How are Small World Journeys’ trips rated?
You do not have to be an athlete or a fitness buff to join our Small Group Travel; however, our trips are NOT “sight-seeing tours”. Our trips are active, and we will be outside the majority of the day, every day. We can accommodate a range of fitness and skill levels within one trip, and you will always have options. Our two Small Group trips are rated as follows: The Explorer: EASY ACTIVE Activities: Day hiking, sailing, snorkeling and optional SCUBA diving Hiking: Hikes up to 4 miles/6 kms, gentle grade walking tracks. Sailing: Sailing up to 4 hours at a time on open sea. Snorkeling: Swimming ability required, but no previous snorkeling experience necessary. SCUBA Diving: SCUBA certification needed; Intro Dives require no previous SCUBA diving experience, but participants must pass an easily arranged Queensland medical exam if they have any medical conditions. The Adventurer: MODERATE Activities: Day hiking, mountain biking, whitewater rafting, sailing, snorkeling and optional SCUBA
