A new category of intentional wildlife travel that distills the safari to its most meaningful impact moments

HIGH POINT, NC / ACCESS Newswire / February 12, 2026 / Rewild Safaris today announced their Essential Series, a purpose-driven collection of curated wildlife journeys built for travelers seeking deeper meaning in their vacation time. Designed with intention, not compromise, each itinerary distills the essential elements of a transformative safari into a single impactful week. These journeys connect guests directly with iconic wildlife, local conservation groups, and the ecosystems where our collective protection efforts matter most.

Rather than shortening a classic safari, the Essential Series are purpose-built from the outset. Each trip is crafted to maximize field time, minimize transit, and center travelers inside the stories of species, landscapes, and people working to protect them.

"A meaningful safari is defined by purpose and connection, not by how long you're away," said James Ward, Chief Explorations Officer and award-winning conservation photographer. "With our Essential Series safaris, we've kept only what matters most: immersive wildlife encounters, hands-on conservation access, and the ability to see the wild through the eyes of the people safeguarding it. If travelers can give us a week, we can give them something life-changing."

Every itinerary is grounded in nature-positive travel, long-standing conservation partnerships, and field experiences that elevate understanding of ecosystems at critical moments in their conservation timeline.
