Zero in on a travel adventure with Specialtytravel.com

Google “yacht cruising” and you’ll get 1,370,000 hits. “Rock climbing schools” will get you 1,360,000 hits, and “ecotourism lodges” will pull up 960,000 possible matches. Yahoo will narrow down your search for “dude ranches” to just 565,000 web sites or “barge cruising” to only 305,000 sites.

“Goggle and other search engines are, without a doubt, profoundly powerful tools. They’ve absolutely transformed how we access information—and how quickly we demand it,” says Steen Hansen, Co-Publisher of Specialty Travel Index (Specialtytravel.com). “But if you’re trying to get to 1000 of the best places to go before you die, you‘d rather spend your time on your journeys, not on the World Wide Web”.

Specialtytravel.com focuses your online search. With extensive listings and drop down menus for both geographical location and specific activities, you can instantly pinpoint the exact vacation activity and location you’re looking for.

Select “safari” from Apecialtytravel.com’s pull down activity menu, for example, and you’ll find some of the best safari outfitters in the world, with enough detail provided to be able to make your choice with confidence and then click through to the safari operators own web site for even more information. Google “safari’, and you’ll find those outfitters buried amidst thousands of references to Apple’s web browser, online books, bars, RV’s, strollers, lingerie, or khaki colored clothing lines.

The power of the web is immense, but the power of editing is priceless.

In addition to an easy to use way to research travel adventures as diverse as goat packing in Utah, hot air ballooning in Africa, rafting in Idaho, ice climbing in Alaska, art classes in Florence, or wine tasting in France, Specialtytravel.com also offers travel articles, links, and travel specials.
