The idea: Regenerative Travel empowers tourism to foster social and environmental impact.
Details: Regenerative Travel—cofounded by Amanda Ho in 2019—enables travelers, industry professionals, and destinations to use tourism as a force for good by reversing negative impacts and focusing on regeneration. In May, the company launched its RegenerativeTravel+ subscription to help travelers carefully consider their mindset when embarking on a journey, from packing and planning to experiencing places more authentically. The membership, which costs $99 per year, provides guidance and educational content, including destination guides, tour operators, and activities committed to regenerative work, and offers hotel credits and exclusives with partners like Jamaica’s Rockhouse Hotel and Bhutan’s Gangtey Lodge. “We believe that being a regenerative traveler starts with your intention and how you choose to engage with the destination,” says Ho.
Why it matters: With these values in mind, Ho hopes to encourage the broader industry’s transition to more regenerative models.
