Primate Keeper for Two
Primate Keeper for Two

You don't have to go all the way to South America to get up close and personal with primates. Coming to some tree-tops near you (well, in Cornwall anyway) are some beautiful and endangered woolly and capuchin monkeys. This experience involves a trip to a sanctuary dedicated to their welfare and conservation and is a must for any fans of these beautiful creatures. After meeting primate keepers and receiving a health and safety briefing, assist the team with cleaning out the woolly monkeys, meet the capuchins and hear about their backgrounds. Take a well deserved lunchbreak at Tree Top Cafe, after which you will help prepare the woolly monkeys' lunchtime fruit bowl, pick wild leaves from the Victorian gardens and get involved in monkey enrichment. After a quick coffee break, learn how to make a capuchin fruit bowl. Each of you will take home a t shirt and certificate, photos of the monkeys you have met and a one year free membership of the sanctuary. Click Here for More Details...

Scuba Diving with Sharks
Scuba Diving with Sharks

Diving with sharks is guaranteed to make most people think you're either very brave or rather stupid. After all, these are marine killing machines. But sharks are also beautiful, fascinating creatures, and if you've got the bottle, there is no experience like diving with them. Your experience will start with some scuba training, which will take between one and two hours, including a full briefing on scuba equipment and techniques and a practice session in a swimming pool. Then it's time for your half-hour dive in the aquarium. Shark species will vary between venues, but you might be swimming with sand tiger sharks (which swim with their mouths open, so you can see their teeth - yikes!), lemon sharks, angel sharks or nurse sharks. There will also be other big fish, such as stingrays and conger eels, and shoals of smaller species. You can play with the smaller fish and wave through the glass at visitors to the aquarium, including your spectators, as the sharks swim around you. Click Here for More Details...

Cowboy Trail Riding Adventure for Four
Cowboy Trail Riding Adventure for Four

Discover your inner cowboys or cowgirls on this great trail ride in the New Forest, England's answer to the Wild West (more trees, not so many cacti). You'll be riding a beautiful Western Paint horse, western-style - this style of riding is easier to learn and feels more secure than riding English-style, so it's great even for beginners. And those cowboys had to spend all day in the saddle, so they made darn sure it was comfortable! The stresses of everyday life will drift away as you head off on a two-hour trail through beautiful countryside, led by experienced wranglers. Back at the ranch, enjoy a barbecue meal and plenty of hot coffee. Rawhide! Click Here for More Details...
