ABOUT DIFFICULTY

The level of difficulty of our expeditions is based on three factors present in any expedition:

  • Physical effort;
  • Autonomy;
  • Isolation.

So we have:

Intermediate – from 6 am to 8 am daily physical activity

Difficult – above 8h of daily physical activity

Autonomy

Intermediate – expedition with a few days in full autonomy

Difficult – expedition in full autonomy

Isolation

Easy – expedition in contact with civilization throughout the program

Intermediate – expedition with a few days without contact with civilization

Difficult – expedition without any contact with civilization

ABOUT STYLE

With regard to the style of our expeditions, there are three defining characteristics.

Although these characteristics are always present in all expeditions, there is always one or another that stands out in comparison to the others. These characteristics are:

  • Cultural Immersion;
  • Adventure;
  • Wildlife.

Thus we have:

Cultural immersion

Medium – some contact with local culture or with cultures different from the western one

Intense – expedition specially designed to explore, to know and to live in loco with other cultures, indigenous tribes, nomad tribes or ancient civilizations. Great contact with the local culture or with cultures different from the occidental one.

Intense – expedition specially designed to explore remote regions through unusual means of progression, outside the comfort zone and with great possibility of unexpected events

Wildlife
