Sustainability & Conservation

Picture
Nature  and conservation is our passion!

Habitat Tours provides guests with opportunities to experience unique wildlife, flora and stunning landscapes in some of New Zealand’s wonderful natural destinations.

Our values and practices are to support these natural environments in the best sustainable way to safeguard it for our future generations.

The Habitat team are passionate conservationists who are inspired by the Maori values of guardianship, Kaitiakitanga; we believe the places we visit are precious, unique, and deserving of our protection.

When you tour with us you will see us caring for the environment that we have the privilege to share with you.

Our commitments to sustainability and environment conservation:
  • Being a sustainable Tour operator – New Zealand Tourism Sustainability Commitment
  • Inspire others through our conservation success stories
  • To share our knowledge with our guests regarding the unique flora, fauna, and history of New Zealand
  • including all the present and future conservation challenges.
  • To work towards being carbon neutral; we are regularly involved in volunteering with tree planting
  • Maintaining low impact on the environment:
                   >  Small groups of maximum 7 visitors – low impact on the environment
                   >  High awareness around wildlife – being sensitive to their space and environment.
                   >  Taking away only what we’ve brought in, including rubbish
  • To pick up any rubbish found on our walks
  • Local purchases - where possible, organic and seasonal produce supporting the local community
  • Use biodegradable and non-toxic cleaning products
  • Vehicles well maintained and serviced
  • Bees wax food coverings to eliminate plastic wrap
  • Reusable water bottles using filtered water
  • Composting for food scraps and recycling where possible

“Walking the talk” and caring for our environment:
     We support conservation projects:
  • Volunteering with TOSSI (Tawharanui Open Sanctuary Society) - Tree Planting, weeding, wildlife monitoring, pest trapping
  • For each guest taken to Tawharanui we make a trip donation to TOSSI

      Your support for the environment: how to be a sustainable traveler:
  • Here are some things you can do to get involved in sustainability and conservation during your travels:
  • Offsetting your flights – many airlines offer carbon offset programs.
  • Say no to plastic
  • Protect and support wildlife
  • Support the local economy
  • Choose sustainable tourism businesses
