Our zoo and clients were extremely happy with our travels to Africa and the quality of the safaris provided a basis for building relationships with our patrons. The one-on-one service and personal communication with Ujuzi African Travel made a huge difference.

Don Tillman, Development Director | Dickerson Park Zoo

Our travel program helps us build relationships with donors to engage them in our mission of conservation and to hopefully increase their support of the zoo as well. We have had donors that were somewhat new to the zoo that joined us on our Africa trips, and in some cases, we saw immediate increased giving. We feel travel programs are an important part of the work we do.

Tracey Gazibara, Vice President of Development & Marketing | Cheyenne Mountain Zoo

This was my first time traveling abroad and I can honestly say, I was never worried or concerned about anything. I felt totally taken care of and just enjoyed each day as it came—stress-free! You took care of us every step of the way and answered any questions we may have had. This trip was a long time coming, but so very worth the wait.

Kathy Terlizzi, Volunteer Coordinator | Fort Wayne Children's Zoo

Personalized Planning

Anne Medeiros - Ujuzi African Travel

I am Anne Medeiros, the owner of Ujuzi African Travel. I will work with you to create custom safaris that provide the most impact for your development and conservation goals.

Thanks to years of experience and long-established relationships in multiple African countries, I can also connect you and your patrons with organizations on the ground in Africa that share your passions. Schedule a call to learn more!

Customized Itineraries

Every African safari we plan is one of a kind. While we are happy to offer sample itineraries to jog your imagination, we encourage you to dream beyond these. Let us help you create a singular adventure that reflects your institution’s unique needs.

Are your patrons united by a shared passion for a specific species or ecological niche? Would you like to highlight an existing relationship your institution has with wildlife restoration programs in Africa? We will be delighted to create a special-interest African safari that allows your patrons to explore these interests in authentic ways.

Marketing

Travel programs raise public awareness of your institution and bring patrons closer to the issues you care about. Ujuzi African Travel works with you to integrate travel into your overall marketing plan.

We also provide marketing support for each trip, with options that include publicizing your trips on social media, through brochures and postcards to share with your patrons, and in-person presentations to potential travelers.
