Accreditation

 

Ethy badges We believe in being transparent about our progress or where we can do better, and avoid making empty claims. To this end, our sustainable practices are being verified by independent experts: Ethy.  A sustainability accreditation specialist that partners with Feefo, Ethy helps customers find responsible, ethical businesses. They test sustainability claims on an evidence-based system built on the UN Sustainable Development Goals. Each ‘ecolabel’ trust-mark represents an area where Ethy has reviewed evidence that specific sustainability criteria have been met for that particular theme.
Travelife is a leading international sustainability certification in the travel sector. The Travelife Partner award is a recognition of our commitment towards social and environmental sustainability. We comply with more than 100 criteria related to sustainability management, office operations, working with suppliers and customer communication. We are working towards further improvements, aiming to eventually reach the Travelife Certified stage. You can view our Travelife certificate here. Travelife logo
