While guided tours are mostly for sightseeing and guided visits to museums, parks and shopping centers, there’s one type of guided tours that younger fun loving tourists prefer – guided adventure tours. These are thrill-seeking tours that let tourists engage in sporting and leisure activities considered risky such as mountain climbing, mountain trail hiking and biking, white water rafting, scuba diving, parasailing and ski diving. The tour is guided by a competent Adventure Tour Leader who is trained in the sport or activity being led.
