Conservation Introduction

75% of Kenya's spectacular wildlife is outside National Parks on private and community land. For 25 years, before "eco-tourism" became a buzzword, Cheli & Peacock has been an innovator and leader in community revenue sharing tourism projects. We believe in high income, low impact tourism, and will work with environmentally responsible lodges and camps.

We continue to lobby for sustainable tourism in Kenya, and actively participate in Wildlife Forums, Mara, Meru, Amboseli, Samburu Management Policy and Kenya Tourism Federation.

In our own lodges and camps we employ and train staff from the local area, do our best to operate environmental "best practice" (solar panels for water heating and inverter power, rubbish disposal, etc), and open up new areas for tourism therefore bringing revenue to struggling conservation areas and marginalized communities. We support local schools at the camps, make a vital contribution to AMREF's work, and other small community projects.

We know that you, our clients, want to be assured that your participation on a Cheli & Peacock safari benefits the communities you visit and that the eco-systems you enjoy are that much more sustainable as a result of your visit. We give you that assurance.
