At Aventouras, we are experienced travelers and passionate about exploring the cultures and the wonders of the world while simultaneously investing in local communities and the environment. We carefully craft our trips to include a mixture of on- and off-the-beaten path locations, unique activities and memorable experiences. We know these areas personally and all of our trips combine the most popular destinations, unusual locations, multi-sensory activities, native guides, and opportunities to connect with local people. We get so much out of traveling to these places—the people, the ruins, the wildlife, the cuisine, the jungle, the whitewater rafting, hiking, ziplines, kayaking, biking—and we are thrilled to share our favorite places and experiences with you!
