MISSION STATEMENT
OUR MISSION We are so passionate on what we do…therefore our mission is divided into four categories:
1. CLIENT MISSION we are dedicated to offering the highest quality, safest and best value trips that we can. But on top of offering an excellent product, we are also committed to making a positive change in the lives of our clients..
2. EMPLOYEES MISSION
Traditionally, members of the travel and tours industries; guides, leaders and instructors, are paid very low wages despite the difficult and skilled work they carry out. We at African Drifters understand that our company would be nothing without the hard work, enthusiasm and skill of our talented trip leaders, trip developers, guides, instructors and other employees and it is our desire to reward our team members for their effort. For this reason, not only do we pay generous wages that exceed industry averages, but we also provide significant profit share and bonus schemes to ensure our employees directly benefit from their excellent work. We also give our employees significant freedom to create, run and manage our trips so that they feel a sense of ownership over the trips they lead and we involve them as much as possible in the strategic development of our company so that they feel a part of a common vision. It is our goal to become the employer of choice in the tours and travel industries and to be recognized by our team members as a generous, inspiring, and great place to work. We hope to contribute to our employees’ lives by allowing them to pursue their passion for travel and the tours s while still being able to make a comfortable living. Please feel free to tip the tour guides for a job well done after the safari.
3. SOCIAL MISSION
By the very fact that it brings together people from all different cultures and backgrounds, travel has an enormous power to unite and improve people’s understanding of each other. It also has great potential to improve the economic welfare of the world’s poorest populations by providing new sources of income. Without careful monitoring, however, tourism also has great power to inflict negative change upon the world by creating ecological damage, uprooting communities, and perpetuating cultural stereotypes as a result of close-minded and culturally insensitive travelers. We seek to maximize the positive impact of our trips on the local communities we visit and eliminate potential negative effects. In addition to involving local people in our trips, we try to meet this goal by creating itineraries that allow clients to experience the local culture through food, festivals, activities and cultural sites. Please feel free to donate to them if you identify any needs they might have you may contact us on how to go about it.
4. ENVIRONMENTAL MISSION
It is our mission to serve as beacons for those who want to preserve what is left for generations to come. In our simple way, we ask that you come join us on a journey to discover the subtle treasures of Botswana. In doing so, it will awaken you to all the rich historical, cultural and natural resources that she offers. To minimize our impact on the environments we follow the principles of a non-profit organization that is dedicated to promoting and inspiring responsible tours recreation. These principles include: 1. Plan ahead and prepare 2. Travel and camp on durable surfaces 3. Dispose of waste properly 4. Leave what you find 5. Minimize camp fire impacts 6. Respect wildlife 7. Beconsiderate of other visitors
VISION To become the most preferred tour operator in the region and our clients’ best friend by always providing the best possible product, with the highest quality of services, and demonstrating faithfully our commitment towards social and environmental responsibility.
MOTTO it’s time to explorethe hidden treasures!
