Global Conservation Force is excited to announce that we are offering Ecotour Photo Safari Trips! Trips are setup to comfortably take out groups of 7 to 10,  depending on the lodging and group accommodation requests, on the conservation photo safari of a lifetime. These tours are not sold independently at each lodge or reserve. They have been custom created, curated, and scheduled to overlap one or all three of these areas of conservation and wildlife protection (See below). Guests are guaranteed to see a wide variety of African wildlife including lions, elephants, rhino, giraffe, and more!

1 ) Support and see your impact for anti-poaching efforts

Visit our rangers on duty and on patrol. Meet our K9s, horses, rangers, and visit the field ranger base. Each trip provides funding to sustain and maintain our anti-poaching efforts.

2 ) Support community based conservation efforts

Visit the Community Education Outreach Center, participate in a community conservation program, or visit the local community. Each trip funds the program that the group is participating in.

3 ) Wildlife Veterinary Procedure or Rehabilitation Center Visit

Visit one of the local animal rescues, animal rehabilitation centers, or participate on the wildlife veterinary procedure. Each trip will fund the efforts of these categories during their visit. For example : Rhino procedures, be hands on, side by side, with the wildlife capture and veterinary crew. Be proud that you and the group directly funded this vital effort.
