The Best Overland Trips to Take in 2022
Sri Lanka
For wildlife enthusiasts, Sri Lanka is paradise. This tropical getaway involves two game drives through the Minneriya and Yala National Parks, where you'll get the chance to spot wild elephants, crocodiles and leopards. Beyond, there are opportunities to go whitewater rafting, plus explore ancient castles and journey on a train through rice fields and tea plantations.
Lapland's Sámi community
Expose yourself to Sámi culture on this five-day Finland holiday. Here, you'll learn about the Sámi way of life at a reindeer farm, and enjoy a traditional three-course Lappish dinner. Highlights include jisledding through the snowy wilderness, ice fishing and cross-country skiing.
Southern Morocco
After a day hiking in the Atlas Mountains, it's on to Taghazout Bay, where you'll learn to surf and explore the waterfalls of Paradise Valley. Stretch out those tired muscles at an optional yoga class, or save your relaxation for the final day, which includes a barbecue and live music performances on the beach.
Utah's Canyon-lands
This is for true adventurers only — you're heading into the heart of the American West, where the Rockies meet the desert. Explore the red rocks of Devil's Kitchen in Utah, go rafting on the Colorado River and hike forested trails through the Rocky Mountains. You can relax in the steaming Strawberry Hot Springs. For a different thrill, cocktail hour is held at the Stanley Hotel-which inspired "The Shining."
