 Meet the People at Holiday Wizard
Traidcraft, as the UKs leading fair trade organisation, has been organising tours for the past 20 years and has now teamed up with independent tour operator Saddle Skedaddle to provide these tours.
The key ingredients on any Traidcraft tour is to spend time with the Fairtrade producers and at development projects, tour places of historical and cultural siginficance, see beautiful countryside and wildlife, meet local people in their environment - all in a responsible way.
Traidcraft doesn't aim to change the world with these tours, but simply to offer a respectful way to facilitate the meeting of worlds. Truly a voyage you will never forget.
