Continent Tours Sustainability Approach

Touching lives: Continent Tours operations are rooted in our ability to make a long-lasting impact on several local communities we work with. Our Operations are run and managed by experienced locals who are experts of their destinations. By giving our experienced personnel the necessary skills, training, exposure and work support, we find that they are better able to achieve their personal and career goals, contribute positively to the growth of their local communities, become financially independent to support their families as well as become good leaders changing the lives of others.

Smart Operations: COVID-19 taught us one thing – to remain digitally upgraded. We are committed to providing safe, innovative, reliable and environmentally responsible Travel packages for our customers, where our operations are more paperless from start to finish. We have changed from filling bulky tour reservations forms, Credit card authorization forms, Tour Vouchers and Tour Evaluation surveys to completing the various stages of our tour online.

Commitment to Responsible Travel: Continent Tours focuses on doing business in the most ethical and responsible manner possible. Our employees, customers and suppliers are constantly assured that we thrive to continually comply with the laws and regulations of the countries in which we operate, act as a responsible employer and manage our supply chain in ways that maintain our environmental stewardship.
