Does your family usually eat up all of your vacation time? Are you tired of sitting on a couch and watching television with your parents because doing something else during your vacation time would make you feel guilty? It can be hard to get over those guilty feelings. All the same, don't you sometimes want to take a vacation you can have fun on? Why not go off on a grand adventure the next time you get some vacation days? You might even be able to fit in a weekend adventure trek and still be able to make stop at your parent's house. Here are some adventure travels you should try.
Dog sledding can be a wonderful adventure! You might think that dog sledding can only be done by professionals who are trained in the sport. If you're thinking about the Iditarod, then you are right. For those who just want to have a little bit of fun and a little bit of adventure, the package deals at Alaskan Husky Adventures is just the ticket. There are three and two day package deals available through this group. 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. Palawan hotels is a must if you want to stay.
Dude Beaches are good trips for the whole family. The Ponderosa Ranch in Nebraska gives you an opportunity for laborious work and an exciting ranch vacation. You can be an occupant in the ranch's guest cabins. During the day you are a true ranch hand. Guests ride horses and help round up and drive the ranch's cattle from one pasture to another. At night there are campfire stories to be shared, some home cooking to be enjoyed and some excellent activities to participate in. When you have free time, you have several options to choose from, including hunting, fishing, hiking and riding horses. This is a wonderful vacation for families because people of all ages and skill levels can partake on the adventure.
Take a Llama Trek! Anybody can ride a horse. If you want some funky adventure travels but don't have the money to travel outside of the US, check out the Hurricane Creek Llama Treks in Oregon. These treks will have you camping outside for the trip--you bring your own equipment and are responsible for all of it as well as for packing and unpacking your llama bags. These treks are fun because they let you choose between riding the llamas or walking and leading the llamas along with you. When else in your life will you have the chance to go llama riding?
Not all adventure travels have to be about risking your life. You can have a glorious adventure vacation without bungee jumping, skydiving or praying a shark won't nibble on a cage. Meanwhile, that is only half the excitement of any adventure-based vacation, for an adrenaline addict.
The trick to taking a truly adventurous vacation is to challenge yourself while still having fun. Do it!
