Environment sustainability

In all Eco-Africa Climbing operations, we continually strive to reduce our impacts, including the environmental impacts associated with our tours. We recognize that travel, especially road travel, has a direct impact on the environment. Transport energy consumption from our safari vehicles fuels and transfer transportation represents approximately 30% of our total CO2 emissions. At Eco-Africa Climbing we are committed to reducing the CO2 emissions while conducting our tours in Tanzania.

  • We are donating some of our profit to plant trees in Moshi, We have been working with several schools in Moshi, whereby we buy the trees and plant them in those school and those school help us to take care those tree as each student will be responsible to make sure the tree growth. We have started doing this since 2017 and some of our clients have been participating in this.
