Kenya – Safari & Conservation

Kenya’s wildlife is world-famous, but it’s also under threat from poaching, climate change and development. Team up with local organizations in observing and safeguarding these magnificent creatures on a trip where you’ll get close to lions, cheetah, elephants, and more. To achieve our purpose, you’ll collect data on drives around game reserves, meet Masai herders who are heading up conservation efforts, and join anti-poaching teams as they work in the savannah.

Whether you’re viewing the world’s last remaining northern white rhinos, tracking lions alongside a local conservationist or collecting data on cheetahs in the Kenyan savannah, this will be a truly up close and personal experience with wildlife in East Africa.
