Discovery Initiatives was founded as a travel company dedicated to supporting nature, wildlife and conservation through responsible wildlife tourism. As internationally recognised and award winning pioneers in this field, we have set up and run hundreds of small group tours, safaris and expeditions, led by experts in their field to some of the world’s greatest wildernesses across the globe, giving privileged insight and access to areas and expertise unavailable to conventional tourism.

This is a unique operation, with a network of contacts and experts in wildlife agencies across the globe, whose experts and researchers can give you privileged insight and guiding into wildlife and conservation in each country and region.

As we take an active and leading role in advocating ways to find better and more sustainable business, environmental and social practices, by joining our tours, you are providing the economic, ethical and environmental incentives to conserve such areas for future generations.

The future of tourism and travel needs to change. We aim to challenge the conventional approach to wildlife and wilderness travel and offer experiences you just can’t get with anyone else.
