Partnerships to Protect the Wild

With a name like Explorers Against Extinction, and patrons including Sir Ranulph Fiennes and Levison Wood,  it will come as no surprise to learn that a passion for travel and adventure runs deep.

We strongly believe that the benefits of responsible travel – high quality, low density travel which supports the protection of  wildlife, wild spaces and local communities –  outweighs the environmental impact of travelling to and from a destination.

Your holiday pounds and dollars have the power to transform livelihoods through employment opportunities, and to attract investment which in turn improves essential services including water supply, infrastructure, clinics and schools.

How It Works

Browse holiday destinations and ideas at our dedicated travel sites: Real Africa, Real Asia and Real Americas.

Send us your enquiry. We put you in touch directly with our trusted travel network. Should you decide to book we receive a small referral commission in return (at no additional cost to you). This supports the running of Explorers Against Extinction. In time, we hope the network will grow and be able to directly support our projects too.

In return,  you’ll receive complimentary one year membership to our Explorer Club providing a behind-the-scenes look at the work we do and in some destinations we can offer an optional project visit.

Responsible Travel

Sustainable eco-tourism – high quality, low density travel which supports the protection of  wildlife, wild spaces and local communities – ensures the benefits of your trip outweigh the environmental impact of getting there and back. Our network offers:

*Expert first-hand knowledge from small specialist operators;

*Comprehensive bonding for complete peace of mind and financial security;

*Local guides and camps/lodges who employ largely local staff ;

*Properties which reduce their environmental impact through use of renewables and recycling/responsible waste disposal;

*Sustainable activities focusing on the natural world, and experiences in line with responsible wildlife tourism.
