Adventure by its nature, requires that you be relatively flexible, self- sufficient and accept travel situations. That means plans may not always happen exactly as one would prefer or expect. The constraints of group travelling along with the need to understand and be sensitive to others sharing your trip is important. The most essential element in adventure is its spirit to ‘take things as they come’ and ‘see them pass’.
