Small Group Adventure Travel

Adventure travel is not just for young people, broke backpackers and social media influencers. After years of doing this myself I have custom designed options for mature adults who want to experience adventure travel.

Expedition Happiness Tours cater specifically to small groups of mature aged travellers seeking to explore the world in a unique and exciting way. It’s never too late to step out of your comfort zone and see places you have only dreamed about ... safely and in relative comfort of course!

Small Group Adventure Travel

Expedition Happiness Tours is all about small group, adventure travel. With a group of only four to six people we can offer you a more personalised experience compared to large group tours. With fewer people, it is easier to tailor the itinerary to far-away and hard to reach destinations, and there is more opportunity for one-on-one interaction with guides and local experts.

Everywhere an Expedition Happiness Tour goes I have been before, sometimes more than once ... well, often more than once, because I love these places so much. Over many years of travel I have developed relationships with guides and made friends with locals who can offer us insider knowledge and access to hidden gems that you just can’t get with a regular tour.

If you have ever travelled to a place were no one knows your name then no doubt you know that things don’t always go to plan. You need to be flexible. Travelling in a small group means we can change the itinerary and logistics without too much stress to suit the conditions and there is more opportunity for spontaneous activities and exploration.

But, for me, there’s more to it than that. Now more than ever, we need to consider the impact our tourism has on the local economies and the planet as a whole. My goal is for Expedition Happiness Tours to be a benchmark of sustainable travel - that our small group of explorers can have minimal impact on the environment and local communities that we visit. To that end I have chosen guides and accommodation who believe in making sustainable choices for their environment and I want to support their conservation efforts.

What can you expect on a small group adventure tour with us?

While not an exhaustive list, this should give you a bit of an idea:

Hiking and trekking - From the lush jungles of Central Kalimantan in Indonesian Borneo to the snow capped peaks of the Ladakh region of Northern India, you will be lacing up your hiking boots, and seeing some pretty amazing parts of the world. For some people this may be challenging physically, but many hiking trails range from easy to difficult, so there are options for all levels of fitness and experience.

Incredible wildlife - You will see the endangered Bornean Orangutan and we will do our very best to find the elusive Bengali Tiger. But that’s just the tip of the iceberg…there are so many other primates, birds, reptiles and unique insects. Our small group safaris offer the chance to see exotic animals in their natural habitat and learn about conservation efforts from local guides.

Cultural immersions - Our small group tours are a great way to learn about history, art, and architecture, and experience new foods and customs. We will walk around ancient cities, tasting delicious local street food and explore bustling markets. We engage with locals, learn about different customs and traditions, and gain a deeper understanding and appreciation of the places we visit.

Cycling tours - Well, not exactly ‘tours’ but we go bike riding with our guides. Cycling is a great way to explore new destinations, stay active, and challenge yourself. From riding through rice fields and farm land to the colourful streets in Rajasthan, we have a variety of scenic and leisurely rides.

Overall, Expedition Happiness Tours is about a personalised, safe, and sustainable travel experience, the opportunity to meet like-minded individuals and see some totally amazing parts of the world.
