Experience Family Bonding Like Never Before with Adventure Travel
Eskimo Weekend in Germany
Austria and Germany have a number of adventure parks that encourage spending time outdoors among, and in, the trees. One such place, Waldseilgarten Höllschlucht, offers unique summer activities including climbing, ziplining, archery and sleeping in suspended tents among the trees.
However, it’s their winter activity, Eskimo Weekend, that’s really something special. Families take a weekend journey in the alps where the park’s mountain guides teach participants how to build their own igloo.
That’s right — you get to build and sleep in your very own igloo. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity that’s only available two months out of the year and costs less than the price of a plane trip to Europe.
Tailormade Zambia Safari
For decades, safaris have been one of the most popular outdoor family adventure vacations. Many different East and South African countries have benefited from the draw of adventure tourism with luxury safari lodges popping up all over the region.
Multiple tourism companies currently offer higher end, tailor-made safaris to countries such as Zambia where the potential for observing wildlife is high.
African Safari Co, Boundless Journeys, and Norman Carr Safaris all boast private guides, chefs and staff during your stay. Enjoy your own custom itinerary filled with activities such as tracking lions and elephants, river safaris and hot air balloon tours of the famous Victoria Falls.
