In general, nearly all adventure tourism products have evolved from the existing forms of adventure and outdoor recreational pursuits, such as mountain climbing, hiking, caving, scuba diving, kayaking, and skydiving.
Within these occurrences, professional and specialised adventure tour operators have pro-actively converted the prevailing outdoor or adventure recreation activities into purchasable tourism packages to meet the specific needs and demands of the adventure tourist markets.
The continuum of adventure tourism products and activities is wide-ranging and can be regarded as sufficiently providing an adequate scope across all geographical spectrums.
Similarly, provision of several adventure tourism activities that are previously limited to specific groups of participants (requiring distinctive competencies such as paragliding and scuba diving) have been made possible and affordable to a wide variety of prospective participants.
