Your journey creates real change. 100% of proceeds from ChildSafe Experiences go directly to child protection through The ChildSafe Movement. ChildSafe is ppowered by Friends-International, an award-winning NGO supporting child protection, education, family reintegration, and community-led solutions across Southeast Asia.

Travel responsibly

Choose Experiences that protect children and support communities. Our ethical alternatives to potentially harmful tourism activities—like school and orphanage visits—prioritize child protection and long-term impact. Each Experience helps fund child protection, education, provide vocational training, and strengthen local families. By traveling responsibly, you will become part of a global movement working to protect children’s rights and build stronger, more sustainable communities. 

Support local communities

Travel that really gives back. We partner with local communities and people, social enterprises, and ethical businesses to ensure tourism revenue stays where it matters most: in communities. Your visit helps fund education, support families, and creates long-term opportunities that keep children safe, out of institutions, and with their families. 

Authentic experiences

Connect deeply. Travel respectfully. Our Experiences go beyond sightseeing—offering hands-on, culturally rich activities that honor and uplift the communities you visit. Whether you're learning traditional crafts, cooking local dishes, or exploring neighborhoods off the beaten path, every Experience is designed to be ethical, respectful, and truly meaningful—for you, and for the people you meet.
