I won’t be thwarted again.
Last year, I went on the hunt for the missing grave of Attila the Hun—the "Scourge of God," whose inglorious death led to a secret burial. Now, I’ve got new leads to follow up on, and I need your help.
Join me on a plunge into the old frontier of the Roman Empire and a land which is remarkably underexplored—Serbia. There, we’ll search for the infamous Hun’s grave, and that of history’s original vampire, who locals claim still haunts the region.
On this trip, the first that I’ve opened up to travel companions, you’ll get to experience what I do when I’m off camera.
The adventure begins in Belgrade with an exploration of its famous fortress and some of its many, winding underground tunnels.
Next, the team will branch out on kayak to nearby wooded rivers where rumors of the burial persist.
Changing course, we'll shift our hunt to focus on the resting place of history's original vampire, who has haunted locals up to the modern era.
Finally, the team will divert down to the Bosnian border for a canyoneering expedition in the region's most prized natural wonder.

The essence of travel
If you've seen Road Less Traveled you know what to expect. My passion is to find the edges of a destination which tourist's rarely uncover. In those niches of unusual activities, forgotten communities, and bizarre rituals we find the soul of a place.
We meet people who are more open and authentic. We have experiences that resonate for a lifetime.
The schedules of these tours are designed as travel shows are planned. There will be a central mission with side adventures, plus a little downtime to lean back and savor the moments. My tours will require a modicum of physical fitness and a touch of risk. You'll return home with an intimate experience, some fantastic stories, and a true connection to the destination and its people. I keep the numbers super low so we can get to know each other and move more intimately through our environment.
Flexibility is a key component to good travel. Some of the most amazing things I've caught on camera, or experienced in private travel, appeared spontaneously. Rigid fixation on an itinerary would have fenced me away from those opportunities, so I'm always open to be thrown into a side mission or random misadventure. I ask that all my travel companions adjust their expectations accordingly. We didn't come to check boxes and scratch off a to-do list, but rather to experience a destination as it unfolds before us. We've charted an optimal course, but let's all be open to the twists of fate and fortune along the journey.
Requirements for all trips:
- An open mind and positive outlook (We bring a kind, appreciative, and generous energy to the communities visited)
- The ability to walk uphill for 20 minutes
- Health or traveler's insurance (recommended)
- Signed waiver
- A backpack that can be carried for 5 city blocks (no handle suitcases)
