GREEN GUIDELINES FOR EXPERIENCES

Sustainable travel means making smarter choices in all aspects of travel. It's about choosing the modes of travel that we want to be environmentally friendly, whether that's by offsetting CO2 emissions, reducing waste, staying in eco-friendly accommodation or shopping locally and supporting the community.

We also emphasize sustainability in our experiences, so we also urge you, dear visitors, to follow the following guidelines:

SEPARATE WASTE AND SAVE WATER

There are bins for proper separation of waste both at the destination and at each provider. We encourage the economical use of water, be it when washing hands, showering, etc.

USE REUSABLE THINGS

We encourage the economical use of water, be it when washing hands, showering, etc. However, since the water at the destination is potable, you can avoid buying bottled water.

REDUCE YOUR CARBON FOOTPRINT

We encourage green travel - you can get to the center of the destination by train or bus. After the destination, you can also reach popular sightseeing spots by bicycle.

BUY LOCAL

Buying local produce creates a positive effect both economically and environmentally. Because the shorter the distance the products travel, the smaller the carbon footprint. It also benefits local communities, especially in rural areas.

From each experience sold, we allocate 1 euro to encourage and cofinance providers of our tourist destination to be included in sustainable certification systems.
