Idumela laseKenya njengenye yeendawo ezifudumeleyo ze-safari e-Afrika iye yazinziswa ngokususela kwiminyaka yama-1960, kunye namawaka eendwendwe ezithengelayo kwilizwe ukuphela koMfudumo Omkhulu wonyaka. Namhlanje, ishishini likhenketho lelizwe liye laphuhlisa libe ngumatshini oyile. Kukho inethiwekhi enhle kakhulu yeenqwelo zeenqwelo zangaphakathi, kwaye unokufumana iindawo zokuhlala ezikhuselekileyo kunye neenkampu apha ngaphaya kweyonke indawo kwi-circuit safari ye-Afrika.
Kodwa intlawulo yazo yonke le ninzi iphezulu.
Kukho amaqela angama-25 anqumlayo kunye neendawo zokulala e- Maasai Mara National Reserve . I-safaris ye-minibus inokubanika abo kwi-bhajethi engqongqo-kodwa ingaba ngumqobo kubantu abafuna ukuthembeka. Emva kwakho konke, ukulwa nezihlwele ukufumana imbono ecacileyo yengonyama okanye ibhokhwe kukude kakhulu kumava enomntu onokucinga xa ephupha iAfrika. Isisombululo sabo bafuna ukufumana ubuhle obuhle beKenya? I-safari kwelinye lezolondolozo zelizwe.
Yintoni i-Conservancy?
Ii-Conservancies ziindawo ezininzi zomhlaba, ngokuqhelekileyo zidibene neepaki zelizwe, ukuba abaqhubi be-eco-tourism baqeshwe kwiindawo zasemaphandleni okanye kwiindawo ezizimeleyo. Isivumelwano sisekelwe ekuqondeni ukuba umhlaba oqashiweyo awunasetyenziselwa ukutyalwa kweenkomo okanye ukulima, kodwa washiya yedwa ukusetyenziswa okuthe ngqo kwintlango kunye nabancinci abemi abahamba ngeekhamera.
Kuye kwimeko yokuphumelela kubakhenkethi, iindawo zasendle ezihlala kuzo kunye neenkcubeko zenkcubeko (njengamaMaasai kunye neSamburu ) abahlala kule mimandla.
Indlela I-Conservancies Yaya Ngayo Ngayo
Abantu baseMaasai nabakwaSamburu bangabelusi bezontlupheko abaye bafumana ubunzima obunzima kwiindlela zabo zobomi kwiminyaka embalwa edlulayo.
Umhlaba abaye bahamba ngokukhululekileyo kunye neenkomo zabo zeenkomo ziye zancitshiswa ngokukhululekile ngobukhulu kunye nomgangatho ngenxa yokufama kwezolimo kunye noshintsho lwendalo. Izilwanyana zasendle ziye zachaphazelekayo njengoko iindlela zokufudukela kwemvelo ziye zavalwa kwaye izilwanyana ziye zazingqubana neefama ezikhusela izityalo zazo.
Ngama-1990, i-Kenya eyona ndawo yayithandwa kakhulu yi-safari, iMaasai Mara, yayijongene nokunciphisa ukunyama kwezilwanyana zasendle kunye neentsikelelo zabakhenkethi. Kufuneka kwenziwe okuthile okudala. Umsunguli weenkampu zePorini ze-safari uJake Grieves-Cook wenza ama-70 ama-Maasai ukuba afake eceleni iihektha ezingama-3,200 zelizwe lawo kuphela kwizilwanyana zasendle. Le nto yaba yi-Ol Kinyei Conservancy - indlu yokuqala yokuhlaliswa kommandla eya kusetyenziswa kwiindawo ezikufutshane neMaasai Mara National Reserve. Yayiphakamisela indlela yezinye iindleko ze-conservancies, kungekhona nje kwi-Mara eco-system, kodwa kunye ne-Amboseli.
Kwindawo esemantla yaseLikipia, i-Craig yintsapho iye yaba negalelo ekumiseni i-conservancies kunye noluntu olungaphezu kwama-17 kunye nemimandla. Impumelelo ngokubhekiselele kulondolozo olusisiseko loluntu luye lwalumangalisa kwiindawo zokuhlala ezifana neLoisaba, iLewa kunye no-Ol Pejeta. Akukhona nje kuphela ukunyuka kwezilwanyana zasendle (kuquka i-rhino emhlophe emhlophe nebomnyama) kodwa i-conservancies iye yanceda ekusekeni izikolo kunye neekliniki kulo lonke ummandla.
Enyanisweni, imodeli yokugcinwa kwemisebenzi isebenza kakuhle kangangokuthi i-conservancies entsha isakhiwa kulo lonke elaseKenya.
Izinzuzo ze-Safari ye-Conservancy
Kukho iintlobo ezininzi zokubamba i-safari kwelinye lamasango aseKenya. Eyona nto ibonakalayo yodwa - ayikho imigca ye-minibus, kwaye mhlawumbi uya kuba yedwa imoto ekhoyo kuyo nayiphi na indawo yokubonelela kwezilwanyana zasendle. Ukongeza, ii-conservance zilawulwa ngasese kwaye ngoko zilawulwa ngaphantsi kweepaki. Imisebenzi evinjelwe kwiindawo ezinjengeMaasai Mara kunye ne-Amboseli ziyakwenzeka kwi-conservancies - kuquka ukuhamba nge-safaris, ukuhamba ebusuku kunye ne-safaris kwikamela okanye kwihashe.
Ukuhamba nge-safaris kukugqatso. Ezi zihamba ngokuqhelekileyo zikhokelwa yi-Maasai okanye i-Samburu guide, ekunika ithuba lokuba ufunde kabanzi malunga nenkcubeko ngelixa uzuze ngolwazi lwabo oluhle lwehlathi kunye nabemi balo.
Unokufunda indlela yokuchonga i-spoor, izityalo ezineenjongo zonyango kwaye zisetyenziselwa ukwenza izixhobo zendalo. Ukuhamba nge-safaris kukuvumela ukuba uzicwilise kwimibono, izandi kunye nokuvumba kweenxa zonke. Uza kubona ngaphezulu kwaye ube nethuba elingcono lokubona iintaka kunye neentwanyana ezincinci.
Ikhono lokufumana ukuhamba ebusuku liyisizathu esihle sokutyelela i-conservancy. Emva kobumnyama, isiqithi sitshintshwa sibe yinto ehluke ngokupheleleyo kwihlabathi, kunye nezidalwa ezintsha zezilwanyana ezinobusi ongeke uzibonise ngemini. Ezi ziquka ezininzi zeekati ezincinane zaseAfrika, kunye nezidalwa ezingaqhelekanga njenge-aardvark, bushbaby kunye ne-genet. Ubusuku bobusuku bukunika ithuba elihle lokubona iingwebhu, kunye nezinye izilwanyana ezihlwaya ebusuku. Ukongezelela, iinkwenkwezi zezulu zasebusuku zaseAfrika zibububuhle obungabikho.
Izinzuzo zoLuntu lwasekuhlaleni
Xa ukhetha i-safari yakho ye-safari yakho yaseKenya, uya kuzuza uluntu lwasekuhlaleni. Ngokuqhelekileyo, abantu abahlala kwiindawo ezikufuphi zeepaki zikazwelonke ziphakathi kwezona zihluphekileyo. Ngokuqhelekileyo, amakhaya abo yindlela ende ephuma kumaziko oshishino, kwaye ukufikeleleka kwemisebenzi kunye nezibonelelo kuncitshiswa. Nangona abatyeleli abacebileyo behlalela kwiipaki ezikufutshane, uncinci lwemali yabo ehlengahlengiswa kubantu basekuhlaleni, kunokuba baxhamle kwiibhokisi zelizwe. Kwiimeko ezinjengalezi, akumangalisi ukuba ukukhusela kuba yindlela ekhangayo yokutya intsapho, okanye ukuthumela abantwana esikolweni.
Ukuba ulondolozo lukuba nethuba, uluntu lwengingqi kufuneka lubone inzuzo ngokuthe ngqo kwiiwaka zeedola ezichithwa imihla ngemihla ngomkhenketho oqhelekileyo kwi-safari. I-Conservancies ijolise ukwenza oku, kwaye sele iyenzile kakuhle. Abantu abahlali abahlali bafumana inzuzo yokuhlawula irenti, kodwa iinkampu ze-safari zinika ithuba lokufumana amathuba okwenza umsebenzi. Uninzi lwabasebenzi, abaculi kunye nezikhokelo kwiinkampu ze-safari kwi-conservancies zivela kwingingqi. Uninzi lwezolondolozo luxhaswa ngemithombo yoluntu, kubandakanya izikolo ezifunekayo kunye neeklinikhi.
IiNkampani zeSafari ezineeNdlela zoLondolozo
Iikampu zasePolini zihlala zikhona ooovulindlela, kwaye zinika iinkampu zee-safari ezahlukahlukeneyo kunye neendlela zokuhamba ezifanelekileyo ukuze zihambelane nazo zonke iifijethi. Izinketho zabo zokuhlala ezifanelekileyo ziquka iinkampu ezikhethiweyo eziseSelenkay Conservancy (kufuphi ne-Amboseli), i-Ol Kinyei Conservancy kunye ne-Olare Orok Conservancy (kufuphi ne-Maasai Mara) ne-Ol Pejeta Conservancy (e-Laikipia). Ngamnye unikezela iirhafu zonke ezibandakanya ukutya, iziphuzo, iimoto kunye nemisebenzi. Uludwe lweenkampani zendlela ecebisayo kukunika ithuba lokutyelela iinkampu ezininzi kwihambo elinye.
I-Cheli kunye nePeacock isebenza nge-safaris ye-luxury ehambela iinkampu ezikude kwii-conservancies kulo lonke elaseKenya. Isampula zabo zenkampu ziquka ukuhlala kwiimpawu ezinjenge-Elsa's Kopje, iLewa Safari Camp, i-Elephant Pepper Camp kunye neLosaisaba. Ngokufanayo, uMqhubi weNdalo yeNdalo yeNdalo uhlinzeka ngeendlela ezili-10 ezihamba phambili ze-Kenya ezihamba phambili ezibandakanya iinkampu kwiindawo ezininzi ezidumileyo, kuquka neLewa Wildlife Conservancy kunye neNaboisho Conservancy.
