Chaaliya Tours is committed to promoting responsible and sustainable tourism across Sri Lanka. Our sustainability policy reflects our company structure and activities and is fully supported by top management. The policy aims to reduce negative social, cultural, economic, and environmental impacts of our services while ensuring the health, safety, and well-being of our employees.
Key Principles:
Environmental protection: Minimizing resource use, managing waste responsibly, and promoting biodiversity conservation during excursions, including visits to Yala, Minneriya, and Wilpattu National Parks.
Social and cultural responsibility: Respecting local communities, preserving cultural heritage, and supporting local livelihoods through experiences like home stays, traditional batik workshops, picnic , and Three Temple Loop trekking with locally prepared meals.
Economic sustainability: Collaborating with local suppliers, artisans, and communities to create economic benefits and encourage fair business practices.
Employee health & safety: Ensuring a safe, fair, and supportive workplace with clear policies on labor rights, training, and well-being.
Sustainable excursions: All activities are designed to minimize negative impacts on wildlife, ecosystems, and cultural sites, and follow relevant codes of conduct for animal welfare and conservation.
Monitoring and continuous improvement: We regularly assess our practices, engage with stakeholders, and implement initiatives to strengthen sustainability throughout our operations in Sri Lanka.
This policy is communicated to all staff, suppliers, and partners and serves as the foundation for all operations, decision-making, and partnerships at Chaaliya Tours.
