Adventures in Africa, Australia, California, China, Costa Rica, Ecuador, Egypt, Fiji, Hawaii, Morocco, Spain, and Thailand.  Lodging will be in local guest-houses, small hotels, and occasionally camping.


Blue Water Adventures:  The Blue Water Adventures generally focus on warm water activities such as sailing, SCUBA diving and surfing.  There is no overnight backpacking on any Blue Water Adventures.  The trips have strong educational and certification components.  Blue Water Adventures are offered in Belize, Costa Rica, Fiji, Greece, Hawaii, Italy, New Zealand and Tahiti.  Lodging on a Blue Water Adventure is a mix of camping, small hotels and hostels, and on live-aboard sailboats.


Language & Service Adventures:  Language Adventures are international programs where learning a language, exploring the culture, and getting off the beaten path are an integral part of the adventure.  Features time at accredited language schools working with native speakers, and working on community service projects.  Programs are in France, Spain, or Costa Rica and Guatemala.  Lodging is a mix of hotels, hostels, and village-hosted stays.  Time not in class will be spent exploring cities and participating in adventure activities like windsurfing, whitewater rafting, surfing and zip-lining.


Multisport Adventures:  Our Multisport Adventures offer a range of activities like rafting, rock climbing, or sea kayaking, as well as overnight wilderness backpacking in North America and Europe.
