Corporate Social Responsibility
Ultimate Safaris is privileged to be able to operate in pristine wilderness areas. We believe that the future of the environment and the natural inhabitants of these regions lies in the hands of the communities living there and that this means they must be involved in the custodianship of their surroundings. The Conservation Travel Foundation is Ultimate Safaris’ registered non-profit organization and it fully supports these ideals.
Ultimate Safaris is dedicated to the protection and conservation of the areas in which it operates, as well as to improving the quality of life of the communities who live in and around them. The Trustees of the Conservation Travel Foundation possess a deep understanding of all the areas in which the company operates, and they endorse the concept of responsible tourism that promotes conservation and development initiatives. Ultimate Safaris raises an additional 2.5% of its commercial revenue for conservation, and the funds produced are used for projects approved by the Conservation Travel Foundation. These projects range from assistance for rhino and predator conservation programs to the improvement of school infrastructure in remote rural areas.

Our guide and driver were very good with their knowledge and were very helpful with our questions. It was a very pleasant visit that would have been impossible to do on our own. Hotels and restaurants were fantastic. The special places we got to go to, like the kitchens, were great. Enjoyed the entire trip!
