We visit some of the most pristine locations in the world; some are home to a local population less fortunate than ours, or to fragile environments and ecosystems.
All too often, their plight goes unseen, whether it’s the devastation in marine environments caused by ghost nets in the Indian Ocean, leopards and cheetahs being poisoned in Botswana, rhinos massacred for their horns, or Cape Town’s hungry street children. World Journeys is proud to support a number of charitable organisations, and we donate to support their quest to minimise humankind’s impact on the environment, and bring relief to those in need. Join us in aiding these noble organisations to keep our world beautiful and prosperous so that future generations can enjoy inspiring journeys of their own.
When our groups travel to Namibia they always visit Africat, a Foundation which strives towards the long term survival of Namibia’s predators. It has a rehabilitation centre for leopards and cheetahs and educates farmers on how to stop these cats eating their stock.
For every booking on ‘Mekong riverboat cruise’ a donation is made to help build and sustains village schools along the river. These donations buy desks, textbooks, pads and pencils, builds new buildings, concretes dirt floors and replaces roofs.
