Holidays for Nature Lovers

Explore

For views that wow over and over again, no one does it better than nature.

From breathtaking landscapes to powerful natural forces and wildlife encounters, these are our top picks for nature lovers.

Say che bello! (how beautiful) to the beauty of the Italian Lakes and crikey! as you peer through a window at the underwater world of the Great Barrier Reef. Your 'wows' might be drowned out by the thunderous roar of waterfalls like Victoria Falls or Iguazu, and you'll definitely have to stay silent as you creep closer to the elephants of Yala National Park or the tigers of Ranthambore - but we know you'll be pinching yourself then too! Perhaps the serenity of a frozen wonderland is more enticing? Or a chorus of birds singing from the canopy of the Amazon? Either way, we've got you covered.

We think you'll agree, nothing man-made compares to the sights you'll see on these holidays.
