Although it’s Black Friday, we won’t be slashing tour prices. Instead, we’re launching a small charity campaign. We pledge to donate 1% of each booking made between November 24th and December 22nd to WWF Finland, specifically for their climate actions.
Book your winter tour now and help make a difference!
Due to high demand we have opened a new departure date for the winter multiactivity holiday “Winter Fun in Finland”. The extra departure will be from 4th to 11th February and the tour is guaranteed to run.
At the moment the availability is limited on the following departures:
22nd Dec (2 cabins left)
25th Feb (one female place on twin sharing basis)
See the full itinerary here.
Our new website has just been launched. Pages are available in English, Finnish and German, however German and Finnish sites are not as complete as English, so have a look at the English site for all the itineraries.
Online booking is now available for all winter tours that have scheduled guaranteed departure dates. As a new feature you can now find client reviews on each product page.
This week we have received some very good news – we have reached Travelife Partner level!
The award recognizes our efforts regarding sustainability and Corporate Social Responsibility. To receive Travelife Partner level we had to comply with more than 100 criteria, related to office management, product range, international business partners and customer information
We are very happy with the achievement and full of enthusiasm to work towards further improvements!
About Travelife (www.travelife.org)
Travelife is a certification system, dedicated to achieving sustainable practices within the tourism industry. It provides companies with realistic sustainability goals, tools and solutions to implement positive change within their businesses and supply chains. Travelife is managed by ABTA – The Travel Association in the UK – and by ECEAT Projects – a not-for-profit organisation based in The Netherlands. Travelife has two key focuses:
Travelife for Tour operators and Travel agents: the scheme provides online training and practical tools for sustainability management and certification. The training and online tools are suitable for tour operators and travel agencies of any size and cover all management aspects of the travel company business including office operations, the supply chain, destinations and consumers. Upon submitting a report in compliance with the Travelife standard (based on an independent onsite audit), the company can obtain the “Travelife Certified†status.
The Travelife standard for Tour operators and Travel agencies is based upon the full Corporate Social Responsibility themes, including labour conditions, human rights, environment, biodiversity and fair business practices. The management requirements are compatible with EMAS and ISO 14001. The system is supported by more than 35 national travel associations to further its implementation among members.
We are pleased to announce to have been admitted into the EU-funded SUSTOUR project
that supports over 600 small and medium-sized tour operators and travel agents from 35 European countries in improving their sustainability performance.
Sustainability is a core value of the tourism experiences that we want to provide for our customers. Therefore, we are happy to participate in this one-year support programme running from mid 2022 to mid 2023 and we commit to using this opportunity and actively improving our sustainability management and performance.
