Impact

Sustainability

At INTRO our commitment to a sustainable future is a key principle, and the driving force behind our Small Change initiative, which we launched in 2017.

As part of our goal to make a real positive impact to the environment, we partnered with Eden Reforestation Projects in 2019 to plant 10 trees for every booking we received. And as a result we’ve planted tens of thousands of trees, aided reforestation, rehabilitated wildlife and reduced poverty in multiple local communities.

However we wanted to go even further and achieve true sustainability, so in late 2023 we began a new partnership with Path Net Zero to accurately measure our tours emissions, and Veritree to plant trees to offset those emissions.

We are now very proud to say that every INTRO tour is 100% carbon neutral.

Phillipines Tour

Highly recommend this tour - the phillipines is such a beautiful place and the tour definitely showed off its highlights. Had such an amazing 13 days with a fab group and massive thanks to our team leader Sam who made sure we were all having a great time whilst taking any stress away from us by organising everything from day trips to transport.
One main highlight would be swimming with turtles in Moalboal during the sardine run, the boat trip in Coron (an extra price but 100% worth it for the incredible views and clear blue waters) and the 3 day boat expedition, staying in huts on remote islands of the Phillipines. Loved every second.

Phantastic Philippines

If you’re looking to get the most out of this beautiful country in a 2 week period then this is the trip for you. From beautiful beaches to wonderful waterfalls and some of the bluest, clearest waters you will ever see.

The tour is jam packed with amazing activities, my favourites of which are the sardine run and the 3 day boat trip. Spending the night on a small island in the middle of nowhere with no signal, some new best friends and the stars shining brighter than ever was an experience I’ll never forget.

Shout out to the group leaders who really go above and beyond to make this trip what it was.
