First international saiga ecotour to coincide with the Year of the Saiga

07.02.2010

In collaboration with the Rostov-based tour company Saga Tours, and with the Saiga Conservation Alliance, the UK-based company Eastern Approaches is offering a new cultural tour of the saiga range area in southern Russia, to run in August 2010. The tour will include visits to key SCA project sites, including the Saiga Breeding Centre and the Steppnoi Reserve. We hope that this will be the first in a range of saiga-based eco-tourism initiatives targetted at different interest groups and price brackets, and it is particularly timely that this initiative is starting in Kalmykia's Year of the Saiga.

More information and booking forms can be found at the Eastern Approaches website here. For further details and a full itinerary download the document below.
