Initiated to honour Goodall’s 90th birthday, the collection now offers a total of 19 journeys. These trips are designed to immerse travellers in the natural world, aligning tourism with conservation efforts championed by the renowned environmentalist.
Exploring New Destinations
The new additions cover a variety of exotic locations, each offering unique wildlife encounters. The Amazon, Galápagos Islands, Costa Rica, the US, and Tanzania are now part of this diverse collection. Each of these trips provides an avenue to explore and learn about different ecosystems and the species that inhabit them, reflecting Goodall’s lifelong mission to connect people with nature.
Signature Experience in Tanzania
One of the standout trips in the new collection is in Tanzania, offering travellers the opportunity to observe chimpanzees at Gombe Stream National Park. This experience is a tribute to Goodall’s groundbreaking research, which began there when she was just 26. In addition to chimpanzee trekking, participants will enjoy a walking safari in the Ngorongoro Crater and a drive across the Serengeti Plains.
Marine and Wildlife Exploration
