The trips families remember years later usually have one thing in common: a moment with an animal you’ll never forget. Sharing breakfast with a giraffe sticking its head through your hotel window in Nairobi. Watching a sloth hold her baby in a Costa Rican cloud forest. Snorkeling alongside a whale shark in the Maldives. Spotting a rare white spirit bear on the salmon banks of British Columbia. Seven of the most extraordinary wildlife encounters I send families on — and the destinations to build the trip around.

Happy Travels!
