Our approach to responsible tourism means that Peregrine only employs tour leaders and guides
who are local to the destination. We prefer local leaders because they can speak the language,
read the menus, identify fruit in the markets, explain the culture and give our clients an insight into
their homeland's lifestyle and traditions in a way that a most foreign leaders cannot.
The three exceptions are our polar expeditions (where we employ leaders from around the world with specific skills),
our Himalayan climbs (where we employ both local guides and a foreign expedition leader on each trip), and multi-country
trips (where we employ leaders born in the region).
We advertise new positions for our Australian offices in capital city newspapers and on this website.
