The World Legacy Awards honours the companies, organisations and destinations that are driving the positive transformation of the tourism industry, showcasing leaders and visionaries in sustainable tourism best practices, and sharing their stories with millions of today’s travellers. The World Legacy Awards align to Adventure World’s responsible travel philosophy and commitment to sustainable travel and tourism.

At Adventure World, we promote responsible travel to areas that conserve the natural environment and improve the well-being of the local indigenous people. We believe that responsible tourism promotes positive cultural and environmental ethics and practices. Understanding the potential harm that can come from promoting tourism through many of the delicate environments in which we operate is reflected on our ideology of 'leave no trace' tourism. Working with our local ground operators, several who have won the prestigious AITO (Association of Independent Tour Operators) Responsible Tourism Award, we aim to promote responsible, sustainable tourism in all areas we visit.
