Are You in Hawaii When Riding the Hulahula?

Wednesday October 8, 2008
Nope. You're actually rafting in Alaska!

It's just one of the journeys you'll read about in "Riding the Hulahula to the Arctic Ocean - a Guide to 50 Extraordinary Adventures." This guidebook written by two long-time adventure travelers offers 24 first-person narratives of intriguing trips to entertain armchair readers, and tell adventure travelers how to arrange their own explorations of off-the-beaten-path destinations and experience familiar locales in new ways. The book, published by the National Geographic Society, includes descriptions of 26 other adventures, with contact information for the companies that offer the trips. These trips were chosen as the top choices for people over age 40 based on a survey by the Adventure Travel Trade Association.
