ConservationVIP is an environmental nonprofit dedicated to helping sustain some of the world’s greatest landscapes, cultural heritage sites, and biodiversity. Our founders established the nonprofit to channel the enthusiasm of travelers into activities which benefit the places they want to visit. As a nonprofit 501(c)(3), we are driven by purpose, not profit, and we are accountable for our actions, so our trip participants can be assured that traveling with us is, indeed, sustainable travel. Our trips appeal to travelers who want immersive experiences and who appreciate the deeper connections and sense of satisfaction that comes from collaborating with local communities to conserve natural and cultural heritage treasures. Traveling with purpose, volunteering on a wide variety of projects, our trip participants enjoy activities unavailable to most travelers. With the help of loyal, repeat travelers, we expanded from our first trip in Patagonia to supporting ten extraordinary destinations including Machu Picchu and the Galapagos.
