These shy animals are endangered and very hard to spot, but with a local expert ranger you might get lucky and encounter one. Book early as there is a limit of people allowed in this park. Further south, in Indonesia, you can take a boat trip to the remote Komodo Islands and spot these giant lizards bathing in the sun or even feasting on a buffalo. In South America, there are many opportunities for safari-like trips as well. Discover the Amazon, for example, and the beauty of the rainforest and the animals that live within it.
