WHO WE ARE: At Urban Adventures, ‘responsible tourism’ isn’t just a marketing catch phrase. It’s at the heart of everything we do, from how we design our tours, to who we employ, to where we grow our business.  We use locally owned infrastructure and businesses to make sure the money you spend on travel is injected back into the local economy. WHAT WE DO: We’re about stepping into the community, and understanding how we can better connect as travellers. Whether we’re exploring world famous sites or hidden gems, you’ll be tasting, touching and smelling the city. On our 1500+ tours in 150+ cities, you’ll hear tales straight from the people who live there. Our breadth of destinations also means we can act as a global DMC creating bespoke products for brands (like the New York Times), agents, and conference or meeting planners. CONNECT WITH US: All our product is proprietary to Urban Adventures and is available for resale via API feed. Get in touch if you’re interested in distributing the best products on the planet as an agent or affiliate. We create product by giving passionate, locals the opportunity to start and own their own Urban Adventures Tour business. We give you everything you need with no upfront costs and work with you to make your new business sustainable and profitable following our tried and true formula. You bring the passion for your city and the commitment and work ethic to follow the program. If you are thinking of starting a tour business - get in touch before starting the expensive work of building your own website and trying to get your ideas to the world. We've got all that figured out. We are particularly interested in hearing from change makers, Social Enterprises, Micro Finances, NGO's and non-profits who have inspirational stories to tell about their cities. We'd love to amplify those voices, create revenue streams, build a tight, simple and non-disruptive process around donor visits and thereby increase overall donation pools.
