The safety and well-being of our travellers is our top priority. We are committed to creating a safe and inclusive environment for all individuals to explore the world freely and without fear. Our Traveller Conduct Policy reflects this commitment:
Respecting people
Travellers are expected to respect others. This includes other travellers, G Adventures staff, third-party service providers, and the local people and cultures in the destinations they visit. We commit to making our tours a safe and inclusive place for people to express their authentic selves without judgment, free from any discriminatory language or harassment. While travelling with G Adventures, all travellers must treat each other with dignity and respect to create an environment that is positive, safe, and where everyone feels welcome.
Our Chief Experience Officers (CEOs) are dedicated to creating a welcoming environment where all travellers feel valued. As ambassadors of diversity and inclusivity, our CEOs lead by example embracing diversity, promoting respect, and fostering a sense of community among their travellers. Their job is to guide meaningful cultural exchange, address concerns promptly and professionally, and lead travellers on memorable journeys filled with adventure, discovery, and connections with people and places around the world. As part of their commitment, all CEOs receive LGBTQ+ inclusion training so every traveller feels respected and welcomed.
CASA G (Community Alliance Support at G) LGBTQ+ Employee Resource Group provides a safe and supportive space for employees who identify as LGBTQ+ to connect, share experiences, and access resources. This group fosters a sense of belonging and community, offering a platform for conversation, support, and personal growth. CASA G LGBTQ+ is committed to diversity, inclusivity, and equality, and plays an important role in promoting these values throughout G Adventures.
