What you can look forward to
Carefully-Designed Itineraries
We’ve done the research for you
Trust us when we say that if it’s on our itinerary, it’s worth doing. We’ve been there, we’ve done the research, we work with the best partners. We intentionally design all our itineraries, and we believe that every trip includes the absolute best activities that we know of. This is our personal promise to you.
RAD, adventurous people
Come as you are!
We can’t do this without YOU. Nearly all of JUMP participants say the best part of our trips is the GROUP itself, and about a third of JUMP participants are repeats. Yes, for real. (You’ve been warned!) Whether you are flying solo or traveling with friends or partners or family, if these trips speak to you, they are for you. Let’s skip the awkward silences and just be friends.
Professional Partnerships
You’re in great hands
Let’s be clear on one thing: we organize and host our trips, but we are not the guides! We partner with professionals on the ground in our destinations who have been guiding and operating trips for YEARS, because it’s a big important job, and it needs to be done excellently. We do what we’re good at, they do what they’re good at, and together, we all create the magic.
IMPACTFUL TRAVEL
We give back AND forward!
We prioritize sustainability through working with local people in our destinations, using our bodies to propel us instead of vehicles, taking the roads less traveled, and even removing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere through our pledge with Tomorrow’s Air. Whether you travel with us or not, we invite you to learn about and prioritize sustainability alongside us.
