Responsible Travel
After having been personally involved for over 10 years in humanitarian actions and development projects with local populations in Africa, responsible travel seemed to be the obvious next step to me. Today, with The Heritage Safari Company, I am continuing the commitment I started over 25 years ago by supporting projects and actions in Africa.
Our commitment in the sustainable tourism will allow you to combine ecology, authenticity and solidarity during your journey.
The selection of our partners takes into account all the concept of Sustainable Tourism
- Protection of the environment and the local cultures.
- Protection of endangered wildlife and preservation of natural and cultural heritage
- Accomodation in Camps or ecological Lodges
- Partnership with small local ground operators
- Employment of local staff for the benefit of the communities
- Fair tourism with the local populations to minimise negative economic, environmental and social impacts
- Contribution to a scientific project of Preservation of the Nature
- Support programs with the local communities
- Organize and promote tours with Limited group sizes
- Also we do not print brochures to minimise our use of paper resources.
