COVID Campaign

The whole world is facing the economic impacts of COVID-19 as flights are grounded. Like other travel companies, Halal Safaris has put travel plans on hold for now and as such stopped selling any trips to their most popular destination, Lamu until further notice like many other travel companies. As such, the economic impact of the virus has brought the Lamu to its knees. 

Lamu Archipelago is located on North East Coast of Kenya along the Indian Ocean coastline. It is one of the earliest seaports in East Africa that attracted traders from various parts of world. Lamu, Kenya has remained one of our most popular destinations and was where halal safaris was first founded. As such, Halal Safaris has prioritized it’s COVID support to the destination. Due to COVID, the popular beaches and resorts in Lamu remain empty. To an already poor community, the impact is significant and stakeholders have had to get innovative.

To help mitigate the impact of new coronavirus on the local economy, Halal Safaris has started a #StayHome #TravelTomorrow campaign which asks future travelers to buy from local businesses and donate to charities in Lamu in exchange a 15% discount to travel anytime until end of 2021. Claim your voucher by emailing us your receipt and payment confirmation at ecosoko@halalsafaris.africa.

Stay home and we’ll bring Lamu home to you through buying art from local artisans via our EcoSoko project, or donate to any the charities below to be eligible. Donations and purchases must be above $20 and must be made by May 31, 2020.
