Adventure Networks is a brand new marketing and booking solution for booking adventures, activities and tours. Offering a huge range of adventures and activities from the best adventure providers, organised by suitability, location, duration and location Adventure Networks makes it easy for customers to find and book adventures online and providers to market and sell their tours.
Adventure Networks will launch their first destination site later this year. AdventureScotland.net will bring together the best adventure and activity providers in Scotland in one place and offer live availability and booking for the fantastic activities and tours they offer.
Why am I writing about Adventure Networks? I am a director of the company and one of the drivers behind Adventure Networks which aims to revolutionise the adventure industry in the UK. In the past six years of building up Macs Adventure Walking Holidays I have focused on improving the customer experience in finding, navigating and booking our adventures. This has enabled our business to grow exponentially. As I am closely involved in the outdoor and adventure market in Scotland it has become increasingly clear that our business is the exception rather than the rule.
A tiny minority of adventure activity providers in Scotland have online booking availability and activity details are spread across hundreds of individual websites. Putting a trip together involving multiple activities and tours is close to impossible. Adventure Networks aims to address this need, improving visitor experience in Scotland and helping activity providers to market and sell their amazing tours.
Several adventure and activity providers have already commited to joining Adventure Networks and Adventure Scotland. We are extremely excited about the potential of Adventure Networks and look forward to welcoming our colleagues in the adventure travel industry in Scotland to this exciting initiative.

This is a great idea, we’ve been partnering with http://www.ibooking.com to allow people to book online. It’s worked extremely well. I’m good friends with the guy from Ibooking if he might help you.
Best of Luck with the new venture
Paul, I am running Adventure Networks with Neil. I’m really glad you like the idea and I’d love to have a chat to you about it, and ibooking. It would be great if you let me know the best way to contact you. My email is ali@adventurescotland.net. Look foward to hearing from you soon!
Hi Paul,
Sorry for not getting back to you sooner. We will definitely be in touch with both yourself and ibooking soon. I am really excited about Adventure Scotland as I think it will be a real step change in the adventure and activity booking industry in Scotland. In order to compete on a world scale the adventure industry in Scotland needs to have online booking and availability so that visitors to Scotland can easily book the world class adventures which so many suppliers offer.
Pulling them all together in AdventureScotland.net so that the content is available through multiple distribution channels will improve customer experience and I have no doubt that it will increase sales for all adventure operators.
I look forward to speaking to you and working together.
Neil
