OUR COMMITMENT TO
SUSTAINABILITY
REGENERATIVE TRAVEL
Regenerative travel sets a new, aspirational objective for ecotourism. Where sustainability is about limiting or slowing down degradation, regeneration is focused on restoring and regenerating cultural identity, human wellbeing, natural systems and ultimately correcting the negative impacts of over tourism.
We are working with organizations who manage the landscapes we visit to develop new standards against which to measure the real-world impacts of our guest’s travel on sustainable development goals. These efforts are guided by a Theory of Change, and designed to ensure that our trips have a net-positive contribution to Africa's landscapes and people.
CARBON NEUTRAL
We are working towards offering carbon-neutral travel. By using sustainable enterprises - lodges, modes of travel and activities - we aim to reduce our carbon emissions as much as possible before offsetting what is remaining to reach net-zero.
We regularly audit the sustainability of our operations to evaluate their environmental impacts. We offset all our guests carbon emissions using organizations that assure transparency and quality in the creation, quantifications and verification of offset projects.
REGENERATING LANDSCAPES & COMMUNITIES
All the operators we use work closely with indigenous communities to incentivize sustainable management of rangelands, forests or fisheries and protection of wildlife, and to promote peace and security.
Using indicators spread across different ‘impact areas’, we measure the real-world impact of our trips on regenerating landscapes, conserving biodiversity and supporting local communities. This information is used to inform our guests how their money is going back into conservation and sustainable development.
OUR PLEDGE
We pledge to connect you with properties and organizations who share your values, whilst completely offsetting the carbon emissions associated with your trip. In doing so, we ensure that your travel has minimal impact on the environment, and your experiences are rooted in community development and conservation that actively supports local efforts that enable people, nature, and culture to thrive.
