Why travellers submit their reviews

No matter the age and occupation of our travellers, the thing that really ties them together is the amazing memories they make on their trip. Enthralled by the experience, they are eager to share their story, tell everyone about the stunning locations and awe-inspiring animals they came across. In addition to the thrilling details of their journeys, our conservation travellers also share helpful tips, unique details and recommendations.

Far from being limited to just text-based storytelling, our travellers include a myriad of media in their conservation experience reviews. Breath-taking images, mesmerising videos and indeed even podcasts perfectly capture the spirit of their journey in a way that words alone rarely could.
