What We Do

why travel with AWP

With AWP you are not a tourist, you are a traveler. Experience the unique beauty of bucket list destinations, work with local communities, create forever friendships, and rediscover yourself. This experience is more than a trip to a cool location; In addition to the regular tourist activities, AWP will take you off the beaten track and present you with extraordinary, once-in-a-lifetime adventures to interact with severe social problems and the amazing people working to solve them. Not only will you learn about the culture of the place you are visiting, but you will also learn about living with more work-life balance and a deeper sense of purpose and meaning.

Socially conscious travel. One of the purposes of life, as well as one of the most fulfilling and meaningful things to do, is to positively influence the world around you. Based on a lot of research on how to avoid the pitfalls of short-term voluntourism, Adventure with purpose gets involved in some hands-on volunteering through local organizations that are working with some of the most vulnerable people in society. Spend time building, planting, painting, and teaching English to kids and creating a lasting impact on the lives of all involved.

Transformational experiences and empowerment tools. Traveling is a great way to relax and refresh from the stresses of work and take a step back and gain a whole new, fresh perspective on yourself and the world around you. All too often the benefits of travel wear off a week or two after you get back home. At Adventure with purpose, we help people consciously process and integrate the insights they are having along the way and empower participants with the tools and the resources they need to live their life with increased clarity, passion, joy, health, and mindfulness when the trip is over

Find your people, and travel together. Simply put, traveling is more fun with someone to share it with. Sometimes the people you already know can't join you, want to do something different, or just aren't up for the adventure. One of the best things about AWP is the people. We attract bright, independent, passionate Students and young professionals, who want to spend their time and money not just traveling and having fun, but also doing something more meaningful whilst they’re at it. Some people come with a friend but fly in solo when they arrive and have made new friends for life by the time they leave. Hang out with a squad from all backgrounds, people who turn out to be friends of friends, and be pleasantly surprised by spending time with people you’ve never had the chance to hang out with before

Spend your vacation exploring, not planning. Planning an excellent trip isn't always a day at the beach. Figuring out where to stay (is it in the "safe" part of town?), pouring over reviews of places to visit, figuring out transportation options, and the like can be a major hassle - especially if you're trying to coordinate with a friend or two. And just when you think you have the perfect itinerary, you show up at the museum and find out they're closed on Mondays. (Seriously, why would they be closed on a Monday?). Back to the internet to make a new plan. 

We plan your trip so you don't have to, with local experts with insider knowledge and experience, but still, give you plenty of flexibility to explore and adventure on your own. Think of us like that friend of yours who just loves to plan trips, but isn't as bossy or annoying - we're cool like that.

Exceptional value for your money. We're motivated by passion, not profit, and are a registered non-profit organization dedicated to providing transformational experiences to Jewish students and professionals. We aim to provide you with a fuller, richer, and more memorable experience than you'd ever be able to have on your own, all for an exceptional value. We've scouted out the best places to day, negotiated group discounts with local suppliers, and don't skimp on the quintessential experiences you dream of when you go to these destinations. 

Unlike other tour providers that charge similar prices and leave you out of pocket if you want to DO anything, we not only take you to great places, we help facilitate awesome experiences while you're there - included in your trip costs!
