Financial Gain - There is great potential for financial gain by creating and selling quality ecotravel experiences that are both unusual and exciting. All you have to do is advertise a terrific environmentally friendly travel program to an audience who already supports your mission. For every traveler who takes a trip, whether traveling as an individual or as a member of a customized group trip, Manaca pays you a revenue share.

Stronger Relationships — You will strengthen the relationship between yourselves and your customers by having them travel on your own travel program. Manaca believes that travel is one of the highest forms of educationóproviding lessons in culture and conservation. Our trips inspire the traveler and build understanding across cultures.

Peace of Mind — By partnering with us you will be supporting conservation and community efforts around the globe. We ask all partners to sign our Responsible Tourism Pledge, which affirms a commitment to environmentally-responsible, low-impact tourism. Additionally, we have created the industry’s only Ecolodge Standard Assessment rating system, which we use to rate each lodge in 8 categories—from waste management to community involvement. We make sure to work with ground operators and ecolodges who support conservation efforts and participate in their communities.

And if all that is not enough, every time you book a flight with us, we donate a portion of our proceeds to Conservation International’s Carbon-offset Fund so that wherever you go, to Tahiti or Detroit, you can be sure that you are traveling “green.”

More and more of today’s travelers want to tread lightly when they travel, enjoying yet protecting the very wonders that attracted them. Research shows, 83% of US travelers are inclined to support green travel companies, and the ecotravel industry is growing by 20-30 percent a year. The basic purpose of our organization is to help people and organizations explore, enjoy and respect earth’s natural and cultural wonders, by providing responsible ecotravel experiences.
