HOW ARE WE DIFFERENT?
Sustainable Tourism
The World Tourism Organization defines sustainable tourism as “tourism that takes full account of its current and future economic, social and environmental impacts, addressing the needs of visitors, the industry, the environment and host communities".
Statement of Impact
We aim to support the impact of local conservation projects and measure the impact of our unique experiences and travel journeys on individual's behavior.
