Jungle Safari
Jungle safari can also be defined as a forest trail, except that instead of walking, hiking, or trekking, you have also got the options of exploring the forest regions via a jeep, an elephant, or even on a horse. Jungle safari does not just involve exploring the jungles of a particular region.

Paragliding
Paragliding is a type of extreme sport found in the early 1980s by people interested in aerial sports, and it allows one to run off the slopes with free parachutes. Paragliding is generally more accessible than other extreme sports since it does not require a special take off or a landing track.
