Responsible travel

RESPONSIBLE TRAVEL

Responsible tourism has always been an integral part of our company ethos and our adventures are designed with the local people, culture and eco-system in mind. 

We believe that a successful trip not only delivers a unique and unsurpassable journey for our clients, but that it also benefits the peoples whose lands we are privileged to visit.

In order to facilitate an enduring support structure for the communities we visit, and to show a commitment to these values, in February 2005 Great Genghis set up a charitable foundation through which we can channel funds to local communities. In addition to organizing ethically sensitive tours, having our own charitable foundation allows us to raise money – through the cost of our tours, charity trips and fund raising events – which can then be used to fund various projects in education, sanitation, reforestations and a number of other important issues facing developing communities

 

“Nomads development Fund” NGO

Through this NGO we became a bridge not only between different cultures also between heart of local people and travelers. The “Nomads’ Development fund” is grateful to all partner organizations and individuals for their support and assistance.
