Discover the world's magnificent mix of wildlife
From the booming cries of howler monkeys in Costa Rica to the rare lemurs of Madagascar, the sounds and sights of a wildlife holiday are a soul-stirring experience.
Connect with Mother Nature like never before, on an unforgettable, life-changing wildlife holiday, enjoying ‘up-close-and-personal’ wildlife encounters and the joy of the Great Outdoors.
Explore the pristine jungles of Costa Rica, with their vibrant colours and unique sounds, or head to the tip of South America, where herds of wild guanacos roam the Patagonian steppe, and penguins, sea lions and whales are frequent sights. On another continent, come face to face with protected, free-roaming tigers in India’s Ranthambhore National Park, or see Asia’s last lions in Sasan Gir.
Or you can head to one of the richest biodiversity havens on earth. The island nation of Madagascar is filled with colourful wildlife and complex, active ecosystems. The islandis home to more than 11,000 endemic plant species and endangered animals including the Silky Sifaka, a white lemur, and the Ploughshare tortoise, the rarest tortoise in the world.
Whatever part of our natural world you choose to discover, wildlife holidays offer an experience you’ll cherish forever, combining a magnificent mix of wildlife with fascinating cultural encounters and some of the planet’s most extraordinary scenery.
