Whether learning from local cultures, preserving nature, or minimising our ecological footprint, conscious travel involves making thoughtful choices for a sustainable tomorrow.
Responsible travel is not just a choice, it’s a movement. We provide high-value, low-impact travel options for environmentally conscious and thoughtful adventurers. We are dedicated to creating and offering Sri Lanka’s first scientifically backed low-emission travel guides. Join us in reshaping the way we discover the world.
Renew’s travel philosophy is unique and multi-dimensional. It goes beyond providing responsible, high-value travel experiences for our guests. Our steadfast focus is to enhance the quality of life for local communities and ecosystems through various aspects of travel.
In an era marked by eco-anxiety and climate uncertainty, Renew aims to be a beacon of hope that embodies humility, healing, and indigenous creativity. “The Renew Experience” will include natural, holistic encounters and activities inspired by regenerative travel concepts, along with philanthropic efforts that promote meaningful travel exchanges.
Renew’s conscientious travel guides are resources designed to inspire and inform travellers about making thoughtful and sustainable choices during their journeys. These stimulating travel guides advocate reducing environmental impact, supporting local communities, and preserving cultural heritage while ensuring every traveller encounters meaningful and enjoyable experiences.

Climate Friendly Travel Services has been working with Authenticities to develop a draft Climate Action Plan to support their sustainability strategy. This has involved a review of their work across their supply chain and operations to identify priority action areas. We have been very impressed by their Renew Manifesto and the level of detail that has gone into the environmental impact assessment of their business. This includes the creation of their own carbon accounting methodology using supplier data from accommodation, transport and food, to calculate the carbon emissions of their itineraries and rank them accordingly….
