacation.
The key to having a real adventurous vacation is to get out of your comfort zone while still having an enjoyable time. Get out and do it!
