01 Go underwater at Laucala Island, Fiji

At Laucala Island, not only can you have the entire island to yourself – if you so wished – but you can also get access to a two-seater submarine that will take you on an unmatched tour of Fiji’s marine wonders. This one’s definitely for those super special occasions! www.laucala.com

02 Trek through Rwanda’s forests

Go on a quest to catch sight of the endangered silverback gorilla and golden monkey in Rwanda’s forests. Want to make the experience luxurious? Book yourselves a room at Viruga Lodge, which overlooks the Virunga Volcanoes and twin lakes Bulera and Ruhonda, and you’ve got all the drama you were looking for right in front of you. www.volcanoessafaris.com

03 Plunge into the Devil’s Pool, Zimbabwe

This is perhaps the most dangerous, yet the most thrilling infinity pool on the planet. Accessible only during the drier months, the pool forms at the edge of Victoria Falls on the Zambezi River. One miss-step and you’ll plummet down a 100-metre drop, but the view is worth the risk!

04 Scuba dive in the Belize Barrier Reef, Belize

The second largest barrier reef in the world is every diver’s delight. A UNESCO World Heritage Site, it is home to a number of threatened species such as the West Indian manatee, green turtle, hawksbill turtle, loggerhead turtle and the American crocodile. A stay at Robert’s Grove Beach Resort in Placencia means unmatched views of the Caribbean and scuba diving in the reef. www.robertsgrove.com
