Hey {{first_name | Explorer}},

This is Adventure Fix, the newsletter that helps you discover extraordinary journeys and experiences across the globe.

Here’s what we've got for you today:

Pictured Rocks up in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula is one of those places that kind of takes you by surprise.

You hear “Midwest” and don’t necessarily think turquoise water and towering cliffs, but that’s exactly what you get here.

The cliffs, some of them more than 200 feet tall, are streaked with all these wild colors from the minerals in the rock. Reds, oranges, greens... it almost looks like someone painted them.

The best way to see it all is from the water.

There are boat tours if you want to sit back and take it in, or you can hop in a kayak and paddle right beneath the cliffs, past caves and waterfalls that pour straight into Lake Superior.

One of Parque Tepuhueico’s most exciting experiences is the chance to search for the “Five Little Giants.”

That’s what they call five of Chiloé’s rarest and most fascinating animals: the pudú, Darwin’s fox, monito del monte, kodkod, and the huillín (a type of river otter).

They’re all pretty small, but they’re a big deal—some are endangered, and most people have never even heard of them, let alone seen them in the wild.

Tepuhueico’s mix of native Valdivian rainforest, freshwater streams, and wild coastline makes it thhe best spots in the world to find them.

You head out with a guide, walking quiet trails, checking camera traps, and doing nighttime hikes where you might catch a flash of eyes in the trees.

Sometimes you’ll spot a pudú right from the road or see a Darwin’s fox trotting near the cabins. Other times, it’s about paying attention to the small stuff—tracks, calls, movement in the leaves.

Unlike many wildlife tours, this one isn’t about racing from sighting to sighting—it’s about slowing down, tuning in, and letting the forest reveal itself on its own terms.

Imagine waking up in a giant bird’s nest, perched high above the African floodplains, with nothing but wild Zambia stretching out in every direction.

That’s exactly what you get at Chisa Busanga Camp—a one-of-a-kind safari experience where your “room” is a beautifully crafted woven nest sitting about 12 feet off the ground.

It’s cozy, unique, and gives you epic views of the Busanga Plains right from your own private deck.

The whole camp is run on solar power, and even the safari vehicles and mountain bikes are electric, so game drives are quiet and you feel more in tune with the wildlife.

There’s a cozy little main area where you can hang out, grab a drink, or take a dip in the plunge pool between activities. At night, the fire pit is the perfect spot to relax, swap stories, and listen to the bush come alive.

Activities are all about getting out and exploring. You can head out on game drives, go for walking safaris, or ride e-bikes across the plains.

The wildlife is next level—lions, cheetahs, wild dogs, buffalo, and tons of birds.

If you're into birdwatching, it's paradise. And the guides are super knowledgeable, friendly, and clearly love what they do.

It’s not just another safari lodge, it’s an experience that feels thoughtful, intimate, and totally different from the big-name parks.

If you're after something remote, beautifully designed, and deeply connected to the land, Chisa Busanga checks all the boxes.
