Life loves pulling
you out of life.

Don’t let it

Yes, our trips are substance-free, but that’s an entry point, not the focus. We believe anyone can benefit from removing the temptation of alcohol to deepen your connection with a place and the people sharing the experience with you.

Because in our normal life, we’ve come to expect 8 hours of daily screen time, a stubborn Saturday morning headache, and a bed-rotting Netflix binge. These things pull us out of living.

That’s why we created Capsule Adventures to bring you back into life — and then some.

Post-Trip Feels

  • Three people in swimsuits standing by a river with trees in the background.

    “It was such a relief to have no one expecting me to drink.”

    —Maile Lucks

    On most vacations with friends, saying “I’m not drinking” turns into a whole thing. I either cave or end up explaining myself all weekend. This trip? No pressure, no questions, no weird energy.

  • Man smiling on a rocky hill with a scenic view of curved bays and rugged mountains in the background.

    "I’m not sober, but I needed a reset. This trip gave me that—and more.”"

    —Nosif Prasla

    “I drink occasionally. This trip helped me realize how much of my lifestyle was autopilot. I came back with a clear head, wondering if I want more of this in my life.”

  • Avery Wilson

    “I’m used to having my guard up while traveling. I didn’t need that here.”

    —Avery Wilson

    There was a level of respect, care, and grounded energy I’ve never felt on other group trips. No one was drunk, no one was reckless. I could actually relax — which meant I could actually enjoy myself.

  • Person in winter clothing standing outdoors with a mountainous snowy background and stone building.

    “The itinerary was stacked. Every day felt like a highlight reel.”

    —Moritz Reinhardt

    I’ve done trips where there’s one big day and the rest is filler. Every day had something unreal — a glacier, a hidden village, a challenge that pushed us just enough. I never felt overwheled, but I also never asked, “Why are we doing this?”

Hi, I’m Ryan

Founder | Trip Leader | 4 Years Sober

A 14-day safari through Namibia, Botswana, and Zimbabwe. A once-in-a-lifetime vacation that should have resembled a fairytale. Instead, someone relapsed– stealing alcohol, getting lost, injuring himself, and triggering the hell out of my own sobriety journey. Then an 8-day hike through the Svaneti region of Georgia with a lot of alcohol.  There was a foiled sexual assault, the guide was fired, and group dynamics got weird. 

It was on that clusterf**k of a hike that I had the idea for Capsule Adventures. And I created it for the intentional, status-quo-breaking traveler to take bold, bucket-list adventures, free of distractions.

A big life is found in a shrinking bucket list. 

Break the pattern of gym/work/dinner and book the trip you’ve been waiting your whole life to take. No need to wrangle the friend group. No need to plan. Just say yes. 

Future you thanks you.
