|
| OUR BELIEFS |
|
|
As Goway Travel, through ADVENTURESIncorporated A.I.), begins its journey into the world of
adventure; or as those that have been with the Goway family for a time will realize, return
to the world of adventure, we are in a wonderful position of becoming involved in long term initiatives
and starting on the right “green” foot!
|
|
|
Any travel company and any traveler in this day and age must be aware of their surrounding
s and the impact they as an individual or company will have on those surroundings.
|
|
|
Any form of travel, from the softest to the hardest adventure travel has a direct or indirect
impact. It is our intention at AI to ensure this impact is as small and or as positive as
can be.
|
|
|
We believe ourselves as a company, to be socially aware and in turn responsible in our choice
of actions and practices both in and out of the office. By A.I. following our self imposed
standards and following those prescribed by third party organizations we are continually
striving to better ourselves and our practices but we are always open to and welcome constructive
suggestions and comments.
|
|
|
All our chosen local operators are exactly that – local. This ensures that money
is flowing directly back into the local economies where we operate and this in turn directly supports
local communities.
|
|
|
Our hotels are all locally owned and run, our chosen charities and their projects are run
from the country in which the operate. Our guides are all local guides and are fully trained and
educated in the respective areas in which they work. Fully certified guides for the rivers
we raft, fully certified Naturalist Guide III for the Galapagos Islands etc and all are bilingual
if not trilingual.
|
|
|
While donations and charitable work on a 2 week trip can be nothing but beneficial it is in
the interests of local communities, charities and foundations that long term goals and plans
are put in place. As such we have been offered the opportunity to work with and assist the
following organizations in their attempts to assist in the betterment and eventual self sustainability
of the local communities and charities with whom they work.
