Your Guide To Wildlife Holidays

Your Guide To Wildlife Holidays

As travellers become more mindful of their impact, sustainable tourism has gained significant momentum. Nature-orientated holidays offer unique opportunities to reconnect with nature and witness the extraordinary, all while staying at hotels that don’t skip on luxury or comfort—core values to ASMALLWORLD’s team. Discover some of the unique wildlife experiences available and unwind at one of our carefully selected destinations.

Wildlife Safari in India

India is home to 75% of the world’s wild Bengal Tigers, a testament to Project Tiger, a conservation initiative which protects national parks such as Ranthambore and Kanha (the inspiration for Kipling’s The Jungle Book). We recommend Aman-i-Khas, a luxury tented camp located on the fringes of the Ranthambore National Park. This exclusive retreat offers all-inclusive experiences, including twice-daily guided Jeep safaris which take you through dense forests and open meadows in search of tigers and leopards. The park teems with other fascinating wildlife as well, including Sambar deer and the gray langur monkey, revered in Hindu philosophy. Aman-i-Khas also offer camel safaris and Chambal River cruises, alongside opportunities to immerse yourself in local cuisine and culture.

Volcanic Rejuvenation in Costa Rica

Home to more than 500,000 species, 12 microclimates and 161 national parks, Costa Rica is rich in biodiversity. With 99% of its energy sourced renewably and its rainforests steadily expanding, the country is a leader in sustainable innovation.

Unwind in ultimate tranquility at Tabacón Thermal Resort & Spa, a five-star resort nestled at the foot of the Arenal Volcano. Enveloped by lush rainforest, this sanctuary boasts natural stone floors, hot tubs fed by local springs and open-air spa treatments. Soak in soothing thermal pools or hike the verdant trails of Arenal Ecological Park and look out for sloths.

Kenya’s Untamed Beauty

Kenya is proud to be ranked among the world’s ten mega-biodiverse nations and the country’s ecosystems span mountains, forests, arid lands, croplands and more, making it a dream destination for nature lovers. The Maasai Mara is one of Kenya’s most iconic safari destinations, but for a more intimate experience, venture to the Loisaba Conservancy and stay at the Elewana Loisaba Tented Camp. Set on the edge of an escarpment overlooking Laikipia’s breathtaking landscape, it is a fusion of raw beauty and sophistication. Enormous open tents and private verandas create serene spaces to take in the wilderness beyond. Beyond the traditional guided drives, explore the landscape on horseback or mountain bike.
