Myth & legend adventure trips
Some of the oldest and most widespread stories are of adventures. From Homer’s The Odyssey to Sir Thomas Malory’s Le Morte d’Arthur, myths and legends are the common stories at the root of our universal existence. They’re found in all cultures and in all literature, ranging from the Greek myths to fairy tales, legends, heroes and stories drawn from all of the world’s history.
Mythologist Joseph Campbell proposed, in his notion of the monomyth in “The Hero’s Journey” that the heroic mythological stories from culture to culture followed a similar underlying pattern, starting with the “call to adventure,” followed by a hazardous journey, and eventual triumph. The adventure novel exhibits these “protagonist on an adventurous journey” characteristics as do many feature films.
Sacred travel, metaphysical tourism, or spiritualized travel
Growing in popularity attracting travelers and New Age believers involving destinations to “spiritual hotspots” on Earth. These travelers see the journey as more than just tourism and take the trips in order to heal themselves and the world. The travel is considered by many scholars as transcendental, a life learning process or even a self-realization metaphor. Destinations are often ancient or religious sites where there is a mystery concerning their origin or purpose, such as Machu Picchu in Peru, Chichen Itza in Mexico, the Pyramids of Egypt, the Camino de Santiago in Spain or Stonehenge in England.
