SMALL RIPPLES MAKE BIG WAVES

We know the travel industry isn’t perfect, but small steps in the right direction can make a big difference in helping us protect the world as we explore it! We’ll do our bit to make sure that you’re staying in the right hotel, participating in activities that give back to the community and having authentic experiences whilst learning about cultures. We aim to inspire and create sustainable adventures.

SUPPORTING LOCALS

Working with local suppliers means that we are supporting the businesses within the community and providing our clients with a unique adventure.

ANIMAL WELFARE

We want to help travellers make responsible choices around wildlife interaction. Changing our behaviour and educating ourselves on how we can make a difference is a positive step. Animals belong in the wild and we’ll make sure that all animal interaction is in their natural environment or in a conservation area that helps protect the wildlife.

1% of profits are donated to Hebridean Whale & Dolphin Trust

Our commitment to protect whales, help end captivity, and create healthy seas. Whales naturally capture carbon and if we can increase the population of whales this can have a significant impact on climate change.

We’re supporting the incredible work of the Hebridean Whale & Dolphin Trust.

Favourite Destination – Vietnam

Travel has always been a big passion of mine, and upon returning home from an 18 month round the world trip in 2015, I knew I had to continue my love of travel through work! Having spent the last five years in the travel industry, I have noticed that as travelling becomes more accessible, it also increases the damage on our incredible fragile world. I believe that now is the time for a change, and I can’t wait to help travellers make positive changes while enjoying that trip of a lifetime!

Favourite Destination – Costa Rica

I am incredibly passionate about travelling and have been very lucky to explore all over the world. My favourite trip was nine months in South America, as I loved learning about each countries’ culture and exploring the diverse environments. I especially loved seeing the Penguins in their natural habitat in Argentina. My passion for travel plus my firm belief that we need to protect the world as we explore are the reasons I want to offer exciting and sustainable travel adventures.

We woofing love exploring new places and our favourite destination has to be our trip to Cornwall. We all got to explore the wonderful coasts of Cornwall and dig big holes on the white sandy beaches.

 

Our owners are a little dog crazy and are always on the hunt for dog-friendly destinations to explore. Our most recent adventure was to Morzine in France together.
