Vacances Bleues is committed to sustainable holidays
At Vacances Bleues, we have chosen responsible, sustainable and solidarity-based tourism, and our commitments are consolidated year after year. Over time, we are building more and more partnerships and we are investing in the protection of the environment and in solidarity with the populations.
Promoting ecotourism
Ecotourism, or green tourism, is a broad concept that encompasses, behind the more ambitious projects, all the small gestures that each of us can make to make things happen. Starting with the way we travel. We encourage our holidaymakers to use soft mobility, to avoid flying and, as far as possible, driving. Hiking, cycling, canoeing... There are so many ways to discover your environment, especially during the holidays! There's no rush...
If you have no other solution than to take the plane, Vacances Bleues offsets your carbon footprint by financially supporting the association "Les amis de Rigoberta Menchu", whose mission is to plant trees in Guatemala.
Environmentally friendly accommodation
Our accommodation is as much as possible compatible with responsible tourism. We use reusable materials and prefer glass to plastic. In our residence in Château Laval, sheep from local farms tend to the lawn. Because every gesture counts.
Consuming locally to limit pollution
In all our restaurants, we favour short circuits. By doing so, we avoid pollution linked to transport, while helping to promote local producers. Sustainable holidays are also about protecting the living environment of those who welcome us to their beautiful regions.
Vacances Bleues and solidarity holidays
We have established a partnership with the Petits Frères des Pauvres, to enable isolated elderly people to go on holiday. With them, we also promote the integration of precarious workers by making our premises available for training.
