MAKING TRAVEL
MATTER
Travel is a gift . It opens our eyes to unique cultures and the spellbinding beauty of the natural world . But with this gift comes a responsibility – to protect the world as we know it .
AAT Kings and Inspiring Journeys partner with The TreadRight Foundation , a not-for-profit organisation focused on promoting sustainable tourism . As a joint initiative between The Travel Corporation ’ s family of brands , the TreadRight mission is clear ; to have a positive impact on the people and communities we visit , to protect wildlife and marine life , and to care for the planet we call home .
When you vacation with AAT Kings and Inspiring Journeys , our pledge to Make Travel Matter is our commitment to protect the people and wildlife we interact with and the planet we share . Our itineraries include a range of experiences that are sustainable , culturally sensitive and help to fund local projects that benefit People , Planet and Wildlife .

Supporting Communities & Cultures
We are committed to encouraging the cultures , traditions and arts of the communities we visit to thrive . We do this through our support of Indigenous businesses , such as the Pudakul Aboriginal cultural experience on AAT Kings ’ NT Explorer , and community based tourism initiatives that build positive futures for community members and their families .
Sustainability & Conservation
Together with our partner One Tree Planted , we support bushfire recovery efforts in South Australia , New South Wales , Queensland and Victoria , following the devastating bushfires of 2019 . The goal is to plant 1 million trees by 2023-25 .
Protection & Awareness
In Australia we ’ ve partnered with the University of Tasmania in its Save the Tasmanian Devil Programme – the vaccine programme to reduce the threat of extinction of the Tasmanian devil due to Devil Facial Tumour Disease .
