Many people in Africa are reliant on woodfires for cooking. As the population has increased the impact of this is of growing concern. Whilst barbeques are an integral part of any African experience, we frequently utilize gas cookers in order to help preserve the increasingly scarce wood supply.

You may pass through some fragile and unique ecosystems that deserve particular respect. Some immensely important concerns, such as the preservation of endangered animals like the mountain gorillas are obvious. Less obvious perhaps is the preservation of all habitats as they support a myriad of species, as is the preservation of lesser known species of fauna and flora. Take care where you walk stick to established paths, and leave things as beautiful and untouched as you find them. On all game drives, our trained and qualified guides ensure that our groups interact with wildlife in the appropriate way. Slow movements, no talking and to respect the animals “personal” boundaries. Our philosophy is that we are visitors in the amazing places that we visit, and we do not want our presence to impact the wildlife and environment in any negative way. 

All entrance fees for the National Parks in Africa are used by the local authorities to maintain the condition and infrastructure of the National Parks, and run regular anti-poaching patrols.  Read more about our Animal Welfare Policy
