Good Travel
Good Travel was founded in January 2016 by Franziska Diallo and Judith Hehl in Berlin to address the growing demand for environmentally- and socially-responsible vacations, and to fill this gap in the market with a hand-picked selection of sustainable accommodation. Good Travel's unique selling proposition is that sustainability does not have to mean doing without and that style and enjoyment should not be neglected. With Good Travel, they want to raise awareness for sustainable tourism. They want to make sustainable destinations more attractive. The more people develop an awareness of sustainable practices in vacation accommodations and then demand them, the more willing the industry will be to implement sustainable practices. From old farms to cottages and design hotels to tiny houses, tree houses and yurts, Good Travel presents a colourful selection of sustainable vacation destinations in a variety of price segments. The journey already begins with the search - through pictures and descriptions that invite you to dream and plan. They see themselves as impulse givers: They inform and inspire both on the offer and demand side. They want to show the hosts that a sustainable positioning in the tourism industry brings a decisive competitive advantage. For them, sustainable travel is the new, contemporary travel. On their blog, which they completely redesigned this summer, they also write about general sustainability topics in addition to sustainable travel. Because for them, sustainability is a matter that affects all areas of life. They want to inspire you to make your everyday life more sustainable.
About Franziska Diallo
Franziska Diallo is the founder and commercial head of Good Travel. After five years at eBay, she worked as a freelance consultant for various Berlin start-ups until 2015. Surrounded by many inspiring ideas and concepts, Franziska also began to question the meaning of her own activity. As a passionate traveller, a vacation in Morocco then provided inspiration for the founding of Good Travel. There, the family stayed in a small family-run boutique hotel that prepared meals exclusively with ingredients from its own small fruit and vegetable plantation and supported various social projects in the village. Where can you find more of these special places? Diallo asked herself, thinking that these sustainable and inspiring places should have their own portal.
