ENVI Sisini Serengeti has officially become a member of the Beyond Green portfolio of sustainable accommodation upholding high responsible tourism standards. The lodge joins a select group of properties dedicated to environmental conservation, cultural heritage preservation and community-driven initiatives.

To qualify for Beyond Green inclusion, properties undergo an extensive vetting process aligned with 50+ global sustainability criteria and the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. ENVI Sisini Serengeti’s membership reflects its commitment to:

• Environmentally friendly operations exceeding basic sustainability requirements.
• Protection of cultural and natural heritage ensuring conservation remains a priority.
• Economic and social benefits for local communities to foster long-term positive impacts.

As part of the rigorous evaluation, the Serengeti-based property passed an on-site inspection confirming adherence to Beyond Green’s sustainability pillars.

ENVI Sisini Serengeti integrates eco-conscious initiatives into aspects of its operations:

• Local employment: Supporting economic growth with 96% of staff from Tanzania.
• Sustainable sourcing: Locally procured ingredients and training for farmers.
• Plastic-free operations: Reusable water bottles for guests to eliminate single-use plastics.
• Reforestation efforts: Inviting visitors to plant trees in alignment with the Serengeti National Park’s objectives.

“Achieving Beyond Green certification is a significant milestone for ENVI Sisini Serengeti,” said Paul Jordaan, Executive Director of ENVI Lodges. “It recognises our dedication to sustainability and conservation while inspiring us to set even higher standards for responsible tourism in the Serengeti and beyond.”
