There are at least four reasons you
should come with us.
We have formed close working partnerships with the best in-country
outfitters and the best lodges and camps-outfits that have decades
of experience with guests on safari. In addition, we are committed
to employing local people to the maximum extent possible. We pay
our people well and, just as important, we provide them with training
and involve them in our company. They are trusted partners in providing
our guests with the best safari experience available in Kenya and
Tanzania.
Ethical tourism is one of the cornerstones
of our company. Tavares Tours and Travel is committed
to travel that provides exciting opportunities for our guests while
enriching lives and protecting habitats in East Africa. We support
micro-economic development projects with a number of tribal groups
in Kenya and Tanzania. These programs allow our guests exclusive
entry onto tribal lands while giving local people local control
over the way tourism is introduced and the way dollars earned are
used. Our programs open up rare opportunities for in-depth exchanges
between western culture and traditional African cultures.
Education is one of the cornerstones
of Tavares Tours and Travel. On our safaris, you learn
by going. It is a highly entertaining process of deepening discovery
that we call Natural Learning and it's an integral part of every
one of our safaris. As our guides teach you to spot and identify
game and track animals, you begin to see with new eyes. You become
more curious and observant about animal behaviors, and you begin
to understand how all the pieces of the ecosystem fit together.
In addition, we can also arrange your safari to give you special
access to amazing people who know Africa's depths: researchers,
directors of non-governmental organizations (NGOs) tribal councils,
and camp owners. At Tavares Tours and Travel we want
you to come away with a deeper understanding of an astonishing landscape. |
