The Tipple Tours Guide to Saving the Planet

(One Sip at a Time)

At Tipple Tours, we believe travel should be fun and unforgettable - but also not destroy the planet, communities or your conscience along the way. We’re basically what happens when responsible tourism and booze fall in love.


Here’s how we save the world (while sipping our way through it):


Protecting the Environment (Tree-Huggers With Wine Glasses)

We love nature. Without sunshine, rain and bees doing their sexy little waggle dance, there’d be no grapes. Without grapes? No wine. And without wine? Society collapses.

That’s why we’re eco-friendly AF:

  • We hug trees. It’s our thing. Sometimes we whisper, ‘one day, you’ll be a barrel…but I’ll still love you.’”
  • We avoid plastic. Except maybe those giant inflatable flamingos at pool parties - but never straws.
  • We recycle. Bottles, cans and occasionally old jokes.
  • Our buses are fuel-efficient and if they’re not, we offset by hugging extra trees.
  • We don’t litter, we don’t waste and we never leave behind anything but empty bottles and questionable dance moves.


Supporting Local Communities (a.k.a. Drinking With Purpose)

Every sip on a Tipple Tour is basically philanthropy.

  • That €1 pint? Community development.
  • That vineyard tasting? Agricultural support.
  • That homemade schnapps poured by a grandma from an unlabelled bottle? Nobel Peace Prize stuff.


We partner with family-run wineries, small breweries and secret taverns where the WiFi is terrible but the stories are excellent. So when you raise a glass on tour, you’re raising entire communities too. You = legend.


Cultural Exchange & Education (Brain Cells Well Spent)

Yes, Tipple Tours is educational. Don’t laugh - we mean it.

  • You’ll learn how wine is made, beer is brewed and tequila is basically cactus magic.
  • You’ll master “cheers” in six languages, though you’ll pronounce them all wrong.
  • You’ll absorb history straight from locals, bartenders and vineyard dogs who’ve seen it all.


We call it “liquid learning”. Smarter by the sip, wiser by the glass and funnier by the bottle.


Animal Welfare & Conservation (No Drunk Donkeys Allowed)

We love animals more than we love free refills. That’s why we don’t do dodgy animal tourism.

  • No elephant rides. If you want a ride, book an Uber.
  • No tiger selfies. If a tiger wants a selfie, trust us, it’ll take one.
  • No drunk donkeys. Unless they stole your beer. Then it’s fair game.
  • No monkeys in sunglasses (unless the monkey chooses the sunglasses).
  • We support sanctuaries, not circuses—unless the circus serves wine.


Instead, we support ethical sanctuaries, conservation projects and stray vineyard dogs who keep us humble. Wine just tastes better when you know the planet’s other residents are thriving.


In Short…

Tipple Tours is travel with a toast: part culture, part chaos, part conservation. We’re here to connect people, celebrate communities, hug trees, save animals and drink just enough to make karaoke seem like a good idea.


We are Tipple Tours: Saving the World, One Sip at a Time. Woohoo!

Leave No Wine Behind: Drink every last drop (responsibly, of course), recycle the bottles like a hero and make sure the only thing left behind is laughter echoing in the vineyard.

Walk Between Bars:  Save the planet and your taxi money by walking from one bar to the next. Bonus: stumbling is surprisingly eco-friendly and practically carbon neutral.

Recycle Like a Pro: Toss bottles, cans and corks into the recycling like an Olympic sport. If only dignity were recyclable, we’d be truly sustainable.



Souvenirs Done Right: Take selfies, not pint glasses. Memories pack better than bar stools and photos don’t leak in your suitcase (unlike that bottle you swore was sealed).

Laugh Loud, Leave Light: Bring the party, not the plastic. Responsible travel means raising glasses, not raising eyebrows when your trash blows down the street. Spread cheers, not clutter. 

Hydrate Responsibly: For every glass of wine, grab a glass of water. For every pint of beer, snack on some bread. It’s called balance and it works better than yoga.

Snack Local: Support the farmers, bakers, cheesemakers and tapas-makers who keep us alive between tastings. Snacks aren’t side dishes — they’re cultural education disguised as hangover prevention.

Respect Local Customs: When locals raise a glass, raise yours. When they sing, sing louder. When they dance, join in — badly, but with enthusiasm. It’s about respect, not rhythm.

Travel Light, Drink Heavy:  Pack fewer clothes to ensure more space for wine bottles. Future You will thank Present You when unpacking involves uncorking instead of laundry.

Clink with Care: Eye contact, steady hand, big smile. A proper toast is sustainable friendship-making — and prevents spilled drinks, which is the ultimate crime against nature.
