The People’s Path is a gem in Botswana’s tourism landscape, spotlighting the rich cultural diversity, unique traditions and skills, and warm hospitality of the Batswana, the people of Botswana. Visitors to the People’s Path are directly uplifting local communities and cultures while sustainably contributing to local economies – truly leveraging responsible, sustainable tourism to change local lives for the better. Likewise, our goal is that the People’s Path traveler also benefits from a deeper engagement, an opportunity for a more intentional connection to something or someone new, and a more meaningful, fulfilling and rewarding travel experience. One that, we hope, will be life-changing for you as well.
Beyond the lush landscapes and incredible wildlife, Botswana has a wealth of cultural heritage to share with its visitors. The People’s Path was created to showcase unique experiences (including meeting local artisans and experiencing crafting, dancing, story-telling, beer brewing, and more), shopping opportunities, and delicious local cuisine venues sometimes bypassed on a visitor’s way out to safari.
Travel for Impact and Impact Fund are proud to support the many local artisans and entrepreneurs along the Peoples’ Path through training, mentoring, and financial support (made possible by our funding partners) that assists them in entering the tourism value chain effectively, lifting up not only the entrepreneur, but also their families, employees, and wider communities.
