TRAVEL is always a wise decision but when people are tired of standard lists of hot vacation destinations, adventure travel comes for help, offering tons of opportunities to make your trip a success, one to remember forever.
It’s truly tricky to define what adventure tourism exactly means as people think differently about travel as an activity. For some, adventure could mean climbing the dizzy heights of world-famous mountains or unearthing the mysteries of ancient civilizations. For others, it might entail bungee-jumping, rock climbing, scuba diving, or expedition cruising. But no matter where the stream of adventures will take you, one thing is for sure that Adventure Vacations include traveling to a remote location, discovering new cultures and meeting new people, and undertaking a physical activity of some kind through challenging yourself or pushing your limits.
Adventure travelers should accept travel situations as they exist, accepting that things may not always happen exactly as one would prefer or expect. Only in this case they can witness the awesome majesty of the world like never before.
Awakening alone in a paradise island, discovering some of the world’s most amazing corners and experiencing an out-of-the-ordinary adventure vacation, isn’t it a dream of everyone? Today, it’s possible to make this dream come true with Heineken – the world’s most valuable international premium beer brand, which has recently launched the latest (fifth) installment in its reality-style Web series “Dropped,” sending people to remote exotic destinations around the world to film their experiences and the challenges they face and find out if ‘legends are born or made’.
With nothing but basic supplies and a map to orient, these intrepid explorers, with their eyes closed are thrown into unexpected situations far outside of their comfort zone and required to overcome a series of obstacles to see what they are really made of. Heineken calls this a social experiment, which will come to life as the Dropped episodes unfold. And what is interesting, is that viewers are not left out of the adventure. They can take part in an online game to test their own navigation skills by purchasing specially marked packages of Heineken beer.
Previous episodes have seen participants dropped in Alaska, Cambodia, Morocco and Poland. And now Heineken offers a journey to a deserted island in the Philippines. This time around we meet two guys – the Irish Murray and Jakub from Poland, who are blindfolded, taken on a boat and dropped on an island. Then they are handcuffed to each other and left to work out how to get themselves rescued.
The world is changing by the minute. So, what are you waiting for? Adventure travel and get dropped with Heineken to broaden your perspective, find an adrenalin hit and reignite your sense of possibility.
Take a look at the video below that looks at the “Dropped” in the Poland and if you have an appetite for adventure do not lose the chance to become Heineken’s next legend.
