Essential Destinations was created by a team of ecologists and biologists with the belief that the best way to keep Tanzania’s wilderness truly wild is to champion respectful and sustainable eco-tourism.

We are proud to support the restoration of historical sites as well as a number of elephant and lion research projects.

We believe that responsible tourism is the answer to conservation of natural resources, historical sites and beauty.

We believe that human beings can become better people by experiencing their roots, knowing the world as it has always been, before them and how it has changed through them in historical times.

Tourism can raise the funds to allow countries like Tanzania to keep more then 30% of its territory protected, rather than consume it through crazy development.
