The land that changes you
must be kept whole.

• We employ local Tanzanian guides, drivers, cooks, and porters, never imported staff.
• We pay above-market wages. Always.
• Our Kilimanjaro porters are paid IMEC-certified wages, significantly above the industry minimum.
• We source food for bush lunches from local farmers and markets.
• We support local schools near the parks we visit.
• We partner with the National College of Tourism, where George teaches, to train the next generation of Tanzanian guides.
• We contribute to community conservation projects in the regions where we operate.

We will not pretend to be. Conservation in Tanzania is an evolving, complicated, deeply political subject, and any operator who claims to have it figured out is not paying attention.

What we can promise is this: we are trying. We are getting better every year. We are honest about where we fall short. And we are committed to the long, slow, often invisible work of keeping this land whole, for our guests today and for the travellers who deserve the same quiet becoming fifty years from now.
