With this accreditation, we are even more thrilled to be among other extraordinary Long Run Destinations. This year we are pleased to announce a wonderful partnership with Segera!

The Maasai of Kuku Group Ranch live in one of the most iconic landscapes on earth: the sprawling savannah between Amboseli and Tsavo National Parks, backed by the "Green Hills of Africa" and looking onward to Mount Kilimanjaro. By travelling to this area, you can support the local economy while also helping protect the wildlife and people who live here. By joining on our Volunteer Safari, you can put your talents to use, share your compassion, and make a difference for the Maasai and their homeland.

A little bit about MWCT: The Maasai Wilderness Conservation Trust is a non-profit organization in Southern Kenya that works to protect wilderness, wildlife, and culture across the Amboseli-Tsavo ecosystem through projects that directly benefit the local Maasai Community. MWCT supports conservation, education, and health programs which demonstrate that the Maasai can thrive by managing their environment wisely. MWCT employs nearly 250 local community members, and serves a population of 17 000 Maasai.
