Three Family Adventure Vacation Ideas

By Joseph J Colella


For some individuals, a great vacation includes enjoying a beach or a cabin in the woods. They dream of being waited on hand and foot and having nothing to worry about. For some, a great vacation includes adventure!

These trips were created to get you out into the woods, to test your limits and get you active. A lot of people save their money for years to be able to afford to go on all-encompassing adventure vacations. Fortunately, there are some that don't need a lifetime of savings. Here are some great ideas for your next trip.

A noteworthy example of extreme adventure travels is mountain climbing. The West Coast Mountain Guides regular take thrill-seeking travelers out on climbing excursions. You can choose from spots located all over the western Canadian provinces. Climbers can select from rock climbing, ice climbing or even snow mountaineering. If you're really looking for a thrill, they will take you on a journey that will include all three.

Before you head out on one of these vacations, however, make sure you are in top physical shape. Mountain climbing expeditions are not meant for lackadaisical and physically unfit individuals! Dude Ranches can be great adventure travels for the whole family. The Ponderosa Ranch in Nebraska gives you an opportunity for laborious work and an exciting ranch vacation.

You can sleep in the ranch's guest cabins. During the day you become a real working ranch hand. Guests ride horses and help round up and drive the ranch's cattle from one pasture to another. In the evening time there are campfire stories.

Do you enjoy the thought of being right up close to large animals? Have you always dreamed of seeing exotic animals in their native habitats? Why not take an adventure on an African Safari. There are tour groups that journey all over the African continent.

Select one of the many trusted outfits and let them show you where to see hippos, elephants and giraffes in their native habitats. See bunches of lions and hyenas. Look at birds that you're only see in the zoo. An adventure travel cut out for an animal love is definitely a Safari.

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. Meanwhile, that is only half the excitement of any adventure-based vacation, for an adrenaline addict.

The key to having a real adventurous vacation is to get out of your comfort zone while still having an enjoyable time. Get on with it!
