Whereas you can book standard travel packages at many travel companies in the Netherlands, at Footprint Travel create your own trip. No standard packages or pre-made itineraries. So traveling off the beaten path is motivated at Footprint Travel. How, you may wonder? This is done by the ability to add your own favorite places to your roundtrip. And in addition, as Footprint Nomads, we contribute inspiration for roundtrips through crazy Spain.
The revamped Footprint Travel
Perhaps hearing the name Footprint Travel rings a bell, because this travel company has been around for a while (since 2008). But did you know that they have undergone quite a transformation? Since partnering with Ricksja Travel, the focus has not only shifted even more to responsible travel, but also to creating your own customized trip.
Responsible travel is a key focus of Footprint Travel, but what exactly is meant by this? In putting together and organizing its trips, Footprint Travel strives to have the most positive impact possible on the destination. Think about the local communities, nature and culture.
To give a valuable example right away: Footprint Travel donates 2% of their total sales to local projects that align with their sustainable development goals (1. No poverty, 2. Living in water and 3. Living on land).
Footprint Travel's travel offerings
Footprint Travel's first destinations have recently been online, and believe us, the offerings do not disappoint. How about a trip to Jordan, South Africa or Spain? We are already eager to convert the itineraries to our own and discover these amazing destinations. The current travel offerings from Footprint Travel is very diverse. For example, you can also travel to the tropical destination of Costa Rica, as well as soak up culture in Morocco. One thing is for sure, Footprint Travel's offerings keep growing so be sure to keep an eye on the website!
Create your journey step by step
A unique pillar of Footprint Travel is that they give you as a traveler online the freedom and flexibility to put together your own round trip. You can do this using the so-called Footprint planner. The nice thing about this tool is that you can adjust a proposed trip until it is completely to your liking. From the departure date to the number of nights at a specific location to booking additional excursions. There are lots of possibilities!
How do you put together your own trip?
Discover your next travel destination entirely your own way. Need tips? Here's how to put together your own trip with the Footprint planner (explained step by step):
