Responsible, regenerative and eco-tourism initiatives to experience this season
Take a luxe wildlife adventure
A long-time leader in sustainable travel, Abercrombie & Kent has unveiled its latest expedition, ‘Wildlife Adventure by Land & Sea: Around the World in Private Jet,’ scheduled from 19 May to 11 June, 2025.
The extraordinary journey has been crafted with ethical animal experiences in mind, giving guests the chance to become hands on in protecting some of the planets most fascinating fauna.
Highlights include diving and snorkelling the waters of Palau, learning about conservation at a sanctuary in Indonesia home to the endangered Sumatran rhino, venturing deep into Brazil’s Pantanai, the world’s largest tropical wetland, in search of elusive jaguars, and visiting the Sloth Sanctuary in Panama’s Gamboa National Park to learn about the research they’re doing to boost numbers of this cute critter.
Many of the experiences are normally closed to the public, giving you exclusive access thanks to A&K’s little black book of connections.
Hike in Japan
Hiking is not only one of most sustainable ways of seeing the world, but it’s also one of the most pleasurable, particularly when you’re getting back to nature in a country like Japan. The freshly minted (and fully guided) ‘Kyoto: Mountains to the Sea’ eight-day itinerary by Walk Japan takes you around the city’s bucolic countryside, following ancient trails that weave their way through valleys and over high passes until culminating on the rugged Sea of Japan coast at Amanohashidate, rightly considered one of Japan’s three classic vistas. En route, it passes through little-known villages and aside historic temples and shrines, some grand and some rustic. Accommodation each night is in Japanese inns, where soul-reviving meals make the most of local produce like Kyoyasai heirloom vegetables, Miyama ayu sweetfish, Tanba buri yellowtail and saba mackerel.
Follow in a zoologist’s footsteps
G Adventures, a pioneer of community tourism, has five wildlife-focused trips to its ‘Jane Goodall Collection’ in celebration of Dr. Jane Goodall’s 90th birthday.
The collection, which is endorsed by Dr. Goodall herself, aims to promote responsible wildlife tourism and support conservation efforts across the globe.
The update will see travellers embark on life-changing adventures to Tanzania, the Amazon, Galápagos Islands, Costa Rica and the USA, including a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to observe chimpanzees in the wild in Gombe Stream National Park, the place Dr. Goodall began her trailblazing research in 1960 at the age of 26.
The new additions build upon the success of the existing ‘Jane Goodall Collection’, which launched in 2016 and has empowered nearly 30,000 travellers to make a positive impact on the planet, just by having the time of their lives.
Be a marine biologist for a day
The Great Barrier Reef is one of the world’s most biodiverse ecosystems – it’s also one of the most fragile. Now you can play a part in its protection thanks to daily citizen science tours with eco-operator, Passions of Paradise. For certified divers, the ‘Marine Biologist for a Day’ trips from Cairns in Tropical North Queensland see you monitoring coral planting undertaken through the Coral Nurture Program with the Passions crew, who have planted more than 9,000 corals on Hastings Reef. Participants will also complete Eye on the Reef sightings and Rapid Monitoring Reports, which are logged with the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park Authority to assist in their management of the reef. Snorkellers are not forgotten, and can participate in a similar program with researchers and biologists.

Raise your awareness on board
We’ve all seen those bulging buffets on cruise ships – and the staggering amount of waste that often comes with them. Hurtigruten is on a mission to drastically reduce and recycle edible food waste from its fleet of ships via a number of innovative methods, including a specially designed reactor at one of its ports now converts food waste into compost used to grow vegetables for Hurtigruten.
As part of the initiative, Hurtigruten is committed to fostering awareness and education among guests and crew members about the importance of reducing edible food waste and embracing sustainable practices.
Engaging presentations, workshops, and interactive experiences will be integrated into the onboard programming to inspire positive change and empower individuals to make environmentally conscious choices.
The ultimate goal is to hit a target of zero food waste, and the company is well on its way there: edible food waste has dropped from 261 grams per customer in 2019 to just 66 grams per guest in 2023.

Visit a Dark Sky Sanctuary
A one-million hectare area of southeastern Oregon in the US has been certified as an International Dark Sky Sanctuary by DarkSky International, making it the world’s largest Dark Sky Sanctuary to date.
Located within an area commonly referred to as the Oregon Outback, the reserve has committed to protect its starry night skies for the benefit of residents, visitors and wildlife.
The area is located within the largest, contiguous, pristine dark sky zone in the Lower 48 US states, and this certification helps to protect a large portion of the designated zone. The sanctuary is very remote and sparsely populated, providing stargazing opportunities and other adventures for budding astro-tourists.
