Let’s Make Your Next Vacation an Exciting Adventure!

What did you do for your last vacation? Did you have fun? Did you find something thrilling? Was there some leisure too or did your last vacation consist of shuttling your family around, doing yard work and other chores? Was your last "vacation" actually a "staycation"? Why not try something new this year? When you have a small amount of time off, why not check into some of the adventure travels available near your home. If crossing the state line is not an option, there are probably many different adventures you can participate in. If you have money burning a hole in your pocket, why not experience a true adventure? Here are some adventure travels that are well-known favorites.

Lots of people think of dog sledding as a fantastic adventure! You might be under the impression that dog sledding is a professional sport and not for amateurs. This is true for the Iditarod race. If, however, you just want to have a great adventure and try out a little bit of dog sledding, you should try out Alaskan Husky Adventures. This group offers adventurers three or two day packages. Simply take up a few days worth of groceries and relax--during the day you'll be taught the basics of sledding with dogs and go on guided tours offered by professional sledders.

Are you an avid hunter but getting tired of the wild game available for hunting in your neck of the woods? Why not go on a hunting travel expedition?

Most continents have some type of tour and outfits that will show you how to hunt the wild game that is found in their part of the world. Do you have a desire to go hunting in Africa for the larger-than-life (non-endangered) wild animals? You can accomplish it. Are you into hunting out in the wild west of America? You can do that too. The most important thing to decide for a hunting adventure is selecting what type of game you want to hunt. From that point the only thing you need to do is figure out logistics, like: "how will I get my hunting gear there or will they provide it?"

Go for a Llama Trek! Anybody can ride a horse. Hurricane Creek Llama Treks in Oregon are a great way to have some wacky adventure travels without having to leave the country. These treks will have you camping outside for the trip--you bring your own equipment and are responsible for all of it as well as for packing and unpacking your llama bags. These are great trips because you can either ride your own llama in the Oregon wilderness or you can walk the trails and lead your llama behind you. Can you think of any other time in your life when you are going to get to ride a llama?

Adventure travels don't have to be unrestricted, ritzy and unconventional. Some of them involve daytime trips, while returning to a peaceful setting for the evening. The main purpose of an adventure vacation is to have an amusing time, while being active. Luckily, there is something for almost every adventurer to do - even if they one have a short vacation time in which to do it. When the time comes to layout your next vacation plans why not think about taking a walk on the adventurer's side? You can choose to relax at the spa next time.
