Small footprint.<br />

Big commitment.<br />

Our Foundation. We’re founding partners<br />

of The Travel Corporation Conservation<br />

Foundation – a not for profit foundation.<br />

So far the Foundation has committed over US$2 million to help underprivileged<br />

communities & support sustainable tourism around the world.<br />

Since the Foundation commenced in 2008, it has;<br />

– Helped to protect over 3 million hectares of Atlantic Forest in Brazil<br />

– Supported indigenous sustainable tourism in The Kimberley, Australia<br />

– Supported the construction of 3 conservation wildlife research<br />

camps in Northern Botswana<br />

– Helped develop sustainable tourism practices as a primary<br />

sponsor for the Tourism for Tomorrow Awards<br />

We’re committed to helping preserve our<br />

natural environment for the future. Recently, we<br />

partnered with Tourism Cares (a not-for-profit<br />

organisation who arrange volunteer efforts to<br />

restore tourism-related sites) to assist with their<br />

Grand Canyon preservation project. As part<br />

of Grand Canyon Conservation Day, 20 of our<br />

team assisted in restoring native vegetation in a<br />

section of the National Park in an effort to help<br />

rejuvenate this amazing site (pictured right).<br />

Our coaches. We want you to see the<br />

world. But we also want to look after it.<br />

Compared to cars, planes & trains, coaches have the lowest<br />

carbon emissions. Coach is by far the most carbon<br />

efficient way to travel.<br />

Our modern, air-conditioned coaches are some of the best in<br />

North America. We make sure our coaches are fuel efficient & exceed<br />

strict emission regulations.<br />

If you want to reduce your carbon footprint even more, you’ll find links<br />

on our website to offset.<br />
