Adventure Destinations for Thrill Seekers

The world is brimming with ridiculously exciting places to explore, so to assist you in your mission to experience the adventure of a lifetime we've compiled a list of our personal favourite adventure destinations for thrill seekers. We've tried to identify places mainly in the southern hemisphere to help warm your feet if you're from the frozen north. 

You can now download eBook versions of Lonely Planet as individual chapters for a few euros or dollars, and read them on your tablet, smartphone, eBook reader or laptop.
