Today's travellers are looking to explore the world while minimizing their environmental impact and we believe that every traveler can play a crucial role in protecting our planet.
In this dedicated category, we invite you to discover more sustainable ways to travel (carpooling, bicycle touring, walking, public transport...) as well as tips for adopting an eco-responsible approach during your travels (learn how to calculate your carbon footprint, labels to know, good gestures to adopt on vacation...) that will allow you to enjoy every destination while minimizing your impact on the environment.
Our "Sustainable Tourism" category will also feature green facilities, destinations and activities that promote respect for nature and itineraries designed to reduce your carbon footprint, while offering enriching experiences.
And why not start by exploring France, which, with its natural and cultural diversity, offers countless possibilities for a eco-conscious and therefore eco-responsible travel?
