    Provider checklist — Kenya

    Last updated:

    Ask these questions in writing before you book. A reputable provider will answer them clearly. Evasion or vague responses are a red flag.

    • Is the wildlife project registered with KWS (Kenya Wildlife Service) and what's the conservation methodology?
    • What's the local-staff-to-volunteer ratio on the project?
    • What's your protocol if I'm asked to do something that violates animal welfare standards?
