‘Respect Our World’ holidays

A
Our new research trip is ideal for those interested in finding out more about the Arabian oryx. This medium-
sized member of the antelope family, which became extinct in the wild in the 1970s, was saved in captivity.
Today over a thousand have been reintroduced into their natural habitat. Although most of them live in
protected areas, they are still under threat. You will spend your days with scientists, collecting data about
this fascinating animal considered by some to be the source of the unicorn legend. You don’t need
a scientific background as you will be given some training on your first day in areas such as how to drive
a jeep safely in the desert. You don’t need to be super-fit either, but you must be able to walk 10 km in
desert sand. So, leave the kids at home, learn how to do a new job and help the oryx! Two thirds of the
amount you paid for the trip will be invested into this conservation project.

B Did you know that in 2010 there were only around 3,200 wild tigers in the world? However, things are
looking up. This number has increased to almost 4,000 thanks largely to conservation projects and
the establishment of more reserves. If you would like to find out more about tigers and to see
a conservation project in action, then Kipling Camp, located on the edge of the Kanha Tiger Reserve
in India, is a great choice. You can go on tiger safari drives, enjoy walks in the countryside and have
picnics on beautiful river beaches! Guests can also find out about local culture by going on village
tours and are welcome to get involved in the organisation of community projects, such as health
camps, where doctors and nurses provide important health advice. The charming rustic cottages
where you will stay all have cooking facilities so you can make yourself snacks, although all meals
are provided, including a special menu for the under 10s.

C
Come to Borneo and have the trip of a lifetime! Although this island has some spectacular beaches, this
isn’t a beach holiday. You’ll spend your time learning about a highly intelligent endangered species that
shares 96.4% of our genes, the orangutan. You will have the chance to come face-to-face with these
fascinating, tree-living animals on guided tours in the Tanjung Puting National Park and the Lamandau
Wildlife Reserve of Borneo. You will travel deep into the heart of the rainforest to find feeding sites, where
you will see orangutans that used to live in captivity living in the wild, as we teach you about why they are
under threat. One important reason is that they often can’t find food in the forest and destroy crops, so
hunters kill them, which is easy as they are large and move through the trees slowly. In the evenings, you
will be able to relax with other travellers in the eco-lodge where you will stay in your own room, note what
you learned and talk about other animals you’ve seen along the way, such as smaller monkeys and lizards.
D
What better way to discover what the coast of British Columbia has to offer than sailing round its fjords and
estuaries with other older teens and young adults! You’ll be able to get up close to whales swimming in the
sea during a special visit to the whale research station and will also enjoy a forest walk where you will be
fascinated by watching baby bears playing, at a safe distance of course! Travellers will also visit local
communities. This rewarding experience provides a unique opportunity to find out about the native people’s
customs and traditions. You will sleep on the small, comfortable boat in a cosy cabin and will be able to
socialise with the other guests in a comfortable lounge. Finally, this eco-friendly cruise only employs people
from local communities, so most of the income from this holiday remains in the coastal economies you will
visit.
