"The host families are carefully selected by our local partner and meet strict requirements."

Director Fairaway

Host families
During the trips we spend several nights with local host families in groups of 2 - 3 participants. Housing varies from simple bricks houses with corrugated roofs (Tanzania) to clay shacks with straw roofs (Ghana). Some houses do not have access to electricity and running water. Showering is done with a bucket of water, and the toilet is usually just a hole in the ground. So, we’re going back to basic, but this makes a Fairaway trip an unforgettable experience.
All host families are personally known by our local partner and visited before every trip. We have clear agreements with all host families. In addition, extra safety measure are of course taken when necessary, like sleeping under a mosquito net.
Food and drinks
In order to minimise the risk of disease, hygienic cooking is very important. We prefer the usage of bottled or boiled water. All vegetables and fruits will be peeled and/or cooked.
Transportation
In our host countries we make use of reliable vans as a means of transportation. These vans are operated by experienced drivers with a valid license. Generally we do not travel when it’s dark outside. When we travel by public transport, we always choose to travel with safe tourist buses.
