Turning Travel into a Force for Good

At Where Sidewalks End, we believe travel should leave a lasting, positive impact, and is a force for good. Thatโ€™s why we created the TRiP Foundationโ€”a commitment to giving back. Every time you book a tour with us, we donate 2% of gross sales to a carefully vetted social or environmental project in the country you are visiting. You explore the world, and together, we make it better.

Why We Do This (And Why Itโ€™s Different)

Many travel companies ask guests to contribute to charitable causes post-booking. We believe that responsibility should be ours. Instead of putting it on you, we take action on your behalfโ€”ensuring that every trip booked with us actively supports communities and ecosystems. If you want to contribute more, thatโ€™s fantastic, but rest assured, youโ€™re already making a difference just by choosing WSE Travel.

How Your Travel Makes an Impact

What This Means for You

Booking a trip with WSE Travel means your adventure does more than create memoriesโ€”it actively supports the places you visit. From funding education initiatives and conservation efforts to helping local artisans thrive, youโ€™re contributing to a better world just by traveling. No extra effort, no extra costโ€”just real impact.

The Types of Projects We Support

We review and update our partnerships annually to ensure your contribution always goes to the most impactful causes.
