green travel

Low-carbon trip planning

Green travel refers to transportation choices that minimize environmental impact—taking trains instead of planes, cycling instead of driving, or choosing fuel-efficient vehicles.

The term extends to tourism that prioritizes sustainability: staying at eco-friendly hotels, supporting local economies, and reducing carbon footprints while exploring.

We opted for green travel on our European trip, going by rail whenever possible.
