Our Mission
“We are bringing the community and travellers together. We support local communities by facilitating economic, social and environmental sustainability.”
Code of Conduct for Guests on ExcursionsSustainable Tourism in Zanzibar
We are committed Travelife partners, and amongst the very first Tanzanian members. This means we have gone through sustainable travel trainings and reviewed our methods to ensure they meet strict standards. And we are continually learning how to lower our impact on nature.
“Low impact, high income” is our guideline, meaning we keep the negative impact on the environment and communities low, while ensuring everyone involved in our tours earns a reasonable income.
Our Sustainability PolicyNo to Discrimination
Our promise to our clients, our employees, and the communities we visit, is that everyone is always welcome as themselves. We respect every individual and their beliefs, and can even arrange specific customizations to meet your needs — for example, halal holiday packages.
Our no to discrimination is not only towards our clients – it’s also something we practice in our local community and in our office.
