The Active Travel Adventures podcast inspires and empowers you to lead a bigger life through adventure travel. We scour the planet for the most fun and beautiful active vacations, whether it’s climbing Machu Picchu, rafting the Colorado river through the Grand Canyon, walking the El Camino in Spain, or bicycling the stiletto heel of Italy. The common denominator is that you have to MOVE: either hike, bike, paddle and/or horseback ride for part of each day! The bar is set that my reasonably fit 58 year old body can do these adventures and so can YOU! These adventures aren’t crazy hard or dangerous like climbing Mount Everest… they are doable, epic fun vacations for those that are in decent physical shape. Most have a difficulty rating of 3 out of 5, so if you’re in reasonable shape, particularly if you are willing to train a bit, you can do these trips! All adventures offer a fascinating and unique way to immerse yourself in another culture or destination.

Behind the Scenes of Hurtigruten’s MS Fram

Listen to the Podcast below: I trusted Hurtigruten, world expedition leader (and the first!), to take me on my epic Antarctica expedition (including the Falkland and South Georgia Islands).  I was so impressed with their operation, that once I got home, I reached out to see if they’d be interested in becoming an affiliate with Active Travel Adventures, which I am delighted to say, they readily agreed that we’d be a good match.

What to Pack for an Antarctica Expedition

Here’s What to Bring for your Antarctica Expedition Fortunately, you won’t need to pack as much as you think you will for your Antarctica expedition!  You wear the same things over and over again, and there is a laundry service on board.  I also packed many quick dry clothes so I could wash them in the sink – there’s a wind up clothes line in your shower.  Note that these are Amazon affiliate links and
