Spot the big five in Italy on a European safari

Safaris have long been synonymous with Africa, but that could soon change thanks to an exciting partnership between Rewilding Europe and the European Safari Company. 

Rewilding Europe’s aim is to create at least 10 large, rewilded landscapes in different regions across Europe, whilst exploring ways in which people can earn a fair living from the wild. The European Safari Company arranges holidays that heal within the areas where Rewilding Europe work. A portion of each booking goes to supporting rewilding initiative and travellers learn about conservation efforts whilst they discover a wilder side to Europe.

Weather you choose to Kayak through the Rhodope Mountains of Bulgaria home to wolves & bears, or track the big 5 in Italy (Marsican brown bears, wolves, deer, wild boar and the Apennine chamois) you are guaranteed a truly unique experience to rival any African safari.

There is a growing trend for holidays with purpose, which deliver unique experiences and allow people to reconnect with nature and support local communities. This partnership represents a wonderful example of this.
