Why would you like to join this program? What are your main goals that you would like to get out of this expedition?
*
What will you bring to your fellow participants and people you meet during this program? What would you like to share with them?
*
We pride ourselves on offering authentic off the beaten track experiences in smaller local areas with limited infrastructure, which can sometimes lead to unforeseen challenges or modest accommodations/eateries. If delays occur or an activity is inaccessible due to circumstances beyond our control, or if something doesn't meet your initial expectations, how would you handle and respond to the situation?
*
The animals ALWAYS come first. We may encounter the species you've been dreaming to see, but if the animal shows signs of distress or disinterest, we will prioritise their welfare. This could be due to others harassing the animals or too many boats, which is out of our control - we try to go to areas with less boat which sometimes is unavoidable). Our guide and captain may decide to leave the encounter to give the animals peace. No matter how much you want to see them or get the shot, our decision is final. Trust us, we want you to have THE BEST encounters, but the animals' welfare is our top priority.
