What's the B all about?
Much more than an award, Journey Mexico's B-Corp Certification recognizes its steadfast commitment to responsible and transparent business practices, prioritizing a positive impact on people and places as much as making a profit. The B stands for 'benefit for all,' and that's what the organization stands for too. Journey Mexico believes that Mexico's natural world and the communities they engage with should benefit from their operations, as well as their team, travelers, and partners.
How do they get certified?
B Lab, the non-profit organization behind the prestigious global movement, widely considered the gold standard for sustainability and positive impact, guides Journey Mexico through the rigorous certification process. The company has been dedicated to this process for the past 12 months, involving a thorough examination of their operations to measure their social and environmental impact. Journey Mexico is thrilled to join the global community of organizations working towards a shared goal.
Their B in action:
Journey Mexico takes pride in what they've achieved during 20 years of serving their guests and feels motivated by the challenge of the B-Corp Certification process. Embracing the ongoing challenge, they welcome the opportunity to dig into every aspect of their operations to identify areas where they can do more, be better, and make positive changes. The brilliant team at Journey Mexico has been busy working with partners to create more community-led travel experiences, engaging in local volunteering opportunities, establishing Journey Mexico's Sustainability Committee, and participating in sustainability workshops during their annual company retreat in Puebla.
What's next for Journey Mexico?
They feel privileged to contribute to social and environmental causes while still connecting their travelers with Mexico's breathtaking diversity of landscapes, the warmth and wisdom of its people, and the country's rich cultural heritage. This is just the beginning, and Journey Mexico is committed to continuing its education, learning from mistakes, making improvements, and striving to be the leader in positive impact travel in Mexico. For them, the sustainability journey is the destination.
Beyond expectations! Then again we weren't sure what to expect. Lovely stay at the lodge, met other like-minded travelers (many had their trips planned by Adventure Life) and the owner was a gracious hostess. It felt like you were one happy family, visiting with a favorite aunt.

Our advisor at Adventure Life, Mary Curry, was knowledgable and quick to respond with answers to any questions we had. She made our booking efficiently and set up a time for us to make a secure payment through her directly. We’ve used Adventure Life repeatedly and would definitely recommend it.
