Gap Adventures has again been recognized by National Geographic Traveler in the magazine's 2011 "Tours of a Lifetime" list. For seven consecutive years, National Geographic magazine has selected a Gap Adventures tour as one of its "25 Best New Adventure Trips of the Year". This company offers more than 1,200 adventure travel trips to all seven continents.
Gap Adventures puts together small group adventures, safaris and expeditions. The trips are a mix of cultural journeys, wildlife encounters and active adventures designed for travelers who want off-the-beaten track,sustainable and face-to-face travel experiences, whether riding on the roof of a train in India, navigating the Amazon in a dugout canoe or hiking on back roads through Europe.
Gap Adventures was founded by Bruce Poon Tip as a 20-year old in 1990 with just two credit cards (total credit limit of $20,000) and the belief that other travelers share his same desires to experience authentic adventures in a reasonably priced and sustainable manner. Bruce's love for local cultures and his commitment to change the way people vacation have helped him negotiate his way to the top of the fast-growing adventure-travel business.
