In Africa, our expert local guides will bring you face-to-face with big cats on the prowl in the Masai Mara National Reserve, while in Asia, we’ll lead you to wild orangutans swinging through Malaysian treetops. Off North American shores you’ll find whales breaching or head to South America to the Galápagos Islands where the ocean is teeming with sea lions and marine iguanas. If you want to explore Europe’s wildest corners, our trips to the Italian Apennines and the Carpathian Mountains in Romania offer true adventure. We even take you to the polar regions, where penguin colonies thrive in icy extremes.
With the sheer breadth of incredible trips on offer, you can rest assured that wherever the wild calls, we’ll be there to answer.
Spot Big Cats In Africa
Africa’s wild heart beats strongest on safari, where our guides lead you to lions in Kenya’s Maasai Mara, zebras crossing the Serengeti, and hippos wallowing in Botswana’s Okavango Delta. For an intimate encounter, track mountain gorillas in Uganda’s Bwindi Impenetrable Forest. The best time to travel is from June to October.

Watch Wild Orangutans In Asia
Asia’s wild wonders await, from tracking Bengal tigers in India’s Ranthambore to spotting orangutans swinging through Borneo’s rainforests. You can also see Komodo dragons prowling through Indonesia’s remote isles or snorkel with manta rays and green turtles in the Maldives. Travel between November and April for unbeatable wildlife sightings.

Witness Whale Breaches In North America
North America’s wildlife is as varied as its breathtaking scenery. Watch humpback whales surface off Canada’s coast, spot grizzly bears catching salmon in Alaska, or see vibrant toucans and three-toed sloths in Costa Rica’s tropical rainforests in Central America. We’d recommend visiting between May and October for unparalleled wildlife viewing.

Admire Marine Iguanas In South America
South America offers some of the most thrilling wildlife experiences on Earth. Spot sloths hanging in the Amazon’s lush canopy, track elusive jaguars in Brazil’s Pantanal and watch marine iguanas bask in the sun on our Galápagos adventures. Plan your visit to this continent between June and November for unforgettable encounters.

Observe Brown Bears In Europe
Europe’s wild side is alive in its remote mountains and dense forests. Track brown bears in Romania’s Carpathians or spot elusive wolves in Italy’s Apennines. For the best chance to witness these incredible predators in their natural habitat, visit between April and October when they are most active.

Gaze At Penguins In The Polar Regions
Venture to the ends of the Earth for wildlife experiences few will ever have. In Antarctica, see gentoo penguins in South Georgia or humpback and minke whales in the Lemaire Channel. For polar bears in the wild, explore Svalbard’s frozen wilderness. Visit Antarctica between November–March or June–September for the Arctic’s best sightings.

View Turtles in Oceania
In Australia, you’ll watch penguins parade ashore on Phillip Island and spot sea turtles nesting in Montgomery Reef, while in New Zealand you might be lucky to spot a pod of dolphins on our jet boat excursion in Mount Aspiring National Park.
