Fun Ways To Travel That You’ve Probably Never Tried Before
Today, I wanted to share some fun ways to travel that you’ve probably never tried. Because as you know, I love to travel. Traveling is one of the most fun activities you can spend your life doing. Taking a few days here and there to see a new part of the world can open you up to so many exciting and exclusive experiences. It’s a lovely way to live, and while it can be a bit expensive, the memories you make are priceless!
However, if you’re traveling to the same places each time, there’s a good chance you’re getting a bit bored right now. You and your travel group are probably ready for some new experiences in new destinations, and you want to try out some new ways of getting around.
And that makes sense! Traveling has a lot to offer – there’s no point doing the same things again and again, no matter how fun they were the first or second time. So pack your bag with your favorite items, make sure you’ve looked up the weather forecast, and then plan a trip like never before.
Here are some fun ways to travel that you’ve probably never tried before but are totally worth trying out:
Do a Travel Challenge
A travel challenge can be anything. As long as it’s fun and gets you out of your comfort zone a little. For example, learning enough of the language that you can participate in a local’s conversation. Or you can try something like ordering an item off the menu at a local restaurant, that you’d never think about eating if you were at home.
Come up with quite a few little challenges like these and get all your travel partners in on them. The person that completes the most of them while you’re all away wins. And gets something like a cash prize or has the final decision on where you go next time!
Go on a Cruise
If you’ve never been on a cruise before, it’s probably high up on your bucket list right now. After all, it’s one of the most popular ways to travel.
Cruising takes you around the world at a slow and steady pace. It gives you time to stop off at some amazing port cities to grab a local bite and get some souvenirs. And then you’re back on board setting off to the next destination. It’s an incredibly luxurious way to travel!
However, cruising tends to be quite expensive, so you’ll want to save up for this option. Of course, the more people who are coming with you, the more you can split the bill, but this isn’t a reliable way to travel as and when you want to. Get the fund started now and then book the cruise for 12 months’ time.
Remote Camping
Ever fancied heading off to a remote location, setting up a tent, and living off the land for a few days? If you haven’t, why not try remote camping sometime in the near future?
It’s a specialist way to travel, but it’s great for people who love traveling as a group. You can rely on each other for certain skills (building a fire, pitching a tent, etc.,) and bond together as you spend your days at the base of a mountain or in the woods.
Remote camping is also good for wildlife and nature lovers. If you take along a drone, you can get some sweeping shots of the landscape and plenty of pictures of usually shy animals; you can click here for some details of the best model to pack.
Sleep on a Train
Sleeper trains are becoming very popular these days! You can get on the train super late at night, spend the night sleeping in a private cabin, and then hop off at your destination to spend the day. Once you’re all down, get back on the train and go home again – easy, simple, and a lot of fun!
Half the fun of taking a sleeper train is knowing you’re traveling in true style. Like the olden days. And that you’re taking your time experiencing the sights and sounds of the landscape around you. I would highly recommend trying out this form of travel. You can make a lot of memories on the journey, and then when you’re tired and want to head home again, you can sleep it all off on the train back.
The reason I added this one is because it’s on my bucket list. I’ve never been on a train before but hope to travel on one at some point. And I think sleeper trains are incredibly convenient for travellers so I hope to use one of those someday. Maybe when traveling in Europe.
Get Someone Else to Book Your Trip
If you want to be truly surprised, and do something truly spontaneous, get someone else to plan and book the trip for you. There are a whole host of companies that provide this service these days, but you can just ask a friend or your partner to do it for you. If they’re coming along, they get to be in charge of the itinerary, and you get to live out your surprise travel dreams!
If you want the trip to work out well for everyone involved, make sure you agree on the budget as a group. Make a list of firm nos and things you’re willing to compromise on. And then let them go free to book the trip. When you’re secure in the knowledge that a hated activity, or a hated form of accommodation won’t even be considered, you’ll feel much happier about this option!

Try Tourist Activities in Your Own City
If you want to do something right now, and you don’t have a big budget or the time to just get on a plane and spend a few days away. Why not try out the various tourist activities in your own city? When you live in a place, you’re unlikely to do everything it has to offer. Especially if you’ve grown up in the area.
If there’s an entertainment complex, check it out. Or if there are some new restaurants in town, go for dinner with a few friends. And if there’s a new festival that attracts a lot of outsiders, why not grab some tickets for yourself?
If you want to travel for fun, try out a trip you’ve never considered before! It’s never a bad idea to experience the many different ways to take a trip.
