The Nomad Almanac features Gondwana Ecotours as one of their highlighted sustainable and ethical travel companies.
The Nomad Almanac highlights Gondwana Ecotours in its list of 20 notable travel companies that are sustainable and ethical. These companies are for those who are “conscious about the footprint [they] leave as [they] travel around the world”, underscoring a growing priority to travel ethically.
It points to Gondwana Ecotours’ ethos to leave a “smaller carbon footprint and less negative impacts on the local communities” to mitigate the negative impacts of travel. One of the ways we achieve this is through our partnership with Cooler, which makes guests’ travels 100% carbon neutral. By working with Cooler, we can footprint our carbon use and emissions for each of our tours and purchase carbon pollution contracts from tightly regulated pollution markets to neutralize our collective carbon footprint. This makes us “one of the few verifiable carbon-neutral travel companies”.
The Nomad Almanac also highlights our efforts to “bring money into the local economy” of every destination we visit. To do this, we carefully curate our itineraries to feature local businesses and family-owned and operated hotels and lodging. By doing so, we can directly support the communities we visit while also forging a closer connection and experience with the locals for our guests.
We are proud to be recognized as a leading sustainable and ethical travel company. In our efforts to commit to carbon-neutral travel across all of our adventures, support local and family-owned businesses, abide by an animal welfare policy, and operate through environmentally friendly practices, we hope to contribute to a more sustainable travel future that positively impacts the destinations and communities we visit.
