Win $5000 Toward the Adventure Vacation of Your Choice!

Every Friday I share a great travel contest I’ve come across.  And while today isn’t different in that aspect, what is different is that the contest I am telling you about today can only be entered through a limited number of websites.  Which gives you higher odds of winning!


Last week I was contacted by Austin-Lehman Adventures.  Family Rambling has been selected as one of their “Top 125 Best Travel Blogs” and with that honor comes the opportunity to offer my readers a giveaway that can only be entered through the websites of the semi-finalist blogs.

About Austin-Lehman Adventures

Austin-Lehman Adventures specializes in small-group, high-end adventure travel.  ALA immerses its guests in one-of-a-kind, enriching experiences that capture each destination’s unique sense of place. By integrating activities like hiking, biking and rafting, each traveler experiences a destination in a highly memorable, fun and engaging way, to go beyond just “seeing” a destination.

ALA says it is the tour company for those who “don’t like tours”.  On adult trips the maximum number of guests is 12; on family trips the maximum number of guests is 18.  Trips feature “off the beaten path” experiences, premium hotels and exceptional dining.

You can choose your adventure from 60 different itineraries in 28 countries.  After looking through their adventures I found a few that would offer great family experiences- or just a nice trip for two.

One on my bucket list is the Europe Bike Tours-  a 7 day cycling trip through the beautiful Mosel Valley in Germany.

Family Biking Vacation

Yellowstone Family Vacations- 6 days with an expert guide, family friendly activities and adults only time.

Montana Family Vacations- 6 days of fun in Big Sky Country including hiking, horseback riding and rafting.

Glacier Park Lodge and Grounds

And another from my bucket list, terrific Grand Canyon Vacation Packages- options include hiking or relaxing in a secluded oasis  with waterfalls and spring fed pools.

Or maybe you would choose something completely different.  (I’m also interested in the Austria Family Trip- I love The Sound of Music!)

Enter to Win $5000 Toward the Adventure Vacation of Your Choice

Prize is a $5,000 credit for two (2) people towards any Austin-Lehman trip, which can be applied to any ALA trip depending on trip availability.  Depending on the vacation you choose that will fully cover your trip.  (Airfare not included.)

Entering to win is very easy.

  • Where it asks which blog you came from enter this URL:  http://familyrambling.com/ (This is VERY important!  Because if the winner comes from Family Rambling I also win the same prize!)

One entry per person.  Winner will be chosen by Austin-Lehman Adventures at random.  Contest ends May 19, 2011.  Rules can be found on the entry page.

The Grand Canyon trip sounds great! But so do all the trips! We'd have to take the little guy, though I can't see him lasting on the hikes. We'd need mules, like they had on the Brady Bunch!!

Every place sounds great! I've been to the San Juan Islands and loved it! I would love to return someday, but I would probably pick somewhere I haven't been. I would love to go to Costa Rica or the Galapagos Islands@ Both are on my bucket list. Of course, going to Croatia, where many of my family are originally from would be amazing. Then again, taking the family to Yellowstone would be fun! I'll take one of each trip, please! :)

If I were to win, I would love to go out West to like Montana or Wyoming! Its one part of the US I've never been too and have always wanted to see! Of course, I wouldn't mind applying the winnings towards my trip to Ireland later this Summer as well ... if that's allowed, of course! I'm so happy to have found this amazing website! You have some wonderful information here! Hoppy Easter!!!! Thanks ... Mary

Oh, and as for "kids" I have none so sadly they shant be going with me; however, I would absolutely LOVE taking a few good friends with me (or even people I've NEVER met ... could be loads of fun, ya know LOL) or even my husband of nearly 25 years if I could only forcibly extract him from the sofa long enough to take the adventure with me! Life is precious and can be gone in a split second ... you've gotta live life to its fullest while you are here on this Earth! I want to DO IT ALL and SEE IT ALL ... no stone unturned and no path undiscovered! I have a zest for adventures and the thrill and enjoyment of seeing places I've never been to before ... soaking in the local culture and experiencing the lives of those who cross my path ... isn't that what its all about????

After I saw your tweet each time I went on Twitter I had to enter. :)

Yellowstone and Montana are in my top 10 places I want to visit. If I won I'd see if I could swing Yellowstone first.

I would go to Alaska; if I win, you will go along.

I'll wish you the best luck, then!

What a great prize! There are so many options to choose from. I've always wanted to go on safari, but I don't think I could handle the flight to Africa. If we win, I'll likely choose a Grand Canyon or Yellowstone trip. It would be awfully fun to go to Italy, though!
