How do you define Adventure Tourism?

Currently, we work off the ATTA definition, where the best types of adventure combine:

  1. Activity
  2. Nature
  3. Interaction with Culture

The ideal adventure travel experience involves all three elements. 90% of adventure tourism is soft adventure – which Ireland is perfect for!
