Abandera Africa Royal Trails

Abandera Africa Royal Trails welcomes you to East Africa. East Africa is synonymous with the word 

"Safari", which in Swahili means "to journey" or to trail. Through this land of abundant wildlife, beautiful 

scenery, diverse cultures and friendly people. Join us on Safari in Africa and make your dream come 

true.

 

The richness of the African wilderness is unsurpassed and this continues to draw the people of various 

nations to the countries of Kenya, Uganda and Tanzania. Wildlife safaris in Kenya and Tanzania has 

never been more exciting; similarly Gorilla Tracking adventures in Uganda, hiking on Mount Kenya, 

climbing Mt Kilimanjaro and beach holidays on the Indian Ocean Islands of Mombasa, Lamu and 

Zanzibar are just a fascinating. 

 

Apart from the regular safaris we have a new range of tours that involve home stays around Lake 

Victoria. These take the traveler to culturally rich regions of Lake Victoria and include cultural 

immersions, study tours, ecotourism safaris, folklore and Lake Victoria fishing trips. Accommodation on 

these safaris is in secure modern country homes or traditional homes with local fare. These Lake Victoria 

safaris offer the client the best opportunity to learn the culture and interact with the people of Western 

Kenya. 

 

Come and enjoy the professional services offered by Abandera Africa Royal Trails and experience the 

exhilarating safaris that are a trade mark of this renowned East Africa tour company.

Ecotourism:

 

One of the core activities of Abandera Africa Royal Trails is ecotourism in Kenya, with particular 

concentration in Central and Western Kenya. The purpose of these safaris is to ensure that our clientele 

interact with the local people in the areas they visit even as these indigenous peoples earn directly from 

these tours: 

 

Agro-tourism:

  Abandera Africa Royal Trails as a number of agrotourism itineraries in central and Western Kenya. This 

concept is a direct expansion of ecotourism, which encourages visitors to experience agricultural life at 

first hand. This type of tourism is gathering strong support from small communities as rural people have 

realized the benefits of sustainable development brought about by similar forms of "green tourism". 

Visitors have the opportunity to work in the fields alongside real farmers and wade knee-deep in the sea 

with fishermen hauling in their nets in Lake Victoria.

 

Community Based Tourism: 

The aim of Abandera Africa Royal Trails is to enable participation from the local community in the 

development and operations of tourism with their consent and support. Another important feature is 

that a reasonable share of the revenues is enjoyed by the local communities in Kenya where we 

undertake these tours. This type of tourism also maintains and respects the local culture, heritage and 

traditions. Often, community-based tourism actually reinforces and sometimes rescues these. 

Community-based tourism also implies respect and concern for the natural heritage, particularly where 

the environment is one of the attractions.

 

Nature Tourism: 

This interlinks with ecotourism but concentrates more on enjoying and respecting the wildlife and the 

environment without the educational element present in ecotourism. We offer a variety of tours to 

wildlife parks and sanctuaries across East Africa.

Pro-poor Tourism: 

Our Company is involved in this type of tourism as a means to improve the local economy for local 

people. We link up with poor people in the rural areas so that poverty is reduced and poor people are 

able to participate more effectively in tourism development while earning an adequate income. The 

aims of pro-poor ranges from increasing local employment to involving local people in the decision 

making process. The most important factor is that poor rural people receive an increase in the net 

benefits from tourism.
