Planning a Trip? Check Out These Animal-Free Travel Companies
Whether planning a weekend city break or a month-long adventure, make your next holiday compassionate by choosing an animal-free travel company.
We’ve put together a list of travel companies that do not offer any tours, attractions, or activities where animals are used for displays, performances, or rides. Animals are their own persons, with their own families, friends, and needs – they are not tourism props for entertainment. Let’s celebrate this compassionate future of tourism!
British Airways Holidays
British Airways Holidays does not offer tours to facilities where wild animals are displayed for entertainment, including zoos and marine parks. Even better, they also don’t offer any direct-contact animal interactions or animal rides, meaning you can travel with a clear conscience.
easyJet holidays
easyJet holidays is bound to be popular amongst holidaymakers and animals owing to their compassionate stance on activities. The airline’s holiday booking company does not offer any animal excursions anywhere in the world, including zoos and marine parks, animal performances, animal rides, and sporting events involving animals. So, what are you waiting for? Book your flights and get packing!
Newmarket Holidays
Newmarket Holidays is one of the growing number of operators who reject cruel camel rides at the pyramids of Giza. The company’s Travel for Good policy states, “We don’t encourage or engage in any animal-related activities on any of our tours or any other unfair activity, which exploits animals.” You can enjoy your trip knowing you’re not supporting any cruel, exploitative activities involving animals.
Travel Counsellors
Travel Counsellors is passionate about helping people plan their perfect holiday – without promoting or supporting the exploitation of animals for entertainment. The company’s animal welfare policy states: “Travel Counsellors will not promote nor endorse any attractions that have animals in captivity, or where animals are kept for the sole purpose of entertainment.” Bon voyage!
Take Action for Animals
Never visit any attraction or go on any tour where animals are exploited for entertainment, and speak out by urging all travel companies you book with to drop exploitative animal activities.
TUI is the last major UK travel company to sell tickets to abusement parks like SeaWorld – urge them to end all endorsement of marine parks.
