Guided Costa Rica Camino with Homestays and Daily Luggage Transfer
PART II: Join us as we continue our 175 mile/280 km Costa Rica Camino where, over 16 days, you walk from the Caribbean to the Pacific Ocean, across the entire country (indeed the continent and over the continental divide!).  You'll experience an array of ecosystems and see wildlife and fauna in one of the most biodiverse regions of the world.
The hike is fully guided and includes all meals and daily luggage transfer.  When I went, I did a combination of small lodges and camping.  Our guest Laurie and her husband opted for a private tour for the two of them and they stayed in homestays, for a completely different experience than the one I covered last year.
Less than 1000 hikers have completed the Costa Rica Camino as of this recording!  Learn all about it on the show and on the website and Travel Planner.  I recommend going with my affiliate, UrriTrek.  Use Promo Code ATA100 to save $100 on your full Costa Rica Camino.

Patagonia Part II: Hike, Bike and Kayak Argentina and Chile
In this Part II of our Patagonia adventure, we begin at the end of our W-Trek at Lake Grey, where we switch our hiking gear for sea kayaks, and venture out in this beautiful lake to kayak around icebergs and glaciers.
We then move to the other side of Patagonia, from Chile now on to Argentina, where we explore the stunning Perito Moreno glacier, and see the Fitz Roy massif at Glacier National Park.  We also get in some amazing biking to see more beautiful mountains and forests, plus several impoosibly blue and green glacial lakes.  We also check out some flamingo lagoons, and feast on traditional Argentinian fare.
A bucket List adventure to be sure!!!

Patagonia Part I: Hike the W Trek in Argentina 
Patagonia ranks in my Top 3 of the ‘Most Beautiful Places’ I’ve seen (and I’ve been to 50 countries and all seven continents).  The rugged granite mountains are often snow capped in glaciers lit up by the sun.  Those same glaciers have turned its many lakes into stunning milky blue and teal oasis that defy description.
In Patagonia, you can hike one of most beautiful hikes in the world, the W-Trek including the French Valley and Grey Lake.  You can also sea kayak around the icebergs and glacier in Grey Lake.  On our trip, we also got in some amazing biking when we were over on the Argentinian side after we hiked and checked out the gorgeous Perito Moreno glacier.  We spent some time eating and exploring the fun gateway cities of Puerto Morales, Punta Arenas, El Chaltan, and El Calafate.
In this Part I, we hike the stunningly beautiful W-Trek in Chile [ 49.7 miles / 80 km · Total Elevation Gain: 8,956 ft / 2,730 ] over the course of four days, all the way to glacial Lake Grey. We stay in refugios, where we also get a hot and tasty breakfast and dinner each night.
Learn all about going on an adventure in Patagonia and by listening to today's show and visiting the website.  See why you will soon be adding Patagonia to your Bucket List!

Hike and Snorkel Adventures in the Galapagos Islands: Part II
Learn all about visiting the Galapagos Islands and where to hike and snorkel.  We discuss what you can see and do, and in particular, we also talk about whether you should visit independently or go with an adventure tour company?  We discuss the pros and cons of both options in this two part series.
Kit visits San Cristobal, Isabella and Santa Cruz islands to go on hikes in the highlands, and takes multiple day tours to outlying uninhabited islands to go snorkeling.  Hear about the incredible wildlife and some of the history of this magical archipelago.
If you want to visit the Galapagos with an adventure tour company, Kit recommends her affiliate Active Adventures.  Use your exclusive ATA Active Adventures Promo Code ATA200 to save $200 OFF any Active Adventures (or their sister, Austin Adventures) tours!

The Grand Canyon is the United States' 15th national park and is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It is also considered one of the Great Wonders of the World. Ontario-based climber Mike Grainger talks about his experience whitewater rafting on the Colorado River. He also gets to hike on the trip, and shares how a hybrid trip allows for couples and families to participate in the same adventure at their own skill and comfort level. He says this trip is worth every penny as your adrenalin is sure to be racing going through the rapids.  This popular episode was first released in the fall of 2017.
