Feel The Difference Authenticity Makes
At
Wildland Adventures, authenticity is our highest priority.
Sincerity, good faith, genuineness - they're all part
of the ethic we embrace in approaching our world and
the people and cultures we share it with. We’re
devoted to helping our travelers experience the world
with the honesty and affirmation that your choice of
Wildland Adventures implies — a real world without
artifice, that craves our understanding and compassion
rather than
our judgment; a world that seeks to welcome us rather
than entertain us.
Of course, it can be argued that authenticity is an unattainable
goal in travel. Our presence will forever change the place
and the people with whom we come in contact. But if authenticity
is characterized, according to its definitions, by "freedom
from hypocrisy and pretense," then Wildland Adventures
can proceed with the confidence that our trips not only
will strengthen our own humanity, but will help build the
kind of inter-cultural, interpersonal and environmental
bonds that enhance rather than exploit the people and places
where we travel.
Why Travel With Us
For
over two decades, we have been leading the way in adventure
travel and ecotourism, not just to new destinations,
but pioneering new approaches to travel that guarantee
your experience with Wildland Adventures will be qualitatively
superior.
- The Personal Difference
We are personally involved in the design of your trip in
coordination with local field staff. When you call
our USA staff you will be speaking with another traveler
with first hand experience in your destination who
will help you choose the right trip and craft an itinerary
that meets your personal interests and style.
- Friends In Faraway Places
Cross-cultural interaction is not only having respect
for local customs, but is genuine, honest, personal
interaction
stimulated by sensitive introductions from respectful
guides who introduce you to their home like a friend
and treat you as a personal traveling companion.
- Comfort and Safety
Prepare to immerse yourself, secure in your health and
safety. Relax and enjoy the experiences of native culture
and pristine wilderness environments confident of our
exceptional accommodations, transportation, hygiene and
security, and the support of our professional in-country
outfitters.
- Bask In Native Hospitality
We seek out small, boutique hotels and lodges and even
home stays where native culture is strong and we can
enjoy regional cuisine and experience traditional lifestyle.
Designed in indigenous style that fit into their environs
naturally, our accommodations deliver charm, amenities
and native warmth.
- Local Escorts To Exploration
The direct involvement of professional indigenous guides
in organizing and leading your Wildland Adventure assures
you will have an exceptionally informative, well-executed,
and authentic experience.
- Like-minded Travelers
By creating more personal, in-depth and meaningful life
enhancing travel experiences we consistently attract
active and inquisitive travelers of all ages who discover
that Wildland Adventures are not the stereotypical group
experience. Participants on our very small group trips
are frequently experienced world travelers who request
our services for efficiency, economy, reliability, security
and superior leadership.
- Journeys of Discovery
Wildland Adventures are physical, intellectual and spiritual
adventures--more a state of mind than a risky or arduous
challenge. The real adventure is new insights, the awe
found in nature, encounters with new cultures, and the
excitement of personal discovery.
- Dependability
You can depend on our record of professionalism and safety.
Prestigous travel writers, guidebooks and travel industry
media, recognize Wildland Adventures as a leading ecotourism
company. The company was a founding member of The International
Ecotourism Society, the Galapagos Tour Operators Association,
and the Maasai Environmental Resource Coalition, and
retains corporate membership in other professional tourism
associations and the Better Business Bureau.
