The Travel Corporation and seven of its brands – Trafalgar, Contiki Holidays, Insight Vacations, Uniworld Boutique River Cruise Collection, Lion World Travel, African Travel and its not-for-profit TreadRight Foundation – are celebrating World Tourism Day by announcing a new global partnership with ME to WE with the introduction of immersive volunteer trips in three destinations: India, the Ecuadorian Amazon and Kenya.

In conjunction with the company’s seven brands’ guided vacations, luxury river cruises and safaris, guests can book ME to WE Immersive Volunteer Trip extensions on upcoming set departure dates or, as a requested custom trip in the three aforementioned destinations. As part of the culturally immersive experience, travellers will stay among local communities in comfortable lodges, fully owned and operated by ME to WE. All meals, ground transfers, transportation and local sightseeing excursions hosted by an expert facilitator are included.

“Through our not-for-profit TreadRight Foundation, we have been working to create a positive impact to promote sustainable tourism worldwide, with carefully selected partners and projects and some of the numerous local communities we visit,” said Brett Tollman, Chief Executive Officer of The Travel Corporation. “Many of our travellers are open to experiencing meaningful travel with unforgettable, moving experiences. We are therefore very excited to be supporting ME to WE’s outstanding immersive volunteer trips, which we will help promote with our 10,000 team members across the globe and with the involvement of our loyal travel partners globally.”

The ME to WE travel team will handle any volunteer trip extension inquiries and all custom ME to WE Immersive Volunteer Trip bookings. Travellers can view these Travel Corporation trips at:
