5 eco-friendly tour operators (for your future adventures).

Right now, the world isn't travelling, but when it starts to: it's time to go green! Here, we highlight just a few of the excellent tour operators making it their mission to travel responsibly...

As written in our special Travel Green issue of Wanderlust magazine, your choices about who you travel with are often as important as how you travel .

Do your research and pick ethical tour operators who are also working to protect the planet. You want to be travelling with companies who respect people and nature. Smaller tours have less impact on the environment - and consider using local tour companies, too.

Here are 5 eco-friendly tour companies to consider for your future travels...

1. steppes travel.

As well as ensuring they are carbon balanced, Steppes Travel run the Steppes Fund for Change.
