To provide a relaxed and judgment-free environment for travellers who follow a plant-based lifestyle (and their family and friends) on accompanied, small-group tours to incredible destinations, while encouraging individual expression and freedom of opinion.
To offer a supportive atmosphere and an itinerary that offers a healthy balance of travel, exploration, and relaxation
To actively prioritize vegan-friendly accommodations and transportation options, and to choose the best available alternatives when necessary.
To include vegan-themed activities such as cooking classes and responsible activities such as visiting ethical animal rescue centres, even though our tours are not exclusively vegan-themed.

Our commitment to our partners and staff

Prioritizing smaller, local suppliers to help stimulate job growth and income for the local community.
Ensuring that fair fees and wages are paid to our local staff and partners, thus providing our customers with the opportunity to engage and interact with the local community, while also providing a fair and comfortable income and quality of life for our staff and their families.
We are committed to and passionate about creating a safe, stable and supportive environment for our partners and staff, where working hours are fair and flexible, where loyalty and performance are rewarded with the opportunity for advancement and where everybody has a valid opinion and is free to express those opinions without fear of reprisal or judgement.

Travel Responsibly

Every little bit helps

None of us are perfect and we all leave behind a footprint but if we all try to make every effort whenever we can, we can leave the places we visit with memories of us that match the memories we take of them and help ensure future travellers have the same opportunities that we have

Local Community

Respect the local people and environment and aim to create positive memories during your travels, both for yourself and for the communities you visit.

Public Transport

Choose public transport for a more sustainable travel experience. It's an easy and effective way to reduce our carbon footprint and help protect the environment.

No! Single use Plastics

Say no to single-use plastics and opt for sustainable alternatives like bamboo cutlery and refillable bottles to reduce our impact on the environment.

Support local Business

Choose small, locally-owned shops, restaurants, and hotels to support the local economy and community, while avoiding larger corporate chains.

Martin is an excellent guide. He is knowledgeable, organised, very personable and professional. He loves his job and he’s probably the best guide we have ever traveled with! He made our trip through 6 countries in Southeast Asia over 6 weeks into wonderful experience of a lifetime. Travelling with Martin as our tour guide made the trip extremely enjoyable. Obviously on a trip like this there were hiccups from to time to time and as there was a diverse group of people travelling from all over the world travelling together. Somehow Martin managed to lead us all through these amazing experiences seemingly effortlessly with good humour and great local knowledge! We still think of him as a friend.

We have done many great tours with different companies. This tour in Asia was one of my favorites, mostly because we had a great group and a lot of fun and out of the ordinary experienced with a great tour leader.

We toured Vietnam, Cambodia and Thailand with Martin . Martin was very professional and well organized so we could enjoy our travels stress free. But what stood out most in my mind (and the others too, I believe) is how much fun we had traveling with Martin. It seemed we were often doing out of the ordinary experiences under his leadership and local knowledge. My travels with Martin exceeded my expectations just about every day and as a whole. I would love to travel with Martin again.

I would like to share with you our experience with Martin as our tour guide on our 6-week tour of Southeast Asia. He was very good at what he did. He was professional and knew what and where to go making it a very relaxed tour for us because he took care of it all.

I would highly recommend him.

I was only on tour with Martin for a short time, but during that time he was great to travel with. His organisation skills were matched by his British sense of humour and his ability to empathise with everyone regardless of their nationality.

A great Tour Leader
