Planet
As a local Argentina Travel Company, we hold a deep appreciation for the Earth's natural wonders and understand the importance of their preservation. However, we believe that sustainability alone is insufficient. Travel, in our view, is a potent instrument for creating a positive impact on the destinations we explore.CARBON REDUCTION
-Slow Travel Across the High Andes
The journey unfolds from Salta through Jujuy, San Pedro de Atacama, and Uyuni, favoring overland routes like the Paso de Jama and multi-night stays that invite deeper immersion.
-Nature-First Exploration
Experiences such as the Humahuaca Gorge tour, Moon Valley sunset, Tatio Geysers, and the Uyuni 4WD adventure prioritize landscapes over speed.
-Say Bosque Regeneration Commitment
Through Say Bosque initiative, each journey contributes directly to native forest restoration projects in Patagonia, embedding carbon reduction and regeneration into the cost of travel itself. In collaboration with ReforestArg, we plant ten trees for every traveler to contribute to the cherished landscapes we adore.
Twice a year, we journey to Cholila, Chubut – Argentine Patagonia – to plant these trees, playing our part in preserving native forests, bolstering the local community, and giving back to Mother Earth.
