A Walk on the Wildside
Five destinations for getting up close to nature

Travel and nature can go hand in hand when we behave like responsible tourists. Here we select five destinations for close up encounters with some of the world's most amazing wildlife.
  1. Australia: Uncover a vast array of wildlife from Koalas, Kangaroos and Crocs to the world's smallest penguins on Phillip Island, colourful marinelife in the Great Barrier Reef, native Dingoes on Fraser Island, friendly Quokkas on Rottnest and the endangered Tasmanian Devil.
  2. South Africa:  Cage Dive with Great White sharks, see Southern White Whale along the coatline of the Garden route and witness the Big 5 - African Elephant, Cape Buffalo, Lion, Black Rhino and Leopard, during a once in a lifetime safari sightseeing experience.
  3. Borneo: Trek through rainforests and stay in a remote jungle lodge before visiting an orangutan sanctuary and seeing an endangered pygmy elephant.
  4. Canada: A nature lovers paradise known for many mamals such as Bison, Moose, Wolf, Canadian Lynx, Artic Hare and Grizzly Bears. 
  5. Galapagos Islands: Long undiscovered the Galapagos Islands are home to a natural selection of reptitles, birds, marlinelife and mamals. The Giant Tortoise is probably the most famous and is the largest living species of Tortoise in the world and the longest living of all vertebrate.
