Ecotourism is developing very fast in the East African countries of Kenya, Uganda and Tanzania and as a result Vindicate Tours and Travel has several itineraries that cover this very important aspect of travel. Tours are available that enable the traveler to interact with people of diverse cultures and engage in environmentally friendly, day to day, activities of villagers in areas of the three East Africa countries that are better known for their wildlife safaris and beach holidays.

These ecotourism packages are tailored to suit every budget but are better suited for groups of four or more travelers as they are trips that take the client away from the regular tourist circuits to less frequented regions that are rich in flora and fauna.

On these safaris the local people earn directly from the travelers involvement in the various activities that are arranged and the tours are basically participatory, so be prepared to get involved on these trips.
