Responsible Travel

As the pioneers of responsible tourism, we've screened this (and every) vacation so that you can travel knowing it will help support the places and people that you visit, and the planet. Read how below.

Planet

It is our policy to protect the fragile mountain environments in the areas we run courses. We carefully dispose of all waste. All non-organic waste is carried out and organic waste is buried at a suitable depth. Food is purchased locally and we use food products with minimum packaging, and encourage cooking with Andean products. We cook with gas and use recyclable glass as opposed to plastic wherever possible.

People

We are also supporting HuchuyYachaq, a Peruvian charity based on the outskirts of Cusco with a percentage of our profits. Every year we pay for a full time teacher at the school they run to enable the local children from impoverished backgrounds to attend school.

Local qualified mountaineering guides are used on our mountaineering courses. Support staff are hired from local communities are treated fairly and are paid a fair wage.
