‘Responsible Tourism’ has become a much overused marketing catchphrase. However for tourism to truly be responsible, it takes an action-not-words policy by all those involved. 

At To Escape To, we believe in what we call ‘Responsive Tourism’. We strive to undertake sustainable practice in everything we do and believe that the little contributions lead to big changes. We try to encourage such responsibility in others by providing opportunities to get involved with the community or environment while also enhancing their own personal experiences. 

INDIVIDUALS MAKE IMPORTANT CONTRIBUTIONS

Starting at home, our staff lead by example with various fundraising and awareness-building activities. However, it is the concern and the will to get involved by those who travel with us that shows the potential for tourism to make a difference to the places we visit.

From a 30,000 km kayak trip down East Africa to painting a crèche in the South African Winelands, learn more about how individuals strive to make a difference: click here.

PROPERTIES THAT DESERVE A SPECIAL MENTION 

We fully assess our property portfolio from a community and environment perspective. All the properties we feature are fully committed to improving the environment and/or working with local communities.

To learn more about the projects, the properties we use and how you can get involved please ask our destinations specialist. 

FUTURE To Escape To ECO-WARRIORS

The priority for responsible tourism is sustainability and we all have a duty to ensure that fragile environments are preserved for future generations to enjoy.

So what better way to protect important natural and cultural wonders than to create an impression on today’s children? Many of our properties have worked hard to develop special children programmes that ensure these young warriors learn about the environment and will share their knowledge with future generations. Our specialist will point any young eco-warriors in the right direction and we would love to hear what they got up to while they are away and post their experiences on our website to encourage more eco-warriors to follow suit.

Send us your stories and the odd photo of your experiences and we will do what we can to include them on our website.
