Animal welfare is an important focus area for TourCompass, so we follow World Animal Protection’s global guidelines for animal protection in tourism.

We know that as a travel company we play a crucial role in the development of more animal-friendly tourism. That is why we distance ourselves from all entertainment involving wild animals.

So, when you travel with TourCompass, you cannot:

  • Swim with or see dolphins perform in captivity
  • Ride on, bathe with or wash elephants
  • Stroke lions and cheetahs
  • Take selfies with tigers
  • Watch monkey and bear shows

Instead, we support responsible, well-run, animal-friendly reserves and rescue and rehabilitation centres recognised, where possible, by World Animal Protection.

They help to support the phasing out of wild animals in captivity, and their aim is to reintroduce the animals into their natural habitat if possible.

When you travel with TourCompass, you are thus contributing to increased focus on and demand for more animal-friendly tourism that both protects the animals and supports the work at the reserves and in rescue and rehabilitation centres.
