Mountain Travel Sobek has launched Private Adventures, a selection of 54 private trip itineraries in 33 countries geared toward active and independent travelers. The program is an extension of the tour operator's Explorations program, launched early last year. The success of Explorations led to the creation of Private Adventures, which doubles the amount of this specific product, offering itineraries for both private groups and solo travelers. Destinations include Africa, the Himalayas, Vietnam and the Andes. Mountain Travel Sobek has positioned Private Adventures as "off the shelf" itineraries perfect for family reunions or honeymoons.
