How did you like your last vacation? Did you enjoy yourself? Were you entertained? Was there some relaxing time also or did your last vacation consist of you toting your family around, doing some work around the yard and other household chores? Would you consider your last “vacation” a “staycation”? Why not do something different this year? Next time you have a few days off, why not test one of the local adventure travels. If crossing the state line is not an option, there are probably many different adventures you can participate in. If you can afford to spend a little more, why not treat yourself to a true adventure? Here are some crowd-pleasing adventure travels. For example, if you are in Southern California, try doing some Orange County whale whatching from Dana Point, California.

Dog sledding is a great adventure! You probably think that going dog sledding can only be done by trained professionals. This is true for the Iditarod race. If you just want to explore the sport a little bit and have some fun, Alaskan Husky Adventures is what you need. This group offers adventurers three or two day packages. You buy your own groceries, stay in their cabins and then during the day you get taught the basics of dog sledding by professionals and sometimes you are given guided tours.

If you’re up for an extreme adventure travel, why not consider taking a hot air balloon trip somewhere? How about partaking in a white water rafting adventure? Have you pondered the idea of Bungee jumping? Some people enjoy a rush of excitement from skydiving. Obviously there are places to do this in almost every town. When extreme adventure vacationing becomes an option, skydiving over the Grand Canyon becomes a possibility. Partake on a hot air balloon adventure over the Australian outback. When you decide to become an extremist the world becomes your playground. A trendy extreme vacation is paragliding in India. Why not give it a try? If you are looking for last minute vacations, this can save a lot of money.

Do you love the thought of being up close to big game? Have you always wanted to see exotic animals in their natural habitats? Why not take an African Safari. There are tour groups that journey all over the African continent. Choose from one of the many trusted companies and let them show you where to find hippos, elephants and giraffes in their natural environments. Look at prides of lions and packs of hyenas. Watch birds you have only see in the zoo. If you are an animal lover, a Safari is for sure a wonderful way to experience adventure travels.

Not all adventure travels have to be about risking your life. You can have a perfectly adventurous vacation without bungee jumping, sky diving or hoping that a shark won’t bite through a cage. Meanwhile, that is only half the excitement of any adventure-based vacation, for an adrenaline addict.

The trick to taking a real adventurous journey is to put yourself up to a challenge and still have a terrific time. Go for it!
