A better kind of travel
At Rough Guides we are passionately committed to travel. We believe it helps us under-
stand the world we live in and the people we share it with. But the scale of modern tour-
ism has also damaged some places irreparably, and climate change is accelerated by
most forms of transport, especially flying. Rough Guides' flights are carbon-offset, and
every year we donate money to a variety of environmental charities.
