If you bring an unlocked mobile phone, you can get a South African SIM card when you arrive at Johannesburg airport. We’ll even take you to a nearby phone shop so you don’t have to search for one when you arrive. However, please bear in mind that most projects are in remote locations where mobile phone signal is limited.

Yes. Our experiences are inclusive of all your meals. Mealtimes are often very sociable affairs, bringing together travellers and professional conservation workers to talk about their experiences and share stories. Depending on which experience you choose, you may also have the chance to cook together with some of your fellow travellers.

All our locations can cater for vegetarians. But most struggle to provide a fully vegan or gluten-free diet. If you’re happy to plan ahead and bring a supply of your own food, it’s usually possible to find a solution to pretty much any dietary requirement.
