Extraordinary Travel Festival

Extraordinary Travel Festival (ETF), organized by Ric Gazarian, is a bi-annual global gathering of accomplished, avid, and adventurous travelers — including those pursuing travel to every country in the world — bringing together like-minded explorers passionate about extreme destinations.

FWT has been part of ETF since the beginning: FWT Founder Dondon Bales was a panelist at ETF1 (Armenia, 2022), FWT Co-leader Luisa Yu was a keynote speaker at ETF2 (Bangkok, 2024), and in 2026, FWT Ambassador Kach Umandap will be a keynote speaker at ETF3. FWT is proud to be among the Supporting Partners III – Extraordinary Travel Festival this October 22-25, 2026 for ETF3. Use discount code FWT to get $100 off registration.

We will also share the FWT Museum story at ETF3, offer complimentary museum access to ETF attendees especially for the launching on December 14, 2026 (Monday) in Dumaguete City, include our 2027 Travel Photo Calendar in ETF swag packs based on winners of our FWT Travel Photo Contest, and bring a 5–10 member FWT delegation this October in Bangkok.
