Welcome to EVA Travel

Welcome to EVA travel, a vibrant home for the young at heart who want to continue rewarding and adventurous travel in later years.   

As travel becomes increasingly disruptive to local ecosystems and populations, we want to redress that in a small way and make sure we leave a positive and sustainable legacy where we visit by ‘giving back’ to the community.   

We are a group mainly aimed at people over 50 who have the time to finally take that gap year or just enjoy a holiday with a difference. Every tour we offer has a volunteering element of 3 to 5 days and leaves the community we visit better off in a meaningful way.  

The range of activities is widely varied and can include tracking wild elephants in Namibia, helping to build homes in Cambodia, making food for sloth bears in India, building water filtration systems in Morocco, distributing books in Cape Town or any of the many other activities we can contribute to in many more countries.   

We work alongside the communities we visit and are guided by them. The key to sustainable travel is listening to the people on the ground and helping them with what they know they need, not what we think they need. It's a privilege to be able to use our personal skills and resources to make the world a little better every time we travel.   

Our small group tours range from 8 to 18 people, including solo travellers, groups of friends, partners and parents or grandparents with children over 18.   

EVA Travel doesn’t have all the solutions for overtourism in today’s world, but we aim to make all our tours fun, immersive and deeply satisfying for you while leaving a positive impact on the places and people we visit.
