Vegan Tour Company VegVoyages Marks 15th Anniversary
GEORGETOWN, Texas, March 13, 2019, /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/ --

        -- Vegan travel may seem like a fad, but this vegan company has been 
leading tours now for 15 years. 

Vegan tour operator VegVoyages [https://vegvoyages.com ] today marked its 15 
years of business in the industry with the announcement that they're expanding 
their services to Sri Lanka and Nepal. The company is one of the first in the 
growing industry, and has expanded from 3 trip offerings in India to 23 
adventures across 7 countries. While it might seem that the firm caters to a 
niche group of people, the founders were pleasantly surprised to notice the 
uptake by non-vegans of their services, a testament to the quality they've 
committed themselves to providing.

"We focus on building bridges, not walls," explains VegVoyages Co-Founder Zac 
Lovas. "Our itineraries emphasis on connecting our travelers and the people of 
the country they're in, building more understanding of different cultures, 
traditions, cuisines, promoting the idea that we all share something in common."

Not only do VegVoyages customers travel without the worry of finding a decent 
meal that aligns with their ethics, they can also be assured that the tours 
won't involve any other forms of animal exploitation, such as elephant rides, 
zoos or circuses. VegVoyages also runs its own foundation, which currently 
supports 4 local village schools, 2 children's homes and 6 animal sanctuaries.

In addition to its ethical appeal, the global experience of the firm's founders 
may have also helped contribute to its success and growth. Many of its founders 
have worked and lived in Sri Lanka and Nepal, making the addition of these two 
countries obvious growth areas for the firm. Yet it is the quality of the 
service that VegVoyages provides that has contributed to its steady growth. In 
the words of one satisfied VegVoyager, "I resonate with your beliefs and what 
VegVoyages stands for. Our immersion was more than a holiday... We have come 
away far richer than we ever would have thought."

VegVoyages was founded in 2004 by a team of 3 people from the US, South and 
South East Asia. With a shared passion for veganism and traveling, they noticed 
a gap in the market for ethical vegan tourism. With a focus on offering a 
unique, exciting and 'off the beaten track' vegan adventure, it operates in 
various cities and remote villages in Indonesia, Sri Lanka, Nepal, Malaysia, 
India, Laos and Thailand. With a strong emphasis on responsible travel, it 
supports the communities it visits - such as supporting nonprofits, rural 
schools and local animal rights groups. Tours are sold on an inclusive, 'no 
hidden extras' basis and run throughout the year. You can book a VegVoyages 
tour online at vegvoyages.com.
