We Are Committed to Conservation

At MT Sobek, we are not simply observers of the world’s unique cultures and delicate environments, we take an active role in their preservation. Supporting worthy organizations that contribute to the betterment of societies around the world and protection of the wild and beautiful places we visit is part of our DNA. Over the years we have raised more than half a million dollars for conservation and have volunteered hundreds of hours of staff time for local environmental clean-ups, including Yosemite Facelift.

Protect The Galapagos

MT Sobek is proud to support the Galapagos Conservancy by making an annual conservation investment to its Santiago Society program. Galapagos Conservancy is dedicated exclusively to the long-term protection of the Galapagos Islands, and collaborates closely with the Charles Darwin Foundation, the Galapagos National Park, and many other institutions that are committed to the conservation of the entire archipelago.

Save the Tiger

MT Sobek guide Brian Weirum has made saving tigers his life’s mission, and a key component of that is our annual Save the Tiger trip, which Brian designed and has led every year for over two decades. A portion of the proceeds from every Save the Tiger trip goes to Brian’s non-profit: The Fund for the Tiger. MT Sobek has raised over $300,000 to help support tiger conservation in India and Nepal.

Preserve Alaska

The Alaska Conservation Foundation is the only public foundation solely dedicated to conservation in Alaska. The ACF’s vision is for an inspiring Alaska that is naturally thriving, biologically and culturally diverse, rich in wildlands, bountiful in terrestrial and marine life, sustainable in its economic development and thoughtfully protected—forever. MT Sobek supports the ACF by sharing their mission and vision with generations of adventure travelers.

Imvelo Safari Lodges

Imvelo Safari Lodges have spent over 20-years creating symbiotic relationships between man and nature, forming mutually beneficial relationships within our surroundings, and learning how to protect all living things for future generations. We are proud to work with Imvelo Safari Lodges in Hwange National Park, Zimbabwe.

National Park Service

MT Sobek is proud to be an authorized concessionaire of the National Park Service and a permitted outfitter under the National Forest Service and Bureau of Land Management. We always follow Leave No Trace principles and seek to drive awareness of fragile ecosystems to help support their long-term sustainability.
