Our Impact

Wildlife and Places
We travel with respect for the places we go – from the natural environments we explore to the wildlife that calls those places home. Though we've been carbon neutral since 2010, we know that's not enough. That’s why we have verifiable science-based targets to reduce our emissions and follow carefully crafted animal welfare guidelines.
People and Communities
We think globally, act locally, and engage personally. Basically, we’re a global collective that’s local at heart, with locally-based leaders out front of every trip and community-based tourism experiences on a number of adventures. From homestays to Indigenous community-led experiences, we look for opportunities to keep the economic benefits of travel where they belong.
