Operating Sustainably

Operating sustainably is crucial for long-term success and positive impact. By prioritizing environmental, social, and economic sustainability, we can reduce our carbon footprint, conserve natural resources, and support local communities. Sustainable practices foster innovation, improve efficiency, and align with environmentally-conscious guests. Moreover, they ensure compliance with regulations and mitigate risks associated with climate change. Ultimately, sustainability drives resilience, enabling us to thrive while contributing to a healthier planet.

History

Tauck has invested in more than 80 national parks, monuments and destinations the world over to better protect our planet – and preserve natural, historical and cultural destinations for generations to come. Destination grants include Mesa Verde, Grand Teton National Park Foundation, Civil War Trust, National Civil Rights Museum, Alaska Wildlife Conservation Center, Jasper National Park, and Friends of Notre Dame Cathedral (Paris), Grand Pré National Historic Site (Nova Scotia), and Wilderness Safari Camps (Africa).  
 
Going hand-in-hand with destination grants is our commitment to encourage and actively participate in volunteerism. Our commitment to destination preservation can be traced back to Arthur Tauck Jr's quiet donation to preserve the bell tower of the old North Church in Boston – a landmark visited by Tauck's very first guests in 1925 and countless thousands hence.   
 
These efforts include Tauck's on-tour national park guest volunteer program that won a "Preserve America" presidential award. Additionally, hundreds of Tauck employees have participated in annual volunteer days in places like Valley Forge, Harper's Ferry, The Home of Franklin D. Roosevelt, Ellis island, Gettysburg National Military Park and more.

Arthur Tauck paid for the entire restoration of Boston's Old North Church steeple – to say "thanks" for enabling decades of guests to visit."

US National Park preservation efforts were enhanced by Tauck's unique on-tour volunteer program where guests spent a few hours of their journey helping to preserve the parks – celebrating 15,000 Tauck Yellowstone volunteers by 2008.

At a White House ceremony, Tauck receives the "Preserve America Presidential Award" for our longstanding support of the national parks and our national park volunteer program.

Since 2006, the Tauck Foundation has partnered with a growing number of youth agencies to provide a unique summer travel program for low-income middle school students. The Sparks program integrates after-school or summer camp learning programs with 6-day travel experience
