In many low-income countries, tourism is an economic lifeline. Surprisingly, only a fraction of vacation spending benefits local communities. Our direct-to-local model ensures 87% of your trip dollars directly support the destination, empowering local communities for long-term prosperity.
Even as tourism generates jobs worldwide, concerns persist over fair pay, safety, and equal opportunities. We support women-owned businesses and projects that empower underrepresented groups. Our 'Alesia Charter' secures fair wages and safe working conditions for our guides and drivers.
In accordance with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, we take a strong stance against inequitable tourism that perpetuates poverty, such as visits to vulnerable communities or orphanages. We also actively oppose cultural exploitation, which can restrict local communities with antiquated definitions, often leading to cycles of poverty. Our commitment is to facilitate cultural exchanges with communities that have full autonomy over their identities and narratives, enabling them to share their stories in their unique and genuine voices.
