From encounters with elephants, lions and rhinos in the African savannahs to trekking through steamy South American jungles tracking for jaguars and ocelots, peering through binoculars at rare birdlife or searching for blue whales, there's an amazing array of wildlife and nature trips available. The safari is the classic choice - a week or two out in the wilds with virtually guaranteed sightings of spectacular wildlife on well organised itineraries. A wide variety of packages combine wildlife-spotting with hill walking or trekking in national parks across the globe, amid wonderful scenery from Alaska to Australia. Somewhat more specialised, but very popular, holidays cater to birdwatchers - with organised trips to prime avian locations across Europe and the rest of the world, often timed to coincide with major migrations. Or take to the seas and get close to the world's largest creatures on a whale-watching trip, with the chance to view dolphins and seabirds in abundance, too. (Scuba diving holidays are covered in our watersports section.)
