GSE ECOTOURS

COMMUNITY-BASED VILLAGE HOMESTAYS
We provide you with the opportunity of experiencing a "once in a lifetime" journey as you participate in sustainable community ecotourism projects in rural villages in Kenya.
ABOUT US
We are an independent, well established tour operating company specialising in Village Homestays holidays in Kenya. These holidays provide an alternative form of tourism where the visitor gets to integrate into the host community’s way of life by experiencing their local culture and customs.

GSE Ecotours is part of a wider operation that has its objectives in the promotion of sustainability and conservation of natural resources in rural areas of Kenya. We have helped establish the Non-Profit Organisation Kenya Women’s Community Tourism Association (KWCTA) as well as the grassroots community-owned Mukuru Conservation Trust. We have been involved in a number of projects promoting sustainable forms of agriculture and tourism and the conservation of wildlife in Kenya. We also help local students and foreign researchers to become involved in these fields.

OUR MISSION STATEMENT
To empower communities to integrate conservation
of their environment with economic development
by sustainable use of their resources through tourism

An International Ecotourism Society member.  We are members of the International Ecotourism Society, which exists to unite conservation, communities and Sustainable travel. The Society's recognition of our company is your assurance that our holidays are responsibly run to a high standard and will benefit the host community as well as our clientele.
