Five best action packed holidays in the world
For travelers who want more than just sun, sea and sand, here are five of the most overwhelming activity holidays in the whole world.
Horse Riding in Iceland
Iceland has some of the most exceptional landscapes in the world .It is rocky, beautiful, largely uninhabited, and perfect for an off the wall activity holiday. Mind blowing glaciers and geothermal curiosities give the sense of being close to nature and its extraordinary power.
An adventure holiday in Iceland on a horseback can bring a person close to the island’s natural wonders, thus providing a truly thrilling experience. The beautiful scenery and the pure-bred Icelandic horses are just wonderful.
Scuba Diving on the Great Barrier Reef
Australia has some of the most varied and amazing scuba diving locations in the world. Queensland’s Great Barrier Reef tops among all the destinations for an ultimate activity holiday.
Almost everyone has heard of the largest reef in the world. It is a well-established destination for adventure holidays.
This place has got almost 400 species of coral, 1500 species of fish, 4000 species of mollusk, 500 species of seaweed, 200 species of birds.
Traveling Across Africa
A few weeks out for a real African adventure holiday and, traveling across the marvelous areas of Namibia and Botswana are just not enough.
The northern Namib desert is called the Skeleton Coast because sailors washed ashore from the shipwrecks over the centuries soon turned into skeletons. On an action packed holiday to the Namib one can experience the brilliant colors and changing moods of its vast landscape. One can also see the astounding adaptations of its flora and fauna.
In Botswana, one can walk with cheetahs and spot the ‘big five’ – lion, elephant, buffalo, rhinoceros and leopard. The blue color in the national flag of Botswana represents the peaceful nature of the country. This is a wonderful area to get a taste of real Africa
Madagascan Wildlife Holiday
It is well known for the diversity of its wildlife and flora. Madagascar’s riches include inimitable landscapes, dazzling Indian Ocean beaches, tropical island archipelagos and unspoiled reefs.
On an adventure holiday in Madagascar one can see a wide variety of lemurs, endemic birds, extraordinary reptiles, frogs and strange-looking plants.
On a Madagascan activity holiday one can explore wildlife hotspots in the eastern rainforests and in the strange ‘spiny desert’ of the semi-arid south. And on the northwest coast one can explore the dry forest of Anjajavy, where one can also relax by the sea.
Trekking in Peru
For the unforgettable trek, one should start off in the city of Cuzco, Peru, the ancient capital of the Inca Empire.

Great Adventures for sure! Little comment about Scuba Diving on the Great Barrier Reef – In the same time everyone probably heard that that reef is dying along with many others. And there is another bad news that in 50 years we are not going to see many reefs due to human activity on the planet. heh, this is so sad! Anyway, Great article!!! thank you.
