Here is a look at some of the fascinating experiences that Incredible
Adventures holds in its variegated list of thrills: |

The moment you think of sharks, you think of murderous
great whites popularized in the film Jaws. Now it’s time
to get over your fear. Activities like shark diving and cage
diving, allow you to waltz within touching distance of sharks
from a position of comfort and safety. The shark viewing cages
are specially designed to provide protection, while allowing
divers total freedom of movement and panoramic views. To
make the dives extra safe, the underwater expeditions are
conducted in supervision of marine experts who can also act as
personal guides to the underwater world.
There are several spots where you can get up close and
personal with the king of the ocean. You can go in for a 5-
day live-onboard adventure in pristine Isla Guadalupe off the
coast of Mexico. But if you want to enjoy a tryst with big
beasts somewhere closer to US then there
is a shark dive that departs from San
Francisco, California and takes
you to the Gulf of the Farallons
National Marine Sanctuary.
Incredible Adventures also
conducts a one-day tiger
shark adventure departing
from West End, Bahamas,
which is famous for its
oversized tiger sharks.
South Africa is legendary
mostly for its safaris, but
the sharks populating the ocean along its coastline promise
a different kind of excitement that you can’t afford to miss.
Shark dives depart from the scenic village of Simon’s Town
(close to Cape Town). A professional shark photographer and
an experienced researcher will accompany you throughout
the dive to make your experience memorable and informative.
Then there is Gansbaai in South Africa that is best suited for
cage diving in the area near Dyer’s Island better known as
Shark Alley.
If your adventurous instinct propels you to witness a shark’s
feeding frenzy, then you can try the Sardine Run. Follow the
annual migration of sardines along the Wild Coast of Africa
and witness the feeding frenzy of the ocean’s most majestic
creatures. The area around Key West in (Florida)
is best suited for cage-free shark diving
and shipwreck exploration. And if
you get lucky in one of your
dives at Key West, you
might end up finding
lost treasure. Who
doesn’t harbor
fantasies of being a
treasure hunter in
search of goodies
lost in the sea!
Here is a good way
to get started. |

The Adventure of Zero Gravity
Fly, float and flip through the cabin at
zero gravity. You bounce about the
cabin like human popcorn, as if your
body has become lighter than a puff of wool.
Incredible Adventures offers Zero-G flights
in cooperation with Zero-G Corp. The flights
take place aboard a specially modified FAA
certified Boeing 727 christened GForce One.
These planes perform a series of parabolic
flight maneuvers that counter the forces of
gravity enabling those inside the plane to
experience weightlessness.
As you begin to float inside the plane, you
realize that nothing can compare with your
first encounter with weightlessness. Each
parabola induces the most hair-raising
excitement. The best part of the adventure
lies in the fact that you get to experience
gravity in different stages. Your first stop
is “Mars” for a taste of 1/3 gravity. Next,
you’ll travel to the “Moon” and experience
lunar gravity where you weigh 1/6 what you
do on Earth. You can easily control your
movements as you make small steps and
giant leaps. Finally, you reach outer space,
where you make a tryst with Zero-G. |

So you thought that only highly trained pilots could
fly fighter jets. Wrong! Anyone with enough fire
in his belly can do it.
Through a special arrangement with the people who actually
manufacture the MiGs, Incredible Adventures makes it possible
for you to break the sound barrier in a real military jet fighter.
This adventure begins and ends in Moscow, but the jet flying itself
takes place several hours away in the Russian town of Nizhny Novgorod.
Incredible Adventures will get you there by air and in style via a VIP jet that
has room for six passengers. You will feel like a rock star and the view of
Russia from the sky will be unforgettable.
Once you are at Nizhny Novgorod, you will be escorted past the security
gates and on to the grounds of the Sokol Aircraft Plant. Now you are at the
manufacturing base that supplies military aircraft to more than 30 countries
and employs some of the best pilots in the world. All the personnel at this
base take the business of providing flights to civilians very seriously. This
means they’ll do everything possible to make sure your day at the air base is
incredible and safe. Most flying adventures include a complimentary video and
a souvenir flight suit.
There are different types of planes that you can choose to fly. The MiG-29 UB Fulcrum
is best suited for enacting those “Top Gun” maneuvers. The MIG-31 Foxhound is an
extremely advanced aircraft that can track up to 10 targets during combat missions.
With the L-39 Albatross you can experience some of the most exciting maneuvers
including loops and tail-slides. The MIG-25 Foxbat C, capable of Mach 3.2 speeds, can
rise up to a height of 80,000 feet. Here you will reach a point where the sky is black
above and blue below. |

If Tom Cruise’s escapades in Mission Impossible
fill you with a desperate longing, then now is
the time to turn your fantasies into a reality.
Incredible Adventures can help you participate in
covert operations where you lead the clandestine
life subsumed of suspense, danger and thrill. The
scenarios for most missions take a leaf out of
popular Hollywood thrillers and spy novels. You
could opt for a covert mission where you are part
of an ultra-secret paramilitary unit that plans
to do a covert mission in hostile territory. The
detailed and rigorous training for the mission is
part of the fun.
You will be taken to a secret training base where
a handpicked cadre of Green Berets and contract
mercenaries from world’s toughest special
operations units train you in different skills needed
for the operation. Driving evasively at high speed
both on and off road, combat pistol shooting,
hand to hand combat, surveillance techniques,
explosives and booby traps – these are just some
of the skills that you will be able to master. You
can well imagine the unmatched thrill of
being able to drive, shoot, and fight
like Jason Bourne.
Different covert
operations
follow different
storylines.
You could find
yourself dealing
with hostage
rescue situations,
tailing hardcore
suspects that are a
threat to global security, ramming
barricades, or running enemy vehicles
off the road. Whatever you decide, one thing is for
sure - this is no ordinary vacation! |
| Incredible Adventure packs any number of
experiences that will exhilarate you and send you
on the most amazing thrill of your life. You can
even get a custom adventure designed especially
for your group, large or small. It is quite possible
that you might be the first to indulge in that
particular escapade. In the high-octane world
of Incredible Adventures, real life experiences
increasingly turn out to be much more enthralling
than those plucked from the realm of fantasy. |
