Staying fit and active while on vacation is a major balancing act, especially if like me your idea of a dream vacation involves access to unlimited drinks (The adult beverage variation please,!), rich local cuisines (Did someone say local breads and Carbs!?), basking in the warm Capri Sun on some exclusive exotic beach and just not having to be any particular place at any particular time (Especially not the gym). However, because health and fitness has become more of a lifestyle to me rather than a “must- do” check box on my long list of daily tasks and routines (Huff!), It has become integral for me to find tour groups and operators  that encompasses my idea of balance with fitness,  play, adventure, relaxation and stress free vacation planning. Here is a great article by Travel & Leisure Magazine that highlights some of the world’s best tour operators that offers such balanced vacations. Below I have listed 3 of the Top 10 Tour Operators that specifically focuses on active and adventure travel like cycling, hiking and walking historical tours of cities and vast country lands:

·         Classic Journey

·         VBT Bicycing & Walking Vacations

·         Journey’s Within, A Wild Frontier’s Company

Who says you can’t have a dream vacation and yet still have that peace of mind that your New Year fitness goals remain intact!?

    Why Do I Travel?

    With a passion for people, places and all things that are cultured; Oh yeah and a good pair of high heels, I embark on different journey’s around the world fueling my self growth, igniting my awareness and opening my perception to different ways of living in order to embrace the similarities across cultures that bring people together instead of differences like language, customs or religion that are believed to keep people a part.
