VOLUNTOURISM – REWARDING AND EXPERIENTIAL Lakani believes strongly in giving back to the people who open their homes and hearts to show us their special part of the world. For every finalized booking, Lakani World Tours makes a donation to a local non-profit charitable organization. You also have an opportunity to volunteer in some way to help a community while on tour. This may be as simple as providing and serving breakfast to school children to a more substantial commitment of assisting with home-building or repairs. The options are many and depend on the destination and your own particular interests.
SUSTAINABLE TOURISM Lakani is strongly dedicated to the principles of responsible tourism. We endeavor to protect the environment, economy, and the cultures of the destinations that we include in our programs. By creating itineraries to Africa, for instance, we are contributing to the lives of locals who rely on tourism to make a living by working in the lodges and camps. We support those facilities all the world over that are increasingly using solar energy to provide power; those that use water filtration systems which reduce the use of plastic bottles; and those properties that encourage preservation of natural resources.
MULTI-GENERATIONAL FAMILY TRAVEL Travel not only brings families together but instills a sense of wonderment in the young and old. Children benefit enormously from encounters with different cultures. With the world as a classroom, history is brought to life before their eyes as they view in person the monuments they have learned about at school and in books. There are many ways to create a tour that appeals to grandparents and grandchildren and everyone in between. Some places, like New Zealand and Ireland especially lend themselves to child-friendly destinations where it is easy to find activities to capture the attention of children of all ages. The Lakani experts are particularly adept at advising on and crafting vacations to suit the whole family, regardless of age, for a life-changing adventure for all.
