Sustainable travel

Responsibility in tourism

A tour operator bears responsibility for the conditions under which a trip takes place and for the impact of a trip. Precisely because tourism can have both positive and negative effects, it is important that tour operators always act responsibly.

Gentle tourism, fair travel, sustainable travel?

There are many terms for a change in awareness when traveling: Soft tourism, fair travel or sustainable travel. Sustainable travel encompasses not only ecological aspects of travel, but also economic and social ones. It is not just about ensuring that a trip is ecologically compatible. Rather, tourism as a whole should benefit the people in the host country. And it is important that the entire company offering these trips works responsibly.

Atmosfair - climate-conscious flying
atmosfair is a non-profit climate protection organization that actively protects the climate by balancing, avoiding and offsetting CO2 emissions. All our business trips are offset, and our customers have the option of voluntarily offsetting their flights.

CO2 offsetting is increasingly becoming the standard in the travel industry. The principle is simple: with a voluntary climate protection contribution, private individuals or companies can support atmosfair projects that save the amount of greenhouse gases they produce. atmosfair promotes renewable energies and energy efficiency projects in developing countries with your climate protection contribution.

The members of the forumandersreisen association have currently agreed that all offsetting payments will go towards a project to support Nepal: Reconstruction and long-term repair of the energy supply after the severe earthquake in 2015. Here we directly support the construction of energy-autonomous schools, hospitals and private households that function with renewable energies through solar panels and biogas plants.
