Amazing Adventure Challenges

Large Minority exists to provide you with the best gosh-darned adventure holidays in the world! From driving tuk tuks across Sri Lanka and Cambodia to sailing in the Philippines and exploring the Amazon Rainforest, we make the surreal, real. We’ve put in the hard graft and organised most things for you.  All you have to do is turn up and enjoy the adventure. Checking a map every now and then is encouraged, but ultimately optional.

Our adventure trips are Challenges. They’ll challenge you mentally and physically, but there’ll be enough help and support along the way to get you over the line. During the days, you’ll be set checkpoints to reach and challenges to complete, and it’s up to you and your teammates to come up with the best way to get stuff done. During the evenings, whether you’re camping next to a remote lake or nestling in to a boutique hotel, you’ll be toasting your success and swapping the day’s stories with your fellow adventurers. And boy, will there be stories.

And the best part? Our adventure holidays are designed to benefit the countries we visit. We make sure our trips give more to the locals than they take, so you can rest assured that your kickass adventure will have a direct, positive impact on the communities you’ll pass through.
