All travellers know the feeling, "I want to travel, I want to
experience new things and I want to do something completely different to
what I am doing now." The corresponding feeling is usually along the
lines of, "But what? Where? And how?"
This is actually made harder
with the vast selection of trips currently available, especially to
adventure travellers. Below are three ways to make inspiration a little
easier for those of you reading with travel on your mind.
Travel Reviews
One
of the best ways to find adventure travel inspiration is by reading
about other peoples' experiences. This is easily done by looking at
travel reviews. These travel reviews provide an insight, not only into
the service and value of adventure travel providers, but also the
experiences that people have had. Adventurers are drawn to places of
interest, especially ones that not many have been. Never underestimate
an adventure traveller's need for that feeling of exploration.
Travel
reviews also provide inspiration through density. For example, the
crowds may congregate in Kenya for a Safari or in Peru to hike Machu
Picchu, both areas would then receive a high number of reviews. With
this knowledge, an adventure traveller can easily pick his or her ideal
experience, based on how crowded they want their trip to be.
Adventure News
Read
adventure news and updates. One of the most useful sources of
inspiration comes from adventure travel industry news. Details of
current adventure vacation offers, new destinations available and new
activities to try will really get your imagination going. It's also
helpful when you're on a tight budget - discovering new adventures on
your doorstep is the latest travel trend.
How do you find the best
deals in the market? Just keep a watchful eye on the best adventure
news. Finding fresh adventures is one of the fundamental reasons that
the adventure travel market continues to grow (even in spite of
economic/political challenges). Travellers are always on the lookout for
the next destination or activity and one of the most fruitful sources
for inspiration is blogs from explorers and adventures on the cutting
edge. New routes through jungles, new epic cycle journeys or a new way
to use a helicopter to launch your adventure, these blogs have the
answers.
Adventure Travel Market Overview
Finally, finding inspiration can be a simple as looking at the adventure travel market as a whole - what can I do and where?
This
might be browsing through an atlas and pointing at the topographic
point of interest or looking at a list of adventures on a provider's
site. An easier option still is to utilize some of the powerful
adventure travel search sites out there. Simply click on an activity or
country and see where or what you can do.
So, if you need adventure travel inspiration remember these three points:
1. Read travel reviews
2. Keep an eye on adventure news and
3. Look out for global adventure travel search sites.
