Lose the compass and let the wild be your guide when you book these jungle adventures.

Give into the urge to pack a single bag, board a plane and get lost in the wilds of the world. You won’t need a map on these jungle excursions, just an appetite for adventure. Venture into areas where big cats and venomous snakes lounge about in secrecy, no more bothered by your presence than they are by the sun rays passing through the canopy. Cake mud on your boots as you hike through Colombia’s jungle or return from Nepal’s rapids with soaked-through socks. Whichever you choose, pack an extra change of clothes for these jungle-adventure TRIPS by Culture Trip.
1 . Pura Vida: A Jungle Safari of Costa Rica
We feel like “disappearing into the jungle” is a bit misleading when it comes to this nine-day Costa Rica getaway. You’ll certainly find yourself venturing into the Costa Rican cloud forest, riding down whitewater jungle rapids in La Fortuna and hiking through tropical landscapes in search of secret swimming holes. The “disappearing” part may just wait until your mind melts into a cup of joe at a coffee collective or when you’re lost in thought during a sunrise yoga class on the Pacific shoreline.

2 . Welcome to the Jungle: Exploring Northern Thailand
The Welcome to the Jungle moniker couldn’t be more fitting for this 10-day tour of northern Thailand. Not only will you roll into the hills of Mae Hong Son for jungle trekking, but you’ll rock alongside a small group the size of Guns N’ Roses. Patience on an uphill climb will reward you with a picnic and possible sighting of Myanmar over the border in the distance. It’s so easy to let your mind wander deeper into the mysteries of this lush jungle, and even easier to say yes to all of the optional hikes throughout this tour.

3 . Himalayan Escapades and Wildlife Encounters in Nepal
Rather than ascend to the highest parts of the Himalayan landscape, venture deep into its interior during this 11-day Nepal excursion. You’ll whitewater raft down the Seti River, riding through thick jungle. But first, you’ll stretch your legs trekking through rice terraces and farmland. Your soles will rest on a safari through Chitwan National Park, but we can’t say the same about your soul. A search for Bengal tigers and one-horned rhinos will keep your heart racing, eyes peeled and mind full of possibility.

4 . From Bogotá to Medellín: Traverse the Colombian Andes
This eight-day Colombia tour is more than a mere invitation into South America’s jungles. You’ll wander to one of the most biodiverse areas of the planet: where the Amazon meets the Andes. Hike to the giant wax palm trees of the Cocora Valley alongside a handful of other intrepid travellers, then raft down the Río Negro in the Magdalena River Valley. You’ll stop in Bogotá and Medellín as well, two of the few places in Colombia that were once more dangerous than the jungle itself.

5 . Into the Jungle: Wildlife Adventures in the Bornean Wilderness
Are you looking for a wildlife adventure to share with your partner? Then why not join this 10-day tour into the Bornean rainforest. You start in Sandakan, where you learn about the need for conservation at the sun bear and orangutan sanctuaries. Next up is a safari along the Kinabatangan River, a place where you can see orangutans in the wild, as well as pygmy elephants, crocodiles and proboscis monkeys. The tour doesn’t end there, as you’re off to Kota Kinabulu to snorkel the coral reefs before saying farewell to Borneo.
