Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know which level is right for me?
Review the Compass Level listed on each trip page and read the descriptions carefully. Being honest about your current fitness and comfort level helps ensure the best experience.
Do I need to be an athlete to join a MORE Adventure?
No. Many MORE Adventures are designed to be welcoming or lightly active. Higher-level trips simply require preparation and readiness for challenge.
What if I feel between two levels?
That’s common. When in doubt, choosing the lower level often leads to a more enjoyable experience. Our team is always happy to help you decide.
Why does fitness level matter?
Proper preparation ensures safety, enjoyment, and group cohesion. When travelers are well-matched to the adventure, everyone benefits.
What are you waiting for?
Travel insurance
Travel insurance is designed to help cover your expenses if something goes wrong on your trip, and fill any gaps that wouldn’t be covered by your primary health insurance or other insurance you may have. It’s not meant to be a substitute for health insurance and won’t cover non-essential overseas medical treatment, such as routine exams.
