Can Reality Holidays be a new trend?
Bravo Club
Even though it sometimes may not seem that way, there are still not enough reality TV shows to host ALL the consumers in this world who crave instant fame and shame. To the rescue comes Reality Village, part of the Bravo Club in Stintino (Sardinia), a new type of holiday village in Italy inspired by Big Brother and numerous other reality TV shows. Bravo itself is owned by Alpitour, the largest tour operator in Italy.
The 'adventure' begins upon arrival at the village, where 180 guests go through a real casting session to form six teams of each 30 people, facing a week of challenges, all captured by ubiquitous cameras. Think putting together a naturist calendar, cooking a dish or taking part in pool games. Every night, footage is shown and judges announce an individual winner who gets to pick another contestant to take to a holiday suite and spend the night with. The day's loser will be sent out on a raft together with a person of his/her choice. Cost: EUR 1,000 to EUR 1,500 (USD 1,255-1,880/GBP 680-1,020) per person depending on the period; not surprisingly, participants were mostly young singles and married couples. The first Reality Village 'experiment' lasted 12 weeks (June-August 2005); some footage may be shown on national TV this month.

THE REAL RACE - A Unique Adventure Tourism
Experience in Australia
Inspired by The Amazing Race, THE REAL RACE is not a reality TV show but a real race, with real people and real challenges.
The concept is quite simple: Twelve teams will travel around Australia, performing tasks and accumulating points at every 'rest point', based on their performance. The victorious team wins back the entire cost of their trip. In this race there are no losers and no eliminations. Every contestant wins, just by taking part in THE REAL RACE, a different and fun once-in-a-lifetime adventure experience.
The first REAL RACE will take place in Australia. Australia was chosen because it is a country with some of the world's greatest snowy mountains, beautiful beaches, barrier reefs, deserts, rainforests, world heritage parks and so much more.
"This is an extremely exciting experience for anyone who has the passion to win, possesses the 'travel bug', enjoys being challenged, has good spirit, and is a never-give-up person. Successful applicants will also be fair players, who are willing to take risks, enjoy the moment and are passionate about new adventures" says Amber Newton, co-founder and real race organiser.
Tthe first REAL RACE will start during the upcoming Australian autumn/fall (March - May) 2006. Interested in joining? Visit their website for more information.
