Responsible Travel
We are committed to responsible and sustainable travel
that safeguards the environment and benefits our host communities.
Our ESTEEM Principles
Asian Trails aims to deliver superior travel services that maximise the positive impacts of tourism while minimising negative impacts. We do this by putting into practice our six ESTEEM principles. These values provide us with a clear framework to holistically incorporate more sustainable travel into our tours and excursions.

Sustainable
Trails
Our most sustainable tours and excursions reflect our ESTEEM principles wherever possible. We work closely as a team and with our supply chain partners to incorporate sustainable travel initiatives across all of our products and services.
Making responsible travel mainstream
We believe that sustainable travel should be the norm, not the exception. To turn this vision into reality, we continue to evaluate all of our products and services to help our clients and travellers make more informed decisions about their travel impact. We have put sustainable travel at the forefront of our business and continue to showcase the most cost-effective and experience-enhancing ways for travellers to explore our destinations sustainably.
Our team
Sustainability is something we embrace as part of our company’s culture. Every Asian Trails team member in every Asian Trails office plays a role in making travel more sustainable. Our efforts are led by our Group Sustainability Manager and our Sustainability Coordinators in each of our destination countries.
Reports
& policies
Our annual sustainability reports and policies outline how we promote sustainability within our team, throughout the supply chain and to our clients. They also showcase some best practice sustainable travel examples that we hope will become more mainstream.
