There's 3 of us hitting the big 5-0 towards the end of next year and we're looking to mark the occasion by doing something out of the ordinary. All well travelled, family men with plenty of 'life' experiences, would be willing to travel and spend a few quid if necessary but not essential. Vegas has been mentioned but I'd like to do something less obvious although I will go if I have to  ;D

Any suggestions?? Probably 4/5 days max would be the only restriction.

If you're golfers take a bucket list golf trip. Maybe try and take in the Masters.

How about a week out in Africa building a school or something like that. Give something back. Your already well travelled as u say.

I'm a golfer and The Masters is definitely on my bucket list unfortunately neither of the other 2 are so that's unlikely to get the vote..

Vegas is on my list for that big one in 4 years but funny enough I was chatting to wife about my two places to go before I'm physically unable, Machu Picchu being one and base camp Everest... obviously take more than your 4 days target! Though I'd be one for a trek!

None of us are getting out of here alive, so please stop treating yourself like an after thought. Ea

Didn't like Vegas but if you decide to go there do yourselves and spend a few days at the Grand Canyon.

Didn't I say last night I was a family man, I've been asking what I should do for years..

If you are thinking of Vegas type stuff, worth checking out Havasupai Falls in Grand Canyon. You can camp down there, which is in the Havasupai Reservation.
