Beginner’s Guide To Activity Holidays : Different Types

We look at the top five activity holiday options in this installment of our activity holidays guide.

Activity holidays are available in a wide range of formats and there one ares to suit everyone’s tastes. The main types are thrill-seeking, wilderness, winter, cycling, and special interest.

Thrill-seeking trips are some of the most popular available and include activities such as white water rafting, caving and rock climbing. There are plenty of multi-activity holidays where you can spend a day or two doing each until moving on or you can just stick with one. Go out and experience exciting new things and challenge yourself, this is the ideal way.

Wilderness holidays involve you spending time in various wilderness areas, such as deserts, jungles, plateau, tundra and mountains. You can visit almost any continent to find these terrains, some of the best deserts are the Sahara, Namib, and the Gobi while jungles are found in America, India, or Africa; there are plenty of mountain ranges all around the world while the Antarctic and the Outback are great for adventurers. Camping, trekking, learning skills of survival, cultural lessons, learning of various wildlife are all parts of these type of trips.

Ski cross country and downhill, go snowboarding, you can even go with the lesser tried ones such as dog sledding or snow mobiling. These are often offered in more unusual and unspoiled locations than you would normally see them advertised and allow you to escape the crowds that you would normally come across.

Go biking in the mountains on great expeditions, or perhaps a gentle flat area is more to your liking, both are possible on bike holidays. These tend to be graded according to their intensity, with the percentage of on and off-road riding, and vehicle support indicated on the website or brochure.

Special interest holidays are available for those with a real interest and passion in one subject or a range of subjects. Learn new languages, experience photography, delve into yoga, explore archaeology and conservation. You’ll have an expert in the subject to guide you throughout your trip and will be greatly improved at your chosen subject by the end of it.
