OUR STORY
Our Mission
Consciously introduce a list of unspoiled destinations that can be visited only through adventurous, authentic, and sustainable journeys in partnership with the local communities.
Our Purpose
We believe that it is only by venturing truly off the beaten path that you can discover worlds that exist only on the edge; places yet to be discovered, where rare encounters are commonplace, and where transformative experiences can be Found.
Our expeditions aim to challenge both body and mind, encouraging personal growth by overcoming the unique pressures that multi-day adventures often bring.
Lastly, we are committed to preserving the cultural and natural ecosystems of the destinations that we work with, ensuring they remain pristine and untouched as possible for future generations to come.
Our Founding Team
How it Began
Found Expeditions began a few years ago when two passionate entrepreneurs in the travel industry crossed paths at a Global Sustainable Travel Council training course. Bonding over their shared commitment to sustainable and authentic adventure travel, they quickly formed a friendship.
Months later, during a trek in the Karakoram mountains range, they envisioned a new approach to travel—one that challenged over-tourism, embraced authentic experiences, and fostered a deeper sense of purpose and personal achievement. This vision led to the creation of Found Expeditions, a sustainable adventure travel company dedicated to exploring lesser-known destinations around the world, supporting natural and cultural ecosystems, whilst leaving zero footprints.
Rejecting mainstream tourism, they sought areas with minimal traveller density, aiming to discover and promote hidden gems while respecting carrying capacities.
Their mission was soon embraced by two additional team members who shared the same passion and interest in positive impact and off-the-beaten-path experiences, and the founding team was complete.
United by their passion for transformative journeys the Found Expeditions team continues to push the boundaries and practices of sustainable adventure travel, encouraging a form of travel that more deeply involves participants in authentic experiences whilst leaving a positive impact on local communities and ecosystems.
