Planet
CARBON REDUCTIONOur Chilean guided sea kayak tour is built around sustainability and a deep respect for the natural world. By using human-powered kayaks and minimizing vehicle use, we ensure a low-impact way to explore the pristine coastal regions of Chile.
We use locally sourced food products and can always offer vegetarian and vegan options.
The hotel we work with in Puerto Varas has won prizes for its sustainability and for being carbon neutral. It supports and promotes these values throughout teh local area.
ENVIRONMENT AND WILDLIFE
We strictly follow Leave No Trace principles, carefully avoiding disturbances to wildlife and their habitats.
Our tours are designed to not only immerse participants in the stunning landscapes but also to educate and inspire. Our knowledgeable guides provide in-depth information about the unique wildlife and ecosystems in the area, highlighting their ecological significance and the critical need for conservation. Through this approach, we aim to foster a connection between participants and the natural environment, encouraging responsible behaviour and a commitment to preserving these fragile coastal ecosystems for future generations. This is more than a tour—it's an opportunity to explore responsibly and make a positive impact.
People
LOCAL ECONOMYOn our guided kayak trips in the Chilean lakes, we prioritize working with local staff and supporting nearby communities, ensuring that the economic benefits of our tours remain within the region. By collaborating with local guides, suppliers, and businesses, we help to sustain livelihoods and promote the long-term well-being of the area.
We visit small remote communities, contributing to the local economy and learning of the rich history and heritage of Chilean settlers and indigenous people.
EMPLOYMENT, INCLUSIVITY AND DIVERSITY
Our tours also offer participants the chance to connect with the rich history and cultural heritage of Chile's coastal communities. Through stories, traditions, and interactions with local people, we encourage travellers to appreciate and respect the unique identity of these communities. This approach fosters meaningful cultural exchange and contributes to preserving the heritage of the region while creating a positive impact for both visitors and locals.
We work with as many female guides as male on this tour, biking, kayak and high mountain guides. All the guides we work with are local too.
