"As we breakfast on the sweetest mango and ranger's omelette, overlooking fever trees glowing golden under the morning sun, it's apparent the breeze around the Ubombo mountain range at Phinda Private Game Reserve in KwaZulu-Natal in South Africa brings change," says Alice B-B in the Financial Times. "Sustainable travel" has long been in demand, but opportunities are now opening up for travellers to fund conservation work that they can also participate in, which can aid "the protection of a species or of a whole ecosystem".
