Philantourism Holidays

Who, What, Where?

Choosing where to go and what to do, and knowing who would most benefit from your tourism pound/dollar, can be tricky, but our expert consultants know their destinations inside and out, meaning that they can help you navigate this moral minefield and ensure that you're ticking off your holiday wish-list along the way.

Why?

Because some countries rely far more on tourism than others (tourism accounts for roughly 40% of GDP in the Maldives, for example), and it's a sad fact that many destinations are down on their luck. That could be due to natural disasters, terrorist attacks or now the devastating coronavirus pandemic. Obviously we would never recommend clients to travel anywhere that remains unsafe, but once you get the greenlight to revisit, we can explain how best to benefit the destination in question. On the subject of the coronavirus, the lack of tourists in certain destinations has meant that poaching and illegal logging and fishing is on the increase. Philantourism is the perfect antidote to this, and on a bigger scale travel can - and must be - a force for good.
