Who you support

When you join a travel2change.org activity and book now, you share your support for community and indigenous-minded organizations, businesses and activities. Help us lead regenerative destination management movement that will help keep Hawaii beautiful and restore balance to the pae ‘āina (the Hawaiian archipelago).

See sights that few get invited to see. Family-friendly fun and wellness experiences of a lifetime await as your local host guides authentic Hawaii experiences that help preserve Native Hawaiian culture, environmental and local restoration while cultivating true connection to the land itself.

Authentic experiences, tasting Hawaii, human and natural connection helps to promote better travel behavior, environmental and cultural etiquette for all our guests. To make activities more accessible many are free or discounted. Making Hawaii’s environment healthier and supporting local is what drives our regenerative economy.

Did we also mention fun? We believe that sharing aloha can start with being or service and offering a hand for Hawaii at unique locations with local hosts. Learn and do something new! Whatever you’re looking for in an activity, they are easy to find on our website, travel2change.org

We look forward to sharing lifelong memories and making new friends to keep in touch next time you visit, Perhaps you may even take some of the malama spirit home with you too, to wherever your travels take you. Each choice, each activity together, makes a travel2change impact toward a more thriving regenerative Hawaii.
