Best Adventure Travel Companies {On Earth}

Twenty different rivers serve as the staging grounds for this company's expedition-style paddling trips in ultra-remote Canadian and Alaskan wilderness areas. You might go whitewater canoeing through Canada's deepest canyons on the Class III Nahanni River or rafting through rare blue glacier bear territory and past icebergs on Alaska's Tatshenshini River. You'll camp at night and dine on local delicacies such as caribou, musk-ox, Arctic char, and wild Pacific salmon.
