At Scenic, we’re in the business of beautiful destinations. Right from our humble beginnings of hosting tours along Australia’s spectacular Great Ocean Road, enabling guests to enjoy stunning places in all their splendor is why we started doing what we do – and continue to do it today.
So it’s our priority to make sure the wonderful destinations we visit remain just that; wonderful. This appreciation of the world’s wonder is at the heart of our environmental and sustainability initiatives.
We know that just by visiting our destinations we have an impact on that environment. So we’re constantly looking for ways to minimize this impact locally, while doing what we can for the wider environmental challenges the world is facing, too.
Whether it’s on our fleet of ocean and river ships themselves, within the local communities we explore on our land tours, or across our ground operations in Scenic offices around the world, we’re committed to reducing our environmental footprint in any way we can.
We feel it is our duty to continually challenge ourselves, our suppliers and our guests to find new ways of becoming even more sustainable in our everyday lives.
