The DNA of the birding trip
In this fifteenth year of our tourism activities, shaken by profound questions, we seek more than ever to adapt, to change our habits and to rethink our offer. A constant questioning of our profession is now inevitable. We have decided to become the actors of a more committed tourism, more human but especially more coherent. By integrating a new rhythm and by reducing our brand. Because it’s all about permanent impact. But it is not a matter of “rethinking tomorrow’s travel”, but rather of initiating, today, concrete actions to compensate for yesterday’s mistakes. Reconstitute the true DNA of travel. Longer, slower trips, but more intense and more united. An almost complete reduction in the use of internal flights. More authentic human encounters, a commitment to a real reduction of the carbon footprint, through efficient mechanisms, making us tend towards a more participative tourism. We must generate a benevolent relationship with all the actors and especially with the elements that are requested during a trip. More than ever, we ask ourselves the question: how can we best share our passion, without accentuating the effects, and invite you to continue traveling? This website should not be used as a product brochure, but as a bucket list of inspiration to build together more harmonious and responsible trips. Do not hesitate to take the time to read and re-read it and to submit your projects and your desires, we will have, more than ever, the time to answer your requests. Let’s not be in a hurry, nature knows how to show itself to those who know how to wait.
