| On the border with Brazil and nearly 1700 kms from Buenos Aires the mightly Iguazu Falls are not to be missed. Set in the middle of the jungle you can kayak or canoe in the waters of the
Iguazu River or explore the many acres of the surrounding subtropical rainforest packed with colourful birds and wildlife.

| Located just off the west coast of Sabah, Tunku Abdul Rahman National Park is made up of five lovely
islands with abundant wildlife including scaly pangolins, monkeys, various snakes, monitor lizards and the (uninspiringly named) bearded pig.
It is also a good place to see the white breasted sea-eagle, pied hornbill, and the green heron.
