CONSERVATION TOURISM

Conservation Tourism: A Force for Good

Unlike the broad term “eco-tourism,” conservation tourism has a specific goal: to directly benefit wildlife and local communities. By choosing a conservation tourism experience, you’re actively contributing to the protection of endangered species and supporting sustainable livelihoods.

Your visit helps deter poachers and provides economic opportunities for local communities. By minimizing your travel’s negative impact and maximizing its positive impact, you’re making a real difference for biodiversity.
