Our Charter on fair tourism
Download our Charte PSF
Rigour and Reliability:
The entire project (fair touristic activities and sustainable development programmes) is elaborate and jointly run with the local communities and their representatives. This has been so since 2003. Palabres Sans Frontieres is supported by the Midi Pyrenees region, the departmental council of the Haute Garonne, Ministry of youth, sports and community life, Verdie Travels Tour operator ,Taveldif Tour operator etc.
Guaranteed Security:
we assure our tourists of a warm welcome upon arrival in Senegal where a driver who will transport them to the host village will be waiting. The welcome team of Keur Samba Yacine will take over from the driver as soon they arrive the village. The tourists only have to put down their luggage and integrate themselves in the daily activities of the villagers who are more than happy to share their activities and tradition with them.
Transparency:
the association makes sure that it paints a clear picture of the servicesbefore going on the journeyprovided and it also creates awareness on what fair tourism entails. Satisfaction surveys are carried out after every trip.
Equity:
Palabres sans Frontieres is committed to making sure that your trip contributes immensely to improving the lives of the villagers. 39% of the amount charged for this trip goes to different sectors (accommodation, feeding, the various activities) while 10% goes to the maintenance of the medical centre (the purchase of drugs and the salary of the nurse/midwife ). A management board ensures that funds received are equally distributed and sees to it that all funds received are invested in projects that are beneficial to everybody.
