YOUR TRUSTED MOBILE SAFARI COMPANY
We Support Namibia
A noteworthy pillar of Karibu Safari is a strong and shared sense of social responsibility. We take note of the socio-economic development challenges of Namibia and recognise the visible gap between those who have and those who do not. For this reason, we make an effort to, and experience great joy in, undertaking numerous social initiatives to help uplift rural communities.
We Promote Sustainable Development
We are also a continued member of the Namibia Nature Foundation (NNF). The primary aims of the foundation are to promote sustainable development,
conservation of biological diversity and natural ecosystems, along with the wise and ethical use of natural resources for the benefit of all Namibians; now and in the future.
