SOME travel experiences are so amazing and unique they open your mind to a whole new world.

Online travel agency Zuji.com.au has compiled a list of the top 10 life-changing travel experiences to get you excited about your next trip, and we've added in some of our favourites.

Encounters with wildlife are right up there. There are only 880 mountain gorillas left in Rwanda, Africa, and the experience is made even more special due to the fact that only 50 tourists can see the wonderful creatures at any one time. 

Swimming with the beautiful humpback whale in Tonga is also something your mates are unlikely to have done. The massive mammals were near extinction but now you can swim close to them between August and October.

And on our shores, swimming with the magical whale sharks - the world's largest fish - is a real life-defining moment. The animals can grow up to 18 metres long and over the course of a day, you can swim with five or six of the creatures.

And to see the most inspiring works of man, a visit to the Mayan ruins of Tikal, Guatemala, the temples of Bagan, Myanmar (Burma) as seen in the film Samsara or walking the Great Wall of China are essential trips.
