Sustainability
As a responsible travel company, Kallpa Tour is always thinking about the ecological and social impact that our activities have on the local communities. We strongly believe that the development of our industry must be achieved in harmony with well-being, social inclusion, conservation and defense of the environment as well as with the historical and cultural heritage of the region, promoting the integral development of the community.
We have embraced the responsibility of offering proactively this type of trips and we are happy to see that we are not alone on this journey.
We will add as many companies, partners and providers as possible to our cause and we believe that this will lead us to a greater demand for more sustainable accommodation and services.
We hope that our suggestions come on line with the new trends.
Our goal is to have happy travelers enjoying responsible travel experiences in Argentina with Kallpa.
Travelife Partner
Our company has achieved Travelife Partner recognition.
Travelife Partner is the entry recognition level within the international Travelife sustainability programme for tour operators and travel agents. This recognition confirms our commitment to further improving the sustainability of our business operations through a structured sustainability management system and the implementation of recognised sustainability practices.
Travelife Partner recognition is awarded following an independent assessment based on the Travelife Partner criteria. During this assessment, our sustainability policy, objectives, management system, implementation of key sustainability practices and supporting documentation are evaluated against 60 mandatory sustainability criteria.
To maintain this recognition, our company is independently reassessed every two years to verify that we continue to comply with the Travelife Partner criteria.
Travelife Partner also provides the basis for progressing to the highest recognition level: Travelife Certified. This recognition is awarded following a comprehensive independent on-site audit based on the Travelife Certified criteria. This standard comprises more than 200 mandatory sustainability criteria and verifies the implementation of sustainability management and sustainability practices throughout the entire organisation.
