Travel with meaning. As we explore the world, it changes us for the better. Connecting with cultures, immersing yourself in traditions and respecting different ways of life is the best education. Having fun matters, and so does protecting the people, the places and wildlife we’re lucky enough to cross paths with.
Every adventure counts. From volunteering abroad to supporting local businesses and small acts of kindness, it’s all worth something. We’ve seen firsthand how travellers like you can make a genuine difference. Discover our Positive Impact projects below.
Location - Malé, Maldives
99% of the Maldives is made up of water, and only 1% land. Therefore, pollution to the ocean has a drastic impact of the country. Over 280,000 plastic bottles are discarded in the capital every day, and with limited infratructure to allow for proper recyling, plastic waste continues to build up on land and in the ocean.
Our local team partnered up with a company called Voyages, to ensure that all travellers who visit The Maldives on a tour take part in plastic-picks ups, with a mission of reducing plastic waste from polluting the ocean. The plastic that is collected by travellers is sent to be upcycled in countries who have the infrastructure to do so. Whilst taking part in plastic pick-ups, travellers are able to learn more about environmental projects happening in The Maldives, and also learn to become more responsible travellers.
