Family adventures with a positive footprint

What are your family's values?

Chances are, they’re a lot like ours: Respect for others, an appreciation and curiosity about the many cultures that make up our world, a desire to do the right thing by the planet and safeguard wildlife habitats and biomes for your children’s children. And a desire to invest in vacations that deepen your learning while you explore, revel, and relax.

Our family trips are customized to the different tastes and interests that make up each family. We know some members of your family are more active than others, and that while some of you are out hiking for the day or building a stove for a local farming family, others may want to read a good book in a hammock on the beach.

No matter your proclivities, we’ll make sure that your trip is a Vacation not a Relocation. Accommodations, transfers, local flights, and most of your activities are all organized in advance. You don’t want to spend your time on the ground figuring all that out. Let our expert local guides do the heavy lifting.

Since 2005 we have designed trips that allow each family to see the world in a way that aligns with their travel style and ethics. Every trip supports local community and conservation initiatives. Our award-winning Buy A Trip Give A Trip program sponsors local youth to get to see the same sights you do. In short, we’ve got you covered.
