Over the past 8 years we have run over 65 Meet The People Tours for Traidcraft and have taken more than 500 people to visit Traidcraft's producers and see first-hand the benefits of fair trade.
Traidcraft has always impressed us with their alternative and developmental approach to doing business and we value the way that they manage some of the practical complexities of fair trade to ensure that they engage and work with people in a supportive way.
Traidcraft has been an inspiration for the way that we have developed our approach to running all of our holidays and we are thrilled to continue working with them to develop fair trade tours for the future.
As part of the holidays we hold reunions for all of our customers and these are always a highlight for us. The relationship that Traidcraft has with their partners always ensures a warm and friendly welcome for all of our groups and our customers always come back inspired; not only from seeing the benefits of fair trade but also from hearing how highly Traidcraft is valued by the groups that they work with.
