2020 GeoEx Catalog

Giving Back The GeoEx Foundation, part of our larger Responsible Travel Program, is committed to providing direct monetary and in-kind support to a select group of care- fully vetted organizations that make a real difference in the destinations we have the privilege of visiting. Many of these organizations are dedicated to women’s issues, from health and education to economic empowerment. Others focus on wildlife conservation. We also collaborate with a wide array of groups and initiatives working to preserve the integrity of the places we visit. One example: many of our Patagonia travelers stay at the Valle Chacabuco eco-lodge, which benefits Conservación Patagónica, a group working to protect and restore wilderness areas. For more information about the organizations we support and about donating to the GeoEx Foundation, please visit GeoEx.com/Foundation The Adventure Collection GeoEx is proud to be a founding member of this exclusive alliance of America’s best and most imaginative active travel companies.
