And thus TerraFauna Journeys launched into the travel world in 2025, changing the face of luxury travel by integrating mission with travel. Born out of the passion of Ami Jones, a veteran travel designer and 15-plus-year individual in the sustainable tourism field, there was nothing in or about travel that deserved making the portfolio, except a new definition of what it meant to travel with purpose. The company’s purpose is to create transformational experiences that not only take guests to the world’s wildest places but also help protect them and give back to the communities that call them home.

At a time when more and more travellers are looking for authentic travel experiences while lessening negative environmental impact, the TerraFauna philosophy is in line with the demand for responsible travel. In fact, 93% of world travellers today prefer sustainable and responsible travel decisions, and TerraFauna leads the way in that charge.

A New Approach to Luxury Travel

Conventional luxury travel tends to be all about excess—opulent hotels, high-end experiences, and indulgent services. TerraFauna turns this notion on its head, providing instead access to raw, natural beauty; cosy and sustainable lodgings; and the opportunity to participate in preserving what we all treasure. Rather than mere visitors to far-away places, TerraFauna’s visitors partner with conservationists, indigenous leaders, and ecological researchers to actively maintain and protect these precious environments. This “emotional travel” approach allows tourists to form meaningful relationships with nature, and the impact is positive in the long term.

Observation is not where the journey ends. TerraFauna offers travellers the opportunity to get involved with the conservation of biodiversity and protection of the wildlife by participating in key ecological projects. “We’re not just checking out these wild places,” says founder Ami Jones. We work with those people who are defending them.” Through this approach, TerraFauna is able to deliver immersive, hands-on experiences in which travellers can be made to feel like partners in impactful conservation work.

TerraFauna’s Curated Journeys

TerraFauna offers a range of exclusive, purpose-driven travel experiences, each co-created with conservationists and Indigenous communities. Some of the company’s pilot journeys include:

• Guardians of the Wild (Uganda): This trip takes travellers on an unforgettable gorilla trekking experience in Uganda’s Bwindi Impenetrable Forest, one of the last remaining habitats for mountain gorillas. Guests will work alongside wildlife rangers like Denis Onyiko and his team to support ongoing efforts to protect these endangered primates. This journey offers not just adventure but a chance to directly engage in gorilla conservation and community outreach.
• Roots of the Wild (Argentina): A journey through Argentina’s Iberá Wetlands allows travellers to actively participate in rewilding and ecological restoration projects. With the help of Rewilding Argentina, TerraFauna’s guests will take part in vital efforts to restore native habitats, reintroduce extinct species, and preserve one of the world’s most biodiverse ecosystems.
• Pulse of the Earth (Australia): This journey introduces travellers to the ancient cultures and ecological practices of Australia’s First Nations peoples. Guests will learn about regenerative land care, cultural fire practices, and ancient songlines that have helped Indigenous communities live sustainably on the land for thousands of years. The experience highlights the intersection of culture and conservation and offers a holistic view of Australia’s environmental stewardship.

Founding Voyagers: A Legacy of Conservation

To kick off, TerraFauna is inviting a limited number of travellers to sign up as Founding Voyagers. These select members will enjoy lifetime privileges such as priority booking, personalised access to TerraFauna’s future odysseys, impact-related discounts, and special gifts. Moreover, a conservation gift will be donated in the name of each Voyager to reinforce the conservationists TerraFauna works with.

The Founding Voyagers are not just the first to embark on TerraFauna’s groundbreaking environmental travel experiences; they’re the ones to herald an entirely new way to travel: one centred on sustainability, conservation, and community. “Founding Voyagers” are not just first in line, at least according to Jones. They are the first to want to believe that there is a better way to travel.”

TerraFauna’s Commitment to Sustainable Tourism

TerraFauna Journeys is deeply committed to supporting the local communities it works with. Every journey is developed in close partnership with Indigenous leaders and local conservationists, ensuring that the experiences are rooted in genuine conservation efforts and respect for local cultures. Guests are not just tourists—they become active participants in protecting the landscapes and species they visit.

Sustainability also extends to their business practices. The company ensures that all its itineraries are designed to have minimal environmental impact, and the luxury accommodations they provide are carefully chosen for their commitment to eco-friendly practices. From sustainable meals to the use of low-impact transportation, TerraFauna integrates sustainability into every aspect of its operations.

Reimagining Luxury: Access and Impact

In traditional luxury travel, luxury is often associated with abundance and excess. But at TerraFauna, luxury is about access to nature’s most pristine locations and the chance to make a tangible impact. Every journey is designed to provide both immersive comfort and an opportunity for meaningful contribution. Guests can rest assured that they are experiencing a vacation that not only enhances their lives but also supports the planet’s most vital ecosystems.

The luxury of the brand lies not in the material comforts provided, but in the exclusive access to remote wilderness, the chance to learn from local conservationists and Indigenous communities, and the opportunity to leave a legacy that transcends the trip itself. By choosing TerraFauna, travellers are making a statement that luxury and sustainability can—and should—go hand in hand.

Join the TerraFauna Movement

TerraFauna Journeys invites the adventurous traveller to a new age of luxury travel. With TerraFauna, they can go on a quest that brings them not adventure but the opportunity to make a genuinely permanent, positive difference. As the world becomes more and more dominated by travellers looking for bona fide connections to nature and measured experiences, TerraFauna is taking the lead in the conservation travel movement.
