The company states that its trip planners have personally visited the destinations they offer.

Adventure Life indicates that it maintains affiliations with more than 150 small ships and works with local partners in the destinations. The company reports over 27 years of experience organizing trips. It also offers a 5% rewards program for repeat travelers, applicable to various operators, brands, and destinations.
