Australia’s unique flora and fauna are like no other and we recognise our role in the importance of conserving them and travelling responsibly. Incorporated in our trips are highly engaging nature and wildlife experiences that support local conservation efforts, including ethical wildlife encounters and hands-on conservation activities, and more. When you travel with us you also give back to the Australian Geographic Society, the charity at the heart of Australian Geographic. Every year a portion of the proceeds is used to support explorers, scientists, researchers, ecologists, and environmentalists. In this way, your trip helps sustain the wonderful places, fauna, flora, people, and cultures you’ll experience. Also, across many of our trips, we work with local researchers, environmentalists, and conservationists on citizen science projects that contribute to valuable research being done in wild and remote areas.
