07 Jun Askari wins 2022 Tripadvisor Travellers’ Choice Award

Askari’s Great Volunteer Reviews Land it a Place Among Travellers’ Favourites

Pidwa Wilderness Reserve – 2^nd June 2022 – Askari Wilderness Conservation is proud to announce that it has been recognised by Tripadvisor as a 2022 Travellers’ Choice award winner.  The award celebrates businesses that have received great traveller reviews from travellers around the globe on Tripadvisor over the last 12 months. As challenging as the past year was, Askari stood out by consistently delivering positive experiences to volunteers.

Upon receiving the award, Askari manager Katie Rooke said “A Trip advisor award always means the world to us. To be so highly rated by our volunteers is what we strive for every day and we are so proud of Askari and all its different aspects. While, of course, our main goal is to protect our wilderness and wildlife, it is also so important that we give a well-rounded educational and life-changing experience to those who give up their time to work with us. Volunteers become part of our extended family and we want to say a huge thank you to all of you for sticking with us over the last 2 years and still managing to make the trip and volunteer with us.”

“Congratulations to the 2022 Tripadvisor Travellers’ Choice Winners,” said Kanika Soni, Chief Commercial Officer at Tripadvisor. “The Travellers’ Choice Awards recognise the best in tourism and hospitality, according to those who matter most: your guests. Ranking among the Travellers’ Choice winners is always tough — but never more so than this year as we emerge from the pandemic. Whether it’s using new technology, implementing safety measures, or hiring outstanding staff, I’m impressed by the steps you’ve taken to meet travellers’ new demands. You’ve adapted brilliantly in the face of adversity.”
