Changing the Game

Big changes are happening within the travel community. From the popularity of AirBnB to volunteer programs like Workaway, travelers are shifting away from high-end hotels and cookie cutter cruises. Adventure travel is becoming the new normal, and even large companies like MSN.com and The Active Times are taking notice.

MSN.com writes, “A new study by the Adventure Travel Trade Association (ATTA) revealed that, more than any other motivating factor, adventure explorers are seeking out transformative experiences while on holiday.”

 

Personalized Adventure Travel

If generic vacations are about staying in tourist areas, adventure travel is all about having new experiences. However, organizing these kinds of trips when you’re not familiar with the territory can be complicated, especially with international travel. MSN.com warned their readers, “Finding the best off-the-beaten path destinations and what to do once you get there requires time and research.”

When traveling with Gondwana, we aim to take the stress out of trip planning. Every aspect of our tours are hand-selected by our team to provide the best experience for our guests. When you consider that the tour prices save you time, money and effort on trip planning, it adds even more value.



Sustainable Adventure Travel

The Active Times says that adventure travelers, “…don’t want to feel like regular tourists; they want to know how locals live and be like them for a while.” Facilitating this process is something that we’re passionate about at Gondwana. Connecting visitors with authentic experiences that benefit the local community is a big part of our tours. Compared to generic organized trips that only show tourist areas, this is a breath of fresh air for those wanting to see something new.
