Travel Personalities:
ADVENTUROUS TRAVELERS
If you imagine yourself bungee jumping in New Zealand, running with the bulls in Pamplona, dancing until 6 in the morning in Berlin, heli-skiing from the top of a mountain in Banff or boating down the Amazon, all signs point to you being an adventure traveler.
Of course, you don’t need to be a part of a tour to have an adventure, but if you’re not sure what adventure travel means or if you just want an idea of what kind of companies operate tours and which ones to use, it’s a great place to start.
Recommended destinations for adventure travelers: New Zealand, Brazil, Bolivia, Nepal/Tibet, Tanzania, India, and Egypt.
ROMANTIC TRAVELERS
If your travel dreams are populated by the perfect sunset on a secluded beach in the Seychelles, gondola rides in Venice, and a honeymoon for the storybooks, this is probably you.
Travel can be an amazing way to connect with your partner, or even meet someone new! The notion of taking off to far-flung places is a romantic idea in itself, so grab your partner, your passports, and get out and see the world.
Recommended spots for romantic travelers: Santorini, Venice, Paris, Buenos Aires, Goa, Bali, Phuket, Fiji, Tahiti.
INTELLECTUAL TRAVELERS
If travel is just another way you broaden your internal encyclopedia with art, culture, and history, and your dream itinerary includes days filled with museums, archeological sites, groundbreaking architecture and traditional experiences, you may be an intellectual traveler.
Lucky for you, destinations all over the world cater to the student inside of all of us. The world’s full of lessons, and travel is the way to learn them.
Recommended regions for intellectual travelers: Europe, India, Japan, Machu Picchu, Istanbul, Cairo, Luxor, and Aswan.
FIRST-TIME TRAVELERS
Will this be your first time traveling internationally? A little nervous about flying overseas? Concerned that you don’t know what you don’t know?
Those are all normal concerns for first-timers. Don’t worry. There are lots of places that’ll present much less of a cultural shock where you can ease yourself into the world at large. You’ll be a pro before you know it.
Recommended stops for first-time travelers: London, Paris, Rome, Costa Rica, Australia, New Zealand.
DANGER JUNKIES
If you prefer to live on the edge and explore destinations widely considered off-the-beaten-path or even unsafe, you’re probably a danger ju**ie at heart. Your ideal trip includes Ghana, possible brushes with the FARC in Colombia, or meeting some Maoist rebels in Nepal. Robert Pelton is your personal idol.
You’re a risk taker and enjoy finding destinations that give you the thrills you desire. Of course, we caution our travelers to read US State department warnings, as well as the warnings posted by other nations (that said, many warnings can be colored by political agendas).
Recommended locales for danger ju**ies: Tibet, Colombia, Uganda, Papua New Guinea
ALL, A COMBINATION, OR NONE OF THE ABOVE
Most people want to include elements of every different type of travel in their around the world experience, and we certainly encourage you to do so, too. The best way to prepare for an extended journey is to be completely honest with yourself about what you want to accomplish with your RTW trip and how you want to experience the world. The truth is that most travelers don’t fit neatly into one travel personality type. Still, it’s important to think about what kind of activities and attractions appeal to your personality, not just what cities you want to visit or on what airlines you’ll be flying. Another way to narrow down the endless possibilities while making complex travel plans is to identify how you like to travel, i.e., your travel style.
