Terra Incognita ECOTOURS

Terra Incognita Ecotours for trips that make a difference to you and to the places we visit. With scheduled departures to Rwanda; the Amazon; Madagascar; Belize; Costa Rica; Papua New Guinea; and Nicaragua.

Terra Incognita ECOTOURS is committed to making a difference to you and to the places we visit. Our commitment is to provide travelers with opportunities to participate in ecotours, which explore the world with a sense of discovery and wonder, and to preserve our environment for future generations. As we do so, we strive to create ecotours that are as enriching and memorable as they are comfortable and fun.

Indeed, we pledge to engage in responsible travel to natural areas that conserves the environment and improves the well-being of local people. Hence we adhere to the following principles:

- Minimize impact
- Build environmental and cultural awareness and respect
- Provide positive experiences for both visitors and hosts
- Provide direct financial benefits for conservation
- Provide financial benefits and empowerment for local people
- Raise sensitivity to host countries' political, environmental, and social climate
- Support international human rights and labor agreements.

We take these principles to heart, and for every person who joins one of our ecotours we make a donation to one of the leading conservation organizations working in the area. Indeed we partner with these organizations to help increase their effectiveness. Our conservation partners will send a representative to join us, to explain their work, to provide added insight, to make your experience more relevant, rewarding and unique.

For instance in Rwanda we take TWO Gorilla treks, stay in luxurious lodges, visit the grave of Dian Fossey, view sunbirds and wildlife galore, see incredible scenery, and meet the veterinarians working to protect the endangered Mountain Gorillas.
