Adventure and experiential travel is growing - and I can understand why.
More of us want to come home having actually ๐๐ญ๐ฅ๐๐ง๐๐๐ฃ๐๐๐ somewhere, rather than simply visited it.
Perhaps it's:
๐ง An expedition to Antarctica
๐ฆ A safari through Africa
๐ฅพ Trekking in the Himalayas
๐ข Exploring the Galรกpagos
๐ฟ Searching for wildlife in Costa Rica
๐ Or creating a complex journey through several countries
But the more extraordinary the journey, the more important the planning behind it becomes.
Flights need to connect properly. Transfers need to work. The right local specialists need to be involved. Visas, entry requirements and sometimes medical documentation need to be considered. And if something doesn't go according to plan, you need to know ๐ฌ๐๐ค ๐๐จ ๐ฉ๐๐๐ง๐ ๐ฉ๐ค ๐๐๐ก๐ฅ ๐ฎ๐ค๐ช.
That's why choosing who you book with matters.
Before entrusting someone with a significant trip, don't be afraid to ask:
โ๏ธ Who are you booking my holiday through?
โ๏ธ What financial protection do I have?
โ๏ธ Who supports me while I'm travelling?
โ๏ธ Do you work with specialists in the destination?
โ๏ธ What happens if something goes wrong?
A great travel advisor shouldn't be uncomfortable answering those questions.
For me, experiential travel isn't about putting together the most impressive-looking itinerary.
It's about making sure all those individual experiences work together to create one ๐๐ญ๐ฉ๐ง๐๐ค๐ง๐๐๐ฃ๐๐ง๐ฎ ๐๐ค๐ช๐ง๐ฃ๐๐ฎ.
Because adventure should contain surprises.
