Machu Picchu is now becoming the world's most popular adventure destination.  It boasts of the amazing Urubamba River.

Cycle Southern Iceland

Iceland is often called the Land of Fire and Ice as it is known to be the home to fiery eruptions and chilly glaciers.  If ever a country was blessed with natural scenery, it's Iceland. This year, you can discover that barren beauty in a new and unexpected way: through a strenuous yet very exciting activity, biking!

Alaska

Alaska is the perfect place for those who want to work hard by day and enjoy a soft landing at night. Hard work never felt so good. This place is perfect for kayaking, rafting and hiking excursions to glaciers and ice fields.

Burma
Ancient temples, alpine villages, and a mythical landscape–this is Burma, which is also known as Myanmar, one of Southeast Asia's hidden gems. Experience this complex and quickly changing nation while exploring its grassroots style, budget-friendly prices, and commitment to cultural exploration.

Bosnia-Herzegovina

Adventure focuses almost as much on the culture and landscape of this under-explored European nation. You may hike to waterfalls and through canyons, explore Mostar and Sarajevo and other vibrant cities, and enjoy fine Mediterranean cuisine. Highlight your trip by exploring the "Grand Canyon of the Balkans."
