Creating wildlife and habitat value
CONSERVATION THROUGH TOURISM
As the Covid-19 pandemic has clearly shown us, tourism has a direct impact on conservation and communities. The benefits of the physical presence of visitors, in addition to their crucial revenue spend, is critical to the protection of natural areas that are home to unique flora and fauna.
Our aim is to encourage travellers to visit vulnerable areas – areas that need conservation help, habitat and biodiversity protection and community support.

CURRENT PROJECT
KILIMANJARO TO COAST
From the creators of Serengeti Show Live, a new conservation video series featuring the Tanzania North-Eastern Circuit. Using a similar format, of highly visual videography, and stunning scenes, your Serengeti Show Live hosts return with some new faces for the next CONSERVATION series.
They will attempt to conquer Kilimanjaro, embrace high altitudes, cycle through villages, camp in the wild, watch rhinos, canoe with wildlife, marvel at sunrises and snorkel the reefs of the Indian Ocean as they journey from the snow-capped peaks at the highest point in Africa to the tropical white sand beaches with turquoise seas of the mainland coast. Throughout the series, your hosts will educate on the conservation challenges and the importance of responsible tourism. The team will bring the natural world to global screens as they showcase the North-Eastern Circuit of Tanzania.

KILIMANJARO TO COAST
The team will film their attempt to conquer Kilimanjaro, embrace high altitudes, cycle through villages, camp in the wild, watch rhinos, canoe with wildlife, marvel at sunrises and snorkel the reefs of the Indian Ocean. The team will take you on a journey from the snow-capped peaks at the highest point in Africa to the tropical white sand beaches of the Tanzania mainland coast, stopping for a wilderness safari at Mkomazi NP. Your visit can protect these birds, animals, habitat and biodiversity for future generations.
SERENGETI SHOW LIVE
A 30-epsiode wildlife show from the Serengeti – filmed during lockdown of 2020, we call this the Covid-19 series. The team captured incredible scenes from the famous National Park, with incredible wildlife footage. Each episode included a Migration Update, updating on the whereabouts of the wildebeest herds of the great migration. Kids corner, was a fun and educational segment for our future conservationists. Catch all the episodes on You Tube, then come and see the Serengeti and the great migration when you can.
7 SUMMITS AFRICA
East Africa’s mountains need visitors to protect them and their diversity. We collected a random team of adventurers and headed off an expedition that hadn’t ever been done. 7 of Africa’s highest peaks were conquered in 7 weeks over 5 countries in 2017. In 2018, a smaller team of mountaineers took on 10 peaks in just 4 weeks, with a successful summit of Mawenzi peak. From 2018 until the outbreak if the pandemic, visitor numbers were increasing to the Rwenzori Mountains, were up on Mount Kenya and Mount Kilimanjaro.
