About us

 

We are very passionate about Asia and our Tours reflect the love we have for Asia. We travel in small groups so we can take you off   the beaten track and share intimately the magic of Asia. 

Our story:

We are very aware of the devastating consequences of mass-tourism on ecology, local culture and mindset. For this reason we have researched and travelled throughout Asia for many years to find places and people that share our vision of responsible tourism. Our vision is to create a 'green and mindful' tourism in Asia that benefits the local people and nature. At your request, we are pleased to share information about local-community based projects that we support and our way of travelling; eco-friendly responsible travel.
