Responsible Travel helps travellers live their dreams through authentic and life-enriching adventures, ensuring local people and wildlife benefit and being a catalyst for change in the industry.
Responsible Travel is a platform for ethical tour providers, with a rigorous screening process in place to ensure each company fits the guidelines to be represented on the site.
The company is growing by 22% each year with its profits dependent on an 'Honesty Box' where tour providers voluntarily declare their commission.
Its holiday collection includes tours from almost 400 small, specialist and ethical tour operators and operates in 190+ countries
Alongside the holidays it markets, Responsible Travel has three other core programmes to drive positive change in the tourism industry:
Activism : campaigning for more responsible types of tourism worldwide.
Trip for a Trip : funding a day trip for a disadvantaged child in a developing country for every holiday booking (where the customer opts in), and
The World Responsible Tourism Awards (founded in 2004) celebrate and recognising the businesses around the world that are innovating and leading the way in responsible tourism.
