Our travellers value their power as consumers to make informed and responsible decisions when travelling, and this consideration also extends to the animals impacted by tourism.
ToursByLocals has created its own Animal Welfare Policy in order to help our guides continue to provide unique, 5-Star tour experiences while also avoiding activities which encourage harmful behaviour to animals.
ToursByLocals requires guides to take special consideration when planning a tour which involves any kind of interaction with animals. This includes:
- Tours which include viewing or interacting with animals in the wild or in captivity
- Tours which include visits to animal habitats or any type of animal enclosure (such as zoos, aquariums, farms, sanctuaries)
- Tours which include transportation involving animals
