When a group of students decided to visit uncharted areas of China and Vietnam to find new kayaking runs in wild areas, Globetrotter SOS offered assistance to them, providing a service to help them plan for all eventualities. The Kayaknam expedition used a Blackberry handset, combined with the Globetrotter SOS Assist service to offer “Here I am” location services to allow folks back at home to know where they are, and should they get into difficulties, have assistance available to them 24 x 7.
