Making Travel Matter®

As travel providers, we recognize our responsibility to create a positive impact on the planet we call home, the people we visit and the wildlife we encounter. The United Nations have set seventeen global goals to address our planet's most pressing sustainable development issues, and with these in mind, our work through TreadRight® - a not-for-profit foundation formed under The Travel Corporation (TTC), and through our sustainability strategy, 'How We Tread Right', we've committed to using the power of conscientious travel to MAKE TRAVEL MATTER® .

Picnic Lunch, Highland Safari

We all share a passion for our culture and the environment we're lucky to live in. We love sharing that with our guests, but as we do, we're mindful to have as little impact on 'the hill' as possible. Through the sunny blue-sky summers (yes, we do have them!) and the cold winters, we ensure our trails are maintained and that the native wildlife continues to thrive. As the old saying goes 'take nothing but photographs and leave nothing but footprints'.

Conscious Travel Experiences

MAKE TRAVEL MATTER® Experiences are chosen with great care based on the positive social or environmental impact each has on its community. At present, Brendan Vacations has qualified 35 MAKE TRAVEL MATTER® Experiences, offering one on at least 90% of our itineraries. What's more, these experiences operate year-round, ensuring sustainability and conservation is a continued effort and that all the incredible locals who make your Brendan story so magical, are able to be there for you no matter when you visit.
