TourTheTropics was founded from a passion for tourism that benefits conservation, a love of biodiversity, and a desire to share the best tours on Earth for the tropical realm. The tropics contain the highest amount of life on Earth, but this is also the most threatened area from habitat loss and over-harvesting. The tropics will benefit the most from sustainable tourism.
What we do
Our tours are run by hand-picked tour operators across the tropical realm that provide security, comfort, and consistent guest satisfaction. We hand-pick tours that demonstrate a sustainable approach to tourism. We then provide you with a direct connection to the best tours on Earth for booking, payment, and confirmation that show off the tropics in all their glory.
You have direct contact to the people who run the tour e.g. from the tourism company who own and run the cruises, own and run the lodges, or who hire your guides. For community tourism that lacks a connection to the global market, you will have a connection to the local tour operator who works closely with these projects. They are generally the co-founders or co-managers of the project. We will introduce you to your sales representative after your inquiry. Go TourTheTropics.
About our founder
Ash has completed a BSc in Biology, a Master’s degree in Zoology, and has undertaken a research scholarship at a world-class university on animal behavior. He has published scientific research in the Australian Journal of Zoology and the Journal of Behavioral Ecology. His goal is to help a global society live in balance with the natural world.
From reading and first-hand experience, Ash believes that destroying the world’s biodiversity hotspots for wood or to make way for agriculture, instead of simply showing them off to tourists, is like destroying the goose that lays the golden egg. By making sure you get the best experience from the tropics, we help strengthen the voice for tropical conservation. And you help spread the wonder of the tropics to friends and family.
