Namibia & Botswana safari adventure

Planet

Carbon reduction

By traveling in a small group, we ‘tread lightly’ to minimise our impact on local resources and the environment. Energy-saving bulbs and water-conservation signs utilised in the lodges are a great way to reduce environmental impact. Accommodation and restaurants in the itinerary use locally sourced food which has not been transported long distances.

Environment and wildlife

On our wildlife safaris and game drives, 25 percent of all park entrance fees are reinvested into essential infrastructure and services related to tourism in the parks of Namibia. This is done through the Game Products Trust Fund by the MET (Ministry of Environmental and Tourism). In addition, by running game drives in Etosha National Park, we are contributing to local community initiatives and helping to fund the protection of the wide range of species that live there.
Our trips adhere to ABTA’s industry-leading animal welfare guidelines to ensure the best possible practices regarding working animals and wildlife viewing.
We rewild 1,075sqft (100sqm) per passenger for all trip and flight emissions.

We work with our partners on the ground to proactively reduce waste; this includes eliminating all single-use plastic water bottles by providing refills for reusable bottles.
