In November 2025, our team joined a tree-planting day organised by the Municipality of Quito. Around 1,700 native trees were planted during that initiative. Participating allowed us to contribute directly to an urban reforestation effort and support the strengthening of green spaces in the city. For those who would like to see the area where the trees were planted, you can explore it here on Google Earth. As a company based in Ecuador, we believe it is important to take part in initiatives that support the long-term wellbeing of the destinations where we operate.

This same approach guides our collaboration with Indigenous communities, family-owned lodges, conservation initiatives and local producers throughout mainland Ecuador and the Galápagos Islands. These partnerships are structured to ensure tourism generates direct economic impact in destination while supporting environmental protection and local development. At the same time, we maintain the service standards and operational consistency expected across all travel segments.

With this framework in place, we developed a dedicated itinerary centred on sustainability, climate awareness and real-world environmental challenges. The journey includes visits to recycling and waste management initiatives in Quito, community-based cacao projects in the Amazon, discussions around the impact of unregulated mining, circular economy practices in Cuenca, renewable energy solutions in the Galápagos and landscape recovery initiatives in Santa Cruz. These visits are designed to provide insight into how environmental issues are addressed locally and how tourism can be connected to these efforts in a structured way.

The program was developed by the Geo team, who have extensive experience in integrating sustainability and environmental awareness into product design. Their ongoing collaboration with environmental and community initiatives allows us to translate these themes into well-structured travel experiences, supported by solid planning and operational consistency.
