Our Travel Commitment

We know that travel is a big investment for you. Here, at Babcia and YiaYia, we respect that and always do our best to give you the experience that In addition to keeping your needs in mind, we also strive to invest in our destinations. We are committed to make travel choices that keep our tourism dollars in the hands of local communities. This means we often choose hotels and restaurants that are family run and operated. We recommend shops and boutiques that are not part of international chains and we hope that you are always on the lookout for items that reinvest in local craftspeople. We encourage every traveler to be conscious of their carbon footprint and assist in this by using public transport within our itineraries. We believe in foot power. It is also one of the many reasons we believe in our "feet on the ground" philosophy by not booking group air travel. We care about our use of plastic and single use products and encourage travel items that assist in that effort. We hope that our commitment inspires you to see that your travel investment can be a positive influence in the world of travel.
