Why choose local companies?

Travel Value:

• There´s no rush to get everything fitted in, you can create your own itinerary
• Small groups equals more opportunities and flexibility
• Local guides know the culture and customs of the area
• The locals always know the best places to eat!

Doing good:

• When choosing local providers, you benefit the local economy
• Nanook cooperates exclusively with responsible providers 
• Small companies struggle to be visible among the big, international tour operators
• International operators often exploit locals, and bring most of the money you pay, to their head quarters 
• Big groups and mass tourism do more harm than good and takes the charm away from the experience
