- A contribution from each safari sold is made to the conservation and preservation of the bears in the destination of choice
- We encourage the use of local guides in every destination and with every local agent. We do not believe in taking jobs from local populations in order to provide for western needs
- Where possible we will always use local suppliers in preference to others whether this is in the purchase of provisions, accommodation, transport or equipment
- We make every effort to use responsible and eco-friendly local agents in each destination
- Wherever possible we use environmentally friendly local accommodation. If this is not possible we make every effort to alert the management of the accommodation in question to ways of improving their service with the environment in mind
- We aim to minimise our impact on the environment as much in the UK as we would do in any of our destination countries. We do this through recycling of any office waste including, paper, plastic, cans, glass, refuse, in partnership with the Borough of Brighton & Hove
- The purpose of our safaris is to contribute to local populations, communities and projects. We give our travellers advice on how to interact with the local population, flora and fauna in order to minimise any negative impact
- We advise people not to bargain just for the sake of it and because it is the “thing to do”; you should pay what you feel the object is worth to yourself and the vendor, bearing in mind local cultures, society and standard of living
- Our local guides advise on how to respond to begging. Often if you want to donate some items it is best done through your local guide in combination with a local body such as a school or local community leader
