The search for some of the world\u2019s top soul-stirring wildlife encounters can take you to the ends of the earth, from the wilds of Africa to the southernmost tip of Argentina.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are some wildlife encounters that go above and beyond: following in the footsteps of a Galapagos giant tortoise, watching more than a million wildebeest during the Great Migration, and observing far-flung penguin colonies in southern Patagonia. Getting to these destinations in a way that is both ethically minded and luxurious is no mean feat \u2013 but the itineraries with Abercrombie &amp; Kent (A&amp;K) accomplish it with aplomb. Conservation and animal welfare is at the forefront of A&amp;K\u2019s wildlife experiences, so travellers can undertake journeys that are equal parts considered and unforgettable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"lux_UI lux_offer_carousel\">\n\t\n\t<h3>Discover Africa<\/h3>\t\n\t<section class=\"splide lux_offer_carousel_feed\" aria-label=\"Luxury Escapes: Discover Africa\">\n\t\n\t\t<div class=\"splide__arrows\">\n\t\t<button class=\"splide__arrow splide__arrow--prev\"><\/button>\n\t\t<button class=\"splide__arrow splide__arrow--next\"><\/button>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n\t<div class=\"splide__track\">\n\t\t<div class=\"splide__list\">\n\t\t\t\n<div id=\"offer_tour-8bc0b186-7f3c-4216-863d-8b12cc1c2ed0\" class=\"splide__slide offer_item type_tour cacheid_14457714dfb181a0744278a20c3a7484\">\n\t<a href=\"https:\/\/luxuryescapes.com\/us\/tour\/tour-8bc0b186-7f3c-4216-863d-8b12cc1c2ed0\/egypt-jordan-14d-discovery-tour-nile-river-cruise-wadi-rum-petra-2027-base\" data-le=\"promo\" data-type=\"tour carousel LuxPlus \" data-name=\"Deluxe 14-Day Egypt &#038;

See 1.5 million wildebeest, plus zebras and other herbivores, make the epic trek from the Serengeti to the Masai Mara region in search of greener pastures. Never fear if your schedule doesn\u2019t line up with the migration though, because the Masai Mara is one of the best places on Earth to spot the Big Five: lions, elephants, leopards, rhinos and Cape buffalos. The easiest way to spot any of the Big Five is on a game drive through the savannah with an experienced guide who knows all the best wildlife-viewing spots.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While days may be wild, evenings are refined at Sanctuary Olonana, the lodge of choice for A&amp;K\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/luxuryescapes.com\/tour\/tour-5c14ddb1-ad88-4dc1-9727-fa992a48922e\/14d-kenya-tanzania-great-migration-safari-tour-africa-big-five-base-regular?preview=true\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">14-day Ultra-Lux Safari Tour.<\/a> This five-star luxury safari lodge sits along a secluded slice of the Mara River.

It\u2019s from this busy port city that you can board a private cruise to the Isla Martillo. This island is only accessible by boat and few operators can stop and disembark here, so stepping foot onto the pebbled shores is a rare and rewarding experience. Greeting you as you make your way to the Magellanic rookery is a cacophony of bird call. The Magellanic penguins, known for being social and conversational, can be found honking and squawking as they look for their mate in the heaving crowd of black-and-white birds \u2013 their tiny stature at odds with their volume.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This cruise continues to Isla Gable in the heart of the Beagle Channel. The island has a rugged and stunning landscape, with nothing but a handful of abandoned buildings and the wind and water as company. A scenic lunch is the perfect way to savour the remote landscape.
