ekoVenture is a social marketplace and community for adventure, cultural, and sustainable travel. It offers access to more than 10,000 tour packages focusing on cultural travel, active travel, adventure travel, eco travel, voluntourism, culinary travel, and more.
Tour operators are vetted, and ekoVenture offers them a booking engine on the back-end much like OpenTable does for restaurants. Travelers can share reviews, blogs, photos, and videos. And the site highlights a network of Guru travelers made up of professional mountaineers, kayakers, divers, and adventurers.
The company donates 10% of its profits to eco-friendly charities such as those dedicated to providing clean drinking water in developing nations or preserving reefs and rainforests.
