Galapagos ranked #1 destination by focused adventure travel site

Filed under: Business, North America, United States, Ecotourism, Cruises, Central AmericaAvidTrips this week announced the results of its first Top Adventures survey taken in June 25 at this year's Adventures NYC in Central Park. From a field of 60 domestic and international adventure destinations, the results reveal the world's top three adventure travel destinations as The Galapagos Islands, the South Island of New Zealand, and Machu Picchu respectively. That caught my attention. Going further I discovered a really easy to navigate, focused adventure travel website that offers a wide variety of adventure travel options complete with ratings on difficulty and activity levels, price and more.

"The launch of our annual Top Adventures survey is part of our ongoing efforts to bring the world's most amazing adventure trips to travelers" said Sanem Eruçar, Founder & CEO of AvidTrips.

Respondents were asked to select up to three places they most want to visit. In addition to ranking the Galapagos Islands number one, results revealed differences in desired adventures by age and gender.

The South Island of New Zealand emerged the top pick among female adventurers, followed by Machu Picchu and the Galapagos Islands. Male adventurers picked the Galapagos Islands first, followed by Patagonia and Yosemite National Park.Continue reading Galapagos ranked #1 destination by focused adventure travel siteGalapagos ranked #1 destination by focused adventure travel site originally appeared on Gadling on Sat, 16 Jul 2011 07:00:00 EST.
