Deadline nears to travel in amazing around the world travel event.
US – The deadline to enter the 2015 edition of the travel world championship, The Global Scavenger Hunt, is February 1 with only a few spots open for those wanting to compete for “The World’s Greatest Travelers” title and trophy-and chance to earn a free trip around the world with their triumph.
Serious travelers are a competitive breed, from: “How many countries have you been to?” and “We’ve been there, did you do…?” to watching TV’s Amazing Race saying, “I could do that!” Well now they can with a trip, trophy and title on the line.
The Global Scavenger Hunt travel adventure competition aims to return the Indiana Jones romance of travel while testing participants travel IQ mano-a-mano against equally travel savvy globetrotters in an around the world travel contest. It is the travel world championship, and it takes place over 23-days starting April 10, 2015. But February 1 is the last day to enter online at GlobalScavengerHunt.com.
A select group of just 15 teams of two will conduct a series of travel IQ-testing and sight-doing culturally-oriented scavenges in ten secret countries (no guidebooks or online research allowed); overcoming language, cultural barriers, logistic challenges and the heat of competition over the three week event that is designed to have travelers trusting strangers in strange lands. The winners will be crowned “The World’s Greatest Traveler” on May 2, 2015, and presented with a free around the world trip to defend their title in 2016.
The 2014 defending champions, Zoe Littlepage, and her partner Rainey Booth, both from Houston, are poised to defend their titles in this world travel championship event that is life-changing for those participating.
Life-changing because not only are participants given the opportunity to live out their Indiana Jones and Amazing Race fantasies while circumnavigating the globe in one trip, but they will also be given numerous chances to do good with half-day volunteering opportunities; as the event also serves as a platform to raise funds for interest-free micro loans and the building of remote co-ed elementary schools in places of need. Ten events have built ten schools in places like: Kenya, Ecuador, India and Sri Lanka.
The 23-day around the world event is limited to 15 teams of two, and the US$12,500 per person entry fee includes: all international airfare, first class hotels, 40% of meals and special event-sponsored travel gear. Single travelers are welcome to apply and all travelers will be interviewed for suitability.
