Our Conservation Statement

Pete Oxford Expeditions is wholly-owned by Pete Oxford & Reneé Bish who are professional conservation photographers and renowned expedition leaders


We are committed to making a difference on this planet through imagery, storytelling and raising awareness. We can do this by supporting sustainable travel and by committing ourselves to organizations worldwide whose mission is to preserve, and protect wildlife and fragile habitats.

Responsible Tourism

A moral obligation to help to conserve our home, the earth


We believe that every traveler who benefits from a visit to a National Park or Wilderness destination has a moral obligation to help to conserve it.

At Pete Oxford Expeditions, we donate funds, our time, our wide-ranging expertise and our photographic work to provide educational presentations worldwide on behalf of conservation and the organizations that we have come to trust and believe in. We are convinced that our donations make a difference.

We are committed to donate $100 for every client that travels with us to a local, in-country, conservation initiative. Our hope is that you, in turn, will match our donation. Our aim is to leave MORE than just footprints.

We strongly urge you to do the same – to make a difference.
