Extreme or alternative holidays are becoming more and more popular as our world seems to be ever shrinking. If you have done the lying in the sun holiday, the driving holiday, the camping holiday and you need something a bit more, then here you go.
TOP 5 EXTREME HOLIDAY DESTINATIONS:
1- MOUNT EVEREST
Here is a holiday for those looking for excitement, adventure and who have non-stop energy. Why not climb Mount Everest? At a mere 8,850 m high it should be a simple for you. Mount Everest is in Tibet and are estimated to grow approximately 6-8cm per year. Climbing enthusiasts will love this holiday as it will really have you feeling "on top of the world". You can book your holiday through www.kumukaworldwide.com and they will arrange anything from a family adventure tour, Everest Trecks to a full mountain climb.
2.- BASE JUMPING IN THE GRAND CANYON
So you want something a little lower than Mount Everest and want to feel your survival instinct kick in? Then why not try base jumping off the Grand Canon in the USA? Before you go and sew your parachute together you should check with the tour operaters as this holiday is for experienced jumpers only. For those experienced jumpers...this is your holiday! You have thrown yourself off buildings and bridges so why not try throwing yourself off the Grand Canyon. Such beautiful scenery on your way down and up and down again! This tour can be arranged when you arrive and stay an many of the beautiful hotels in the area. What's keeping you?
3. - WHITE WATER RAFTING IN AFRICA
Now here is a holiday for the very brave; white water rafting down the Zambezi River in Africa. A thrilling adventure packed holiday for those who want rushes to their brain. If you are a learner in this sport then it is vital that you know that the Zamiezi River in Africa is a butt-clenching ride and has the reputation of being the fastest, most terrifying and thrilling rapids in the world. The Zambeizi is Africa's fourth largest river system after the Nile, Zaire and the Niger Rivers. White water rafting on the Zambezi takes place below the Victoria Falls and is classified as a Grade 5 ride. So, if you want a butt-clenching experience you can book your holiday directly online from www.shearwateradventures.com which is based beside the Victoria Falls.
4.- PENGUIN WATCHING IN ANTARTICA
For a more sedate holiday and for those who have done all of the above three then why not go Penguin Watching in Antartica? Please remember to bring along plenty of sweaters as in the Summer the temperature is minus 30 and the Winter temperatures can drop as low as minus 65. So, with that in mind if you are happy to go on a tour of Antartica then you should contact www.polar-quest.com. You can take a pleasure cruise or an adventure trip to Antartica and will see some of the world's most isolated places. If you are interested in wildlife then a trip to Fernandia or Isabela Islands. Just remember, wrap up.
5. - 10 DAYS IN SPACE
For those of you who "money is no problem" then I have just the holiday for you. For approximately $20 billion dollars why not spend 10 days in space? Float around for 10 whole days on the International Space Station which is more that 200 miles above the earth. For this holiday you would need very serious contacts in NASA and be prepared to live in anti-gravity for the entire trip. The attire is quite flash, silver spacesuits, beautiful fish-bowl hats and the most wonderful view you have ever seen. If you suffer from naused when travelling then this is not the holiday for you. So, if you have $20 billion dollars burning a hole in your pocket and you have been there, got the T-shirt and done that....contact www.spaceflight.nasa.gov/station/ or phone up your friend and pack your bags lightly.
