Starting on Tuesday 08 June 2021, social enterprise travel company Charitable Travel launches a series of free virtual events to inform and inspire travel to the marvellous Mediterranean. The events aim to enthuse and reassure British holidaymakers to book travel to the Mediterranean for when travel allows, with the clear message that travel is a force for good.
Charitable Travel, the first of its kind social enterprise travel company, provides travellers with the unique opportunity to donate 5% of the cost of their holiday to a charity of their choice through a partnership with JustGiving, at no extra cost to themselves.
Taking place at 6:55pm every Tuesday throughout June on Zoom, experts from various Mediterranean destinations will share insider tips, ideal times to visit, and the best sights to see in their beautiful countries. Starting on June 8, Visit Malta and Visit Croatia will be on hand to share inspiration on trips to suit every style and budget, from family holidays, culture trips and luxury experiences, all of which can be booked through Charitable Travel - helping to 'give back better' when travelling.
Situated in the heart of the sparkling Mediterranean Sea and just a short three-hour flight away, the Maltese Islands are perfect for a beach holiday or city break. Natalie Swinburne, Trade Marketing Manager UK & Ireland, Malta Tourist Office commented “We are looking forward to reconnecting with holiday-makers at the Med Month virtual event – the winding honey-coloured streets, picturesque coves and tranquil waters have missed tourists over the last year and are ready to welcome visitors back from 1st June. It's wonderful that booking a holiday can in turn support a variety of charities and we champion Charitable Travel for enabling this innovation.”
From hopping from one pristine island to another, exploring ancient sites, trying the best local food and drink, or practising some sport, Croatia has plenty to offer both in the summer months and throughout the rest of the year. Darija Reic, Director, Croatian National Tourist Office said “We are delighted to be part of Charitable Travel's Mediterranean Month. We look forward to sharing the best tips on Croatia and telling more about all we do to keep our destinations safe. With further improvement of the epidemiological situation, prioritisation of vaccination of tourism workers and a series of safety measures in place, Croatia is excited to welcome Brits back, as soon as you are ready.”
