Doing our part to help protect the environment is important to us at Contiki. We want to make it easy for you to travel the world, see new things and have a great time along the way. It’s what we do best and we are proud to also play our part in protecting the planet for the future.

Contiki is a founding contributor to The Leading Travel Companies of the World Conservation Foundation. Since the Foundation launched in 2008, $2 million US has been granted towards projects all around the world that help protect the environment, give back to the local communities and/or support sustainable tourism – important stuff!

In our company offices worldwide, we are working towards reducing the impact of our everyday activities by monitoring and minimizing our waste, energy use and paper consumption. Contiki’s also giving back to the local communities in which we operate, with every staff member being given the opportunity to spend two working days a year volunteering for an approved charity of their choice, all on company time.

With Contiki, a big bonus is that traveling by coach is one of the most environmentally friendly ways to get around. To help further reduce the environmental impact of your trip, we’ve provided information about our relationships with recommended carbon neutral providers, giving you the option to offset your carbon emissions produced on your travels.

Responsible Travel in Asia & Contiki

Responsible travel is about bringing you closer to local cultures & environments and about involving & benefiting the local people in tourism. We encourage you to give a little bit back to the special places & people you’ll encounter by supporting community projects & NGO’s who care about conserving Asia’s natural & cultural heritage. We employ Local Guides on our Asian tours who will open your eyes to their cultures & ways of life while earning a much needed income. Read more about Responsible Travel in Asia & Contiki.
