Sustainability

RESPECTING THE WORLD WE EXPLORE

Travelling “sustainably” is part of our DNA at Experience Travel Group (ETG). We built our company around a belief that exploring the world is a wonderful experience and that tourism can have a positive impact when we respect the world as we explore it. We firmly believe travelling in a way that preserves the natural environment, adheres to cultural customs and supports local communities is not just respectful but actually makes for a better travel experience.

The three pillars of sustainable travel – environment, society and economy – have always been at the heart of what we do, whether we are creating new excursions, providing pre-holiday info to our clients or finding ways to make it easier for you to tread with a lighter footprint.

As a result, it’s quite hard to condense ‘Sustainable Travel at ETG’ into one page! But here’s an introduction to what sustainability means to us.

Rescue & Rehabilitate

Volunteering for a Better Elephant World

We are working with our in-country partners to reduce and ultimately eliminate single-use plastic water bottles from our trips. Though we have great ambitions for this project, it’s a big challenge logistically – so our approach is ‘one bottle at a time.’

Our project’s aim is three-fold:

1. Offer all our clients an aluminium water bottle on arrival
2. Provide a sustainable drinking water refill system in our vehicles
3. Encourage our preferred hotels to provide water refill stations

We estimate that using one of these reusable bottles will save an average of 56 single-use plastic bottles per person per two-week trip. That’s a potential saving of over 90,000 bottles a year in the ETG community alone!
