I'm not even sure I should be considering this at all but hear me out. It's my 30th this year and I want to go on a really special holiday - preferably one that involves animals. I've heard stories of safaris where several vehicles just chase one animal and that sounds crappy for all concerened but surely there are some safaris where you don't feel like you're exploiting the animals/ the environment? Obviously they can't be without any impact at all, and I know that many of the more 'eco' options are way beyond our price range although they sound amazing. A lot of the areas are referred to as 'game reserves' - is this a generic term or are there some safaris where half the guests are photographing the animals while the other half are shooting them?!
I tried googling vegan or even vegetarian safari and can't really find anything. I would have thought at least one company would offer a 100% veggie catered safari (looking at animals all day and then eating some in the evening is too perverse!)
So basically my questions are: Do people think a safari can ever be vegan in it's widest sense? If not, does anyone have any specific ideas for a similar kind of holiday? Has anyone been on an organised holiday where all the food served was vegan?
Thanks!
