When you travel with Zig Zag Tours, you support the local community and contribute to creating positive change.

We collaborate with local sustainable businesses and employ local people. We advocate for rural tourism and alternative economies. We encourage walking, cycling and using public transport as the main ways to move around and explore the world, with a leisurely and conscious attitude.
