Protect what matters, safari with wild purpose
Why choose a Conservation Safari Collection tour?
Dear Purposeful Traveller,
Do you long to travel in a way that makes a genuine difference?Are you passionate about wildlife, wilderness and community – and ready to roll up your sleeves and get involved? Or perhaps you’ve already fallen in love with Africa and want to give something back to the people and places that made it so unforgettable?
At Encompass Africa, our Giving Back Journeys are for travellers who want more than just a holiday. These are immersive experiences that let you participate in grassroots conservation and community initiatives, side by side with the locals leading the change.
Why you should come
Our small group tours are different by design. You’ll enjoy meaningful encounters, shared experiences, and room to breathe. We handcraft each itinerary to highlight the best of the region – whether that’s tracking wildlife on a mokoro in Botswana, sailing the Zambezi at sunset, or sharing stories with Maasai elders in Kenya.
Each tour is personally hosted by one of our exceptional local guides – passionate storytellers who bring the landscapes, cultures and wildlife of Africa vividly to life.
What you’ll experience
Whether it’s a hands-on conservation project or a community partnership, you’ll travel with intent, and walk away with stories that matter.
- Get involved – Join vetted initiatives that genuinely need your help, from wildlife monitoring to sustainable farming, education or rewilding efforts.
- Travel with purpose – Combine impactful experiences with the thrill of safari, creating a journey that’s meaningful and memorable.
- Learn from locals – Spend time with rangers, researchers, educators and community leaders, hearing firsthand how their work is shaping Africa’s future.
- Leave a legacy – Know that your visit helps fund ongoing projects and supports the people and wildlife that need it most.
Who it’s perfect for
- Hands-on travellers who want to get beneath the surface and connect deeply.
- Nature lovers who want to play a role in protecting the planet.
- Families, couples or solo travellers who believe in travel as a force for good.
- Anyone who wants their time in Africa to mean something – not just to them, but to others.
The Encompass Africa difference
This isn’t voluntourism. It’s not performative. And it’s never one-size-fits-all. We’ve spent years building trusted partnerships across the continent, so you can engage with ethical, impactful programs that welcome your contribution – and value your presence.
We’ll help tailor a journey that fits your interests, skills and spirit. Whether it’s a few days or a few weeks, we’ll make it count.
