• Encourage the use of public transport for travel to or from our adventures by supplying detailed information on the services available.
• We operate small group adventures (maximum 10) which minimize the impact on the environment and other users
• We support local business by buying local and using locally owned accommodation and services.
• We encourage the use of Carbon Offsetting. Travel does have a hidden cost. Air Travel produces an inordinate amount of Carbon Dioxide emmisions which contribute to climate change.
