A sustainable experience is anything that helps support the environment or the community. For example, you could spend your money on local businesses and suppliers, hold off on the single-use plastics, or do something that helps protect wildlife, like learning about conservation efforts in an animal sanctuary. It's real easy on a Costsaver tour, just choose a MAKE TRAVEL MATTER® Experience, which are all assessed to ensure that they leave the world in a better place.

We may be biased, but coach really is the most sustainable form of travel (outside of walking or cycling). It's got the lowest carbon footprint per passenger, especially our Euro 6 coaches which are the most efficient of their kind. Plus, you can really jazz them up with things like solar panels to make them even more sustainable. Yeah, we've done that too.

It's good to try and be sustainable in your everyday life, even when you're not travelling. You'll see that the small actions we take have ecological, social and economic consequences on the Earth. Being sustainable in everyday life is to be mindful of these consequences, and incorporate sustainability in everything you do.

1. We’ve created an internal Carbon Fund, pooling revenue from Costsaver and our sister brands to fund big, bold initiatives that will reduce our carbon footprint, and our journey towards net zero.
2. Set clear science-based targets that have been validated by the Science Based Targets initiative.
3. Partnered with Trees For Life, who work to rebuild the Scottish Highlands. We support their Wild Pine project, which is restoring Scotland's Caledonian Forest and its unique wildlife.
4. Joined forces with Project Vesta, who are working to harness the power of the ocean to remove a trillion tonnes of excess carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.
