Adventure Tourism

Kicking off 2026 with AI tools, ever-changing global rules, lack of, & rupture of International Laws and ever-changing world stability, and increasing catastrophic world events layered on new travel complexities & a mortal dread of world pandemics.

Pent-up wanderlust, and the wave of retirees with a desire to experience smiling faces, tasty & affordable food, and breathtaking cultural and natural landscapes is being unleashed.

Options are limitless, and they all come with fresh challenges and new perspectives. Let us help you leave your comfort zone to explore untamed regions of the world.


Experience the richness of planet earth

Cruising the Amazon River - deep in the amazon your senses will awaken to the sights, sounds, and smells of colourful birds, frogs, insects, monkeys, and gurgling streams; by learning about the rainforest stewards life deep in the jungle; by witnessing a spiritual healing session with a shaman by mingling with iguanas, boobies, or penguins in the unparalleled Galapagos; or by relaxing on pristine natural beaches All of these cultural experiences showcase an extraordinary harmonic relationship with mother earth. Whatever the wilderness option that tugs at your imagination - make a point to go, because it sure isn't coming to you !


Discover lost civilization

The nearest at hand are likely in southern Mexico, where some of the most important centres of Mayan civilization were lost to the hot, steamy jungles. The most impressive include Palenque, in Chiapas, and Calakmul, in Campeche, where you can wander the sprawling stone remains of cities that peaked in the 700s. Machu Picchu, Ingapirca, Easter Island, UNESCO world heritage sites include Quito, & Cuenca in Ecuador.


Authentic cultural experience - cultural festivity - home-cooked meal

Most memorable experiences now focus on a unique cultural event or lifestyle tradition, genuine authentic cuisine enjoyed in a families home or from the fascinating street vendors. There's no better window into the lives of real people abroad than entering their kitchens, and nothing more humbling than to experience that generous hospitality. In our experience, no offence to aspiring young chefs, the more grandmotherly the chef, the tastier the food.


Ecuador is a world leader in community based tourism with over 100 indigenous communities offering a wide variety of experiences in different and more affordable ways. Indigenous markets, hiking excursions, horseback riding, or mountain biking to local lakes, paramo highlands, mountains, and volcanoes all led by local, professionally licensed guides. Prepare to be amazed as you see, hear, touch, and taste things you have probably never experienced.

Sustainable tourism provides a unique and highly experiential aspect, providing the visitor with tangible involvement in life's daily activities, and a rewarding learning experience within a new culture..
