Adventure travel can be the experience of a lifetime, but it pays to be well prepared. Good planning can make sure your trip is safe, fun and easy for everyone.

Before you head out, do your research and apply some common sense. The more problems you can anticipate and solve for yourself, the less likely a small incident will ruin your day. We live by the motto, plan for the worst and hope for the best. Things will inevitably go wrong at some point but that doesn’t need to be stressful, if you’re well prepared.

We certainly don’t have all the answers, but we’re learning all the time, and well on our way to becoming experts. We’re sharing all the tips, tricks and shortcuts we’ve learned along the way, either through painstaking research or on-the-go experience. We hope it saves you a few hours on Google or a few hours by the side of the road one day. Who knows, it might even save your relationship!
