Could you spot hidden animal cruelty on holiday; do you know the best way to make a sustainable difference to child beggars in holiday destinations?
Any ideas on how to ensure overseas staff are being looked after and not exploited?
World Expeditions’ new Thoughtful Traveller Guide is designed to help cut through what can be confusing messages about ethical travel.
“The Thoughtful Traveller”, which is the newest edition of the company’s award-winning Responsible Travel Guidebook – which was first published in 2000 – provides a clear and concise explanation of how travellers can play their part in changing the world for the better.
World Expeditions partners with organizations including ReThink Orphanages, 10 Pieces, South Pole Group, Leave No Trace, World Animal Protection, International Institute of Peace through Tourism to develop its industry-leading responsible travel policies, which are outlined in the new Guide.
According to World Expeditions’ Responsible Travel Manager, Donna Lawrence, World Expeditions is striving to inspire people to become stewards for travelling sustainably and responsibly.
“Responsible Travel sits at the core of our ethos and we work hard to incorporate its principles in all aspects of operations,” she said.
“As well as collaborating with leading organizations in the Responsible Travel space, we believe we have a responsibility to educate our travellers and the wider travelling community about the concepts of Responsible Travel.”
The Guide helps answers the questions that the company’s survey found were most important to its travellers, agents and other industry partners including:
