Crystal Coast NC Adventures

Looking for a FUN adventure for your next vacation?  Active Travel Adventures curates multi-day world wide adventure travel holidays for reasonably fit folks who love to hike, bike, paddle or otherwise stay active for a more immersive experience when they vacation and explore our planet and its people.  

These are all adventures that YOU can do, especially if you train (I'm 64, so if I can do it, so can YOU!).  It's easy to find the right adventure for you: We cover mild adventures like cycling (flat) the historic and beautiful Netherlands, to taking an African safari, to taking a walking holiday from one medieval village to the next on historic paths in Europe.  

And if you are up for a bigger challenge, then check out climbing Kilimanjaro, trekking to Everest Base Camp or Annapurna in Nepal's majestic Himalayan mountains, or hiking the Mont Blanc circuit through Italy, France and Switzerland.

But most adventures we cover are rated a 3 out of 5 for difficulty.  Examples include (eBikes available) cycling Greek islands or island hopping from Split to Dubrovnik in Croatia (both while sleeping on a cool ship!), hiking in Banff, the Dolomites, Patagonia, or trekking to Machu Picchu.

Long distance hikes we cover include the Coast to Coast and Cotswold Way in England, the West Highland Way in Scotland and other famous UK trails.  

Of course, we often cover doing an El Camino, including the French Way (Camino Frances), the Portuguese Way, the Primitivo, the original way from Oviedo.  We've even BIKED the El Camino!  We have also walked the Camino's sister trail, the Kumano Koda trail in Japan.

If you like the water and to paddle, we've rafted the Colorado River through the Grand Canyon (and we've hiked the Grand Canyon, too!) as well as through Canyonlands National Park.  We've rafted the Middle Fork of the Salmon River, as well as day trips as part of other trips on the Pacuare River in Costa Rica and the Tulley River in Australia.  We've also snorkeled the Galapagos Islands and the Great Barrier Reef!

Naturally, we cover the amazing National Parks, including Olympic, Acadia, the Grand Canyon, Arches, Zion, Arches, Rocky Mountains and more!

Sometimes we even travel on horseback, including in Iceland, Ireland and other exciting destinations!

Often the trips are multi-activity, like the ones in New Zealand, Italy, Argentina, Chile, Peru and Costa Rica.  On multi-activity trips, we mostly hike, but we usually do some biking and paddling as well.

Sometimes we go on expedition cruises, like to Antarctica, the Falkland and South Georgia islands or to Greenland.  Here we hike and get to paddle among the icebergs, while traveling on a small ship for closer access to the amazing landscape!

On occasion we backpack and camp, but mostly we day hike and stay in comfortable inns at night.  We have backpacked St Olav Ways in Norway, the Kungsleden trail in Sweden, in Iceland and Greenland, as well as section hiked the Appalachian Trail, or 'AT'.  

We visit exotic countries like Bhutan, Vietnam and Thailand.  In short, we cover the world's most exciting adventures that regular people can do on their vacation.

Sometimes, we cover skills that you need in order to go on an adventure, from traveling solo, how to choose a tour company, how to save money for travel, how to save money ON travel, and outdoor skills you need to learn (also check out our sister podcast, the Adventure Travel Show podcast (ATSP) for deep dives into adventure skills). 

ATA's mission is to inspire and empower you to lead a bigger life through adventure travel.  Travel the Active Travel Adventures way!
