Exploring the World Together
Our Mission and Purpose
Create positive change through the joy of travel.
That’s our mission. It’s been on a journey, while staying true to itself – just like us.
Since inception, we’ve seen travel as a force for good.
We want to be the best travel company not just in the world, but FOR the world.
We do this in lots of different ways (check out our United Nations Sustainable Development Goals if you love details).
Here are just some of the headlines:
CLIMATE ACTION
Our purpose is to inspire, create, share and lead the best travel experiences ever – for both people and the planet. That’s why we’ve been pushing for carbon-neutrality since inception, carbon offsetting all our trips henceforth, and have a five-point commitment plan that supports our Climate Emergency declaration. We are also contributing towards limiting global warming to 1.5C in the next decade. We’re here to find solutions.
COMMUNITIES WE VISIT
Our purpose is totally tied to our product (that’s our trips). We’re all about sustainable, experience-rich travel. That means using our trips as a force for good, as well as good times. We’re genuinely connected to and invested in the places we go, the people we meet along the way, and the communities at the heart of every Avella experience. We think globally, act locally, and engage personally.
From Community-based tourism to new experiences that support communities around Uganda and the world, we’ve been retooling our itineraries to dial back the carbon and dial up the impact. With our legendary local team out front, we’re a global collective, local at heart. Get out there and see it.
That’s just a snapshot of the work we do beyond creating and leading the best travel experiences ever. From giving back to local communities to positively affecting the environment, we have a powerful impact on the planet and its people. Equality, animal welfare, child protection and more, we are dedicated to sustainability in all its forms.
We’re here – and here to do good – for both people and the planet. Find out more:
