Animal Welfare

As the UK’s no.1 specialist in travel to Latin America, we are committed to protecting the natural habitats and diverse wildlife of the continent we love. 

Our Animal Welfare Policy ensures all our services involving animal interaction follow best practice, and our activities don’t have a detrimental effect on wild, captive or working animals. We believe all animals should be healthy, comfortable, well-nourished, safe, able to express natural behaviour and protected from pain or distress. 

Our comprehensive animal welfare policy includes the following commitments:

  • We advocate for improved animal welfare standards and responsible tourism practices in any experiences involving animals.
  • We will never knowingly include or promote holiday activities that put people or animals at risk.
  • We seek to protect animals and plants that may be threatened by trade.
  • We encourage our staff, clients and partners to monitor animal welfare standards throughout our operations, and report concerns so we can take appropriate action.
  • We work with our partners locally to improve standards through raising awareness of animal welfare concerns.
