Have you ever wanted an Instagram worthy adventure for yourself? It can be overwhelming to have so many bucket list adventures to choose from and not know where to start. Anyone can have a picturesque adventure, and we are here to teach you how. Follow along to create your ultimate trip bucket list.
Step One: Follow Wandercamp on Pinterest
It can be highly overwhelming to create a trip itinerary from a wide range of sources. We recommend following (and stalking) our pinterest page. Our expert pins can help you get any information or inspiration you need all in one place. That way you are not spending hours searching through google, but instead have the pleasant experience of exploring our abundant expert advice and curated feed. Trip inspiration has never been so aesthetically pleasing!
Step 2: Choose your Location
When the world is literally the limits, it can be hard to narrow down what type of travel you are aiming for. It is important to decide if you are looking for a lowkey experience, a high intensity expedition, a memorable road trip, or an off the grid adventure.
Once you narrow down what kind of location you are looking for, you can begin to select a location. If you are looking for a high intensity expedition or an abroad adventure, we recommend booking through Acanela Expeditions. The company provides a wide variety of over 70 expeditions in every continent of the World. There is no shortage of affordable yet exciting destination choices through Acanela Expeditions.
If you are looking to stay stateside, The Wander Camp is a great organization to help explore some of the wonders of the United States. With campsites in the Grand Canyon, Zion, Yellowstone, Glacier, Bear Lake, Bryce Canyon and more coming soon, The Wander Camp is the perfect company to book through. You can explore many national parks, or even complete a bucket list worthy national park road trip!
Step 3: Pick your Lodging
Lodging can make or break your trip. Depending on where you are deciding to travel you may opt for a 5 star hotel, a cozy air bnb, or even may consider camping.
Once you have decided what kind of stay you are looking to have, you can further explore which lodging in the area is going to be best for you. If you find yourself looking to travel to one of our campsite locations, we highly recommend booking with The Wander Camp. A step up from rugged camping, The Wander Camp has warm and cozy beds, bathrooms, amenities, and even dining options. We have an entire guide to help you see all that Glamping with us can offer you here. If you are looking to explore nature while still having the comfort of a 5 star hotel experience is perfect for you.
Step 4: Plan your Food
A highpoint of each vacation, no matter how exotic or relaxing, is the food you explore and indulge in. When booking your trip keep in mind your expectations for the kind of food you are seeking! An urban location might take you to a Michelin star restaurant. If a hobo dinner around a campfire sounds like fine dining, you should consider what it takes to prepare for all your campsite cooking needs. There is something magical about tying your meals to your adventure. Try not to overlook the fun food can bring to your trip!
Step 5: Plan your Outfits Ahead
It’s no secret that all pinterest worthy bucket list trips feature cute clothes and planned outfits. The vibe of your trip can be defined by the comfort, style and functionality of the clothes you plan to bring. Keep that in mind as you realistically plan your bucket list trip! Will an outfit make or break the satisfaction of your bucket list adventure? Then don’t be afraid to be particular and plan what will help you feel confident and happy.
Step 6: What to Pack
Packing can be the biggest stress of any bucket list adventure. You want to make sure you have everything you might need, but it can be tricky to think of everything in advance. Check out what amenities your lodging may have, what activities you are planning to do, and how accessible a nearby store is. It never hurts to be over prepared!

Anyone can have a bucket list trip if they plan carefully and think ahead. Assessing what you truly want and need to make your trip worthwhile will help you design your trip bucket list and accomplish everything you want.
