Responsible Travel
Chasing ADVNTR is committed to providing insight and support to be responsible travellers. We believe that traveling is a priveledge and as travelers we must be environmentally conscious, protect local communities and culture, create authentic experiences, and maintain integrity.
For this reason, we work hard to ensure that the places we book support this commitment. Put simply, we don’t specialize in travel that is not responsible. This includes large cruise ships. We do book smaller cruise ships and boats that protect workers rights and the environment and we work hard to learn about the practices of the places, activities, and transportation we book.
