Responsible Travel

Our Principles
We don’t only use small mini-coaches for your comfort.

They also take you further off the beaten track than larger coaches can. Which means our tours help the economies of the little out-of-reach villages and communities.

Using mini-coaches is also better for the environment than using your own car or a rental car. Just imagine 10–16 cars on a road instead of one mini-coach. Not only would renting your own car create more pollution, but some of the villages aren't set up to handle lots of traffic.

We also try to only reserve locally-owned accommodation and recommend shops with local owners. this means your money helps the people who have been there for generations instead of international owners who may have never been to the place.

Our Carbon Tax
Since 2008, we’ve already raised over £120,000

We use fuel to take you exploring. It’s an unavoidable issue until we find an alternative way to get you to the most beautiful places in the country.

But we do our best to rectify this by taxing ourselves £10 for every tonne of carbon we use. Our team vote on which community or environmental projects this money should go to every year, and we distribute the money according to where most of our passengers go.

Our Volunteer Days
Our team have built paths, cleaned beaches, taught classes, and much more.

We encourage each other to go and volunteer as much as possible - no matter how muddy, wet and windy it gets.

Not only is this good for the charities we help, it’s also good for us to learn about the work people do to keep our world beautiful.
