On this incredible safari, we pay special attention to the types of lodges used, as well as ensuring an in-depth view of Africa’s unique wildlife, eco-systems and history, by visiting incredible National Parks, World Heritage Sites and cultural villages.
In Nambia for example, the lodges all contribute to responsible tourism in their own way: At Camp Kwando, we visit two local schools bordering the lodge, with the main impetus being the quality of teaching, and that it be maintained at an adequate level. Thus our concern that all the money you pay for these visits is re-injected in schooling material. This project is monitored by Camp Kwando, who track all donations.
At Nkwazi Lodge, they provide ecologically sensitive facilities and operations by utilising solar power as well as contributing to sustainable community development by encouraging guests to visit one of the local villages and attending a church meeting.
At Palmwag, they provide ecologically sensitive soaps and shampoos, which clients are encouraged to use. To decrease water usage, there is no daily exchange of towels & linen if clients stay longer than a night to reduce water wastage; use of eco friendly pool maintenance solutions with water recycling and constant upgrade of drain systems. There is also no collection of firewood from the concession area; all firewood is supplied from local, commercial firewood suppliers. They control all access onto the concession, thereby reducing environmental impact and assist government ministries in annual conservation work & censuses. Palmwag also recruits staff from neighbouring communities only, empowering local communities and uplifting the local economy.
We invite every traveller who books a holiday via us to send in a review. Because we don't run the holidays they're completely independent and unedited... remember to read between the lines though, as two people on the same holiday can have different views!
