10 amazing adventures that will blow your mind

6. Jungle trekking in Madagascar

More than 80 per cent of the wildlife on Madagascar, the world’s fourth-largest island, cannot be found elsewhere so it’s a dream destination for nature lovers. Lemurs, rainforests, deserts and beaches are all part of this adventurous destination. Fourteen-day tours can be booked from Rainbow Tours at around £2,730 per person. On the Reefs and Rainforests tour you can explore Mantadia National Park to seek Diademed sifaka, black-and-white ruffed lemurs and the rainforest of Andasibe, where iconic rainforest species are readily seen along paths mostly graded as ‘easy’. The best time to visit Madagascar is between May and November.
