In this age traveling becomes more and more important to people around the globe. To keep an eye on nature and the people and to balance tourism, welfare and conservation, BirdsConTour gives back by investing in welfare, conservation and tourism projects.

By traveling directly with BirdsConTour or making use of a guide from BirdsConTour you support our welfare, conservation and tourism projects and create an economic platform for local livelihoods. Sometimes travelers also participate in another BirdsConTour project. To say THANK YOU, every tour participant receives a Tourism Support Award at the end of the tour.

Travelers from all over the world are awarded with a BirdsConTour Tourism Support Award, such as travelers from Switzerland, Netherlands, Germany and Namibia.

Twelve German-speaking guests were rewarded with Tourism Support 2014 Awards:

De Wit Hedwig & Jacobus

Freier Petra & Matthias

Goll Christel Petra & Helmut
