INSPIRED BY ATTENBOROU­GH?

IF Sir David Attenborou­gh’s A Life on Our Planet has inspired you to take the family on an epic adventure, once the world gets back to normal, specialist operator Families Worldwide has brought together a selection of family wildlife-watching holidays through which you can enjoy your own Attenborou­gh-style experience­s in the presence of some of the world’s most awe-inspiring creatures.

Trips include whale and bear watching in Vancouver, Canada, learning about the plight of orangutans on a trip to Borneo – as highlighte­d by Sir David in 2019’s Seven Worlds, One Planet – and tracking mountain gorillas and chimpanzee­s on a wildlife adventure in Uganda. Holidays depart throughout 2021, age restrictio­ns apply on some trips.
