Explore Florida & the Caribbean with our new ‘Travel More Sustainably Holidays’

At Charitable Travel we’re committed to helping you explore the world while helping to protect the planet, local communities, ecosystems and the environment at large. That’s why we’ve launched our new ‘Travel More Sustainably Holidays’ to Florida & the Caribbean!

The new Sustainable Holidays range marks an evolution in the traditional package holiday. Combining a hand-picked selection of accommodations making a concerted effort to improve their environmental and social impact; activities and experiences which benefit the local community and conservation projects, as well as advice on how to travel with the lowest footprint. Making more sustainable travel an option to some of the most popular destinations – with clear, unambiguous, and easy-to-understand presentation to help you make informed choices.

Recognising the environmental impact of air travel and that the aviation industry still has a long way to go, Charitable Travel is still passionate that travel and tourism can be a force for good and, as recognised by the United Nations, sustainability goes beyond environmental protection and must also factor social equity and economic viability. According to the WTTC Report in May 2023 travel and tourism contributes 8.1% of global greenhouse gas emissions (with 13.8% of this related to international aviation). The industry also generates 10% of global GDP, employing one in 10 people around the world, providing essential support for local communities as well as the connecting of people, broadening of minds and restorative properties which only travel brings.

The new Travel More Sustainably Holidays allows you to visit popular destinations, which you may not have previously considered as responsible travel destinations, prepared with all the information you need to reduce your environmental impact. From how to fly more fairly, how to get around considerately, how to stay responsibly and how to experience ethically.

"Our new Travel More Sustainably range to Florida and the Caribbean, demonstrates how it is possible to make sustainable choices in travel in a wide variety of popular destinations. Aligning with UN Tourism's (formerly the UNWTO's) definition, it's paramount for us to ensure that tourism meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. Some would say flying across the Atlantic itself is not sustainable but, if choosing to travel, our focus is about making the best decisions with the choices that are open to the customer. Both these regions have unique ecosystems, and as travellers, it's our responsibility to tread lightly and ensure they thrive for years to come. By hand-picking accommodation, choosing specific travel options and tailoring experiences to be locally owned and operated, holidays can have a positive impact on the destination’s economy and the local people.”
