Vision and Values

“to become leaders of responsible conservation and community centred tourism in africa”

Travellers to the African continent are becoming increasingly conscious of the need to be responsible tourists by engaging in activity which respects the natural & cultural environment.  
These tourists also want their presence to enhance the wellbeing of local communities in an ethical way.
Wherever African Encounter has initiated or joined a project - from Cape Town to Zanzibar – we have strived to make a difference; making an impact on all concerned, traveller and local alike.

We believe in facilitating unique, meaningful African experiences, with a conscience.

We feel this would be the single greatest asset that we can bring to the future of African tourism, its wildlife, its environment and its people.
