The Foundation supports sustainable community-led wildlife conservation initiatives across Africa. Responsible travel is at the heart of the African Horse Safaris Ethos. Whilst we are in the formative years, we are taking the lead from our horse riding safari operators, supporting programmes that they endorse and are relevant to the areas where our guests ride. The majority of our operators have been living and working in these areas for decades and therefore know how we can provide the best support. We believe that this will create a great synergy with our clients as they will be able to see that just their travelling to Africa is making a tangible difference in the areas they are visiting.
