Audley in Order

Shaun Embury — Thu, 07 Aug 2008 14:33:51 +0000

Traditions Worth Keeping

Shaun Embury — Thu, 07 Aug 2008 14:32:24 +0000

Southeast Asia is home to many minority groups and tribes, but visiting them can make westerners feel uncomfortable. The difference between the material wealth of the traveller and the poverty of the villagers is on stark display, and it can be difficult to come to terms with the disparity of living standards. The last thing you want is to feel like a voyeur, so we have found some ways for you to get involved with the local people, allowing you to feel more like a guest. Here some of our Southeast Asia specialists talk about their own experiences and how you can ensure that your visit gives something back to the areas that you spend time in.

Shaun Embury — Thu, 07 Aug 2008 14:28:24 +0000

Carbon Conscious Australia

Shaun Embury — Thu, 07 Aug 2008 14:09:22 +0000

Australia represents the very definition of long haul travel. The perception that such a trip generates a significant carbon footprint cannot be disputed but as a destination, Australia is environmentally forward thinking and offers a variety of sustainable travel experiences to satisfy the responsible traveller. The cost to the environment therefore can be limited through planning an itinerary that takes advantage of such experiences, ultimately proving that a trip to this part of the world can be considered at least as, if not more, culturally sensitive and environmentally sustainable as destinations much closer to home.

African Treasure

Shaun Embury — Thu, 07 Aug 2008 14:02:49 +0000

Shaun Embury — Thu, 07 Aug 2008 13:52:14 +0000

What is Responsible Travel?

Shaun Embury — Thu, 07 Aug 2008 09:51:56 +0000

Emma Skelton, our Responsible Travel Co-ordinator, attempts to pin down this term that, although now widely used in the travel industry, remains relatively undefined.

Responsible travel

Shaun Embury — Fri, 25 Apr 2008 09:35:04 +0000

Responsible travel is not only about minimising the environmental impact of travel, but also about improving the social and economic infrastructures of host destinations. Ultimately, we strive to ensure that a visit from Audley clients leaves a destination better rather than worse off. The nature of our ground operations lends itself to the ethos of responsible travel – we use, wherever possible, locally owned accommodation options, locally managed grounds agents and local guides and drivers. One of the vital parts of our country specialists’ research trips is to unearth new initiatives. Here are a few of our favourites.
