Unusual Travel Adventures

GeoEx revels in creating unusual, eye-opening adventure tours—and has a history of blazing trails in travel. We led the first guided travel treks to the Kangshung Face of Everest, Mustang region of Nepal, and along the Shackleton route in South Georgia. Our travelers were the first American groups guided through Burma, post-war Vietnam, and post-Shah Iran. The very definition of "explore" is to travel over new territory. The thrill of discovery fuels travel to the furthest edges of the map, where few have ventured. We go for authentic encounters with people separated by political upheaval or geographic distance, to experience areas that are verging on change or newly opened to visitors. We seize the opportunity to witness rare wildlife in vanishing habitat or forge new trails past seldom-seen scenery, and we come home changed and inspired.
