Picking an adventure travel company isn’t easy. Where do they go? What is the cost? Do they have family trips? There are a number of good adventure travel companies, but my two favorites are Austin-Lehman Adventures and Mountain Travel Sobek. They both deliver more bang for your buck.

In May 1991, two outstanding adventure travel companies, Mountain Travel and Sobek Expeditions, combined operations. At the time, Mountain Travel was renowned for pioneering trekking and mountaineering in remote regions around the world, while Sobek had become famous for its exploratory expeditions on previously un-run international rivers. Both had also developed a wide portfolio of related adventure trips around the world and each had earned a reputation for pioneering destinations in remote, unexplored regions around the globe.

We featured a trip Mountain Travel Sobek is doing in November led by co-founder John Yost, it's happening in November through Laos & Bhutan so if you know anyone that's interested tell them to hurry and sign up soon!

There are tons of other great adventure travel tour operator options on there - most are local operations that we feature, but are just as safe and reliable as the bigger operators as well.
