OUR SUSTAINABILITY PROMISE

By choosing to travel with Golden Eagle Luxury Trains, you are already playing a crucial role in our mission to make a positive impact both onboard and onshore.

At Golden Eagle Luxury Trains, we believe that luxury travel should not come at the expense of the environment. That’s why we have always been committed to a comprehensive sustainability policy to ensure that our journeys leave a positive impact on the world we explore.

Read on to explore the specific practices we follow to ensure a sustainable travel experience.

WATER CONSERVATION

To minimise water usage, our taps and showers are equipped with timers, reducing waste while ensuring your comfort. Every drop counts, and these measures help us significantly lower our water consumption.

SUSTAINABLE AMENITIES

Enjoy luxurious bath products in refillable containers, including shampoo, shower gel, body lotion, and hand soap.

SUSTAINABLE ALTERNATIVES

We do not use single-use plastic straws or disposable plastic cups on board – opting to use paper straws and elegant reusable glassware. Supporting our commitment to reducing waste and the global drive to eliminate all single-use products.

GOING DIGITAL

To reduce paper waste, we’ve shifted to digital solutions. Our e-brochures and pre-tour documentation are now sent electronically, minimising the need for printed materials and helping us reduce our environmental footprint.

SUSTAINABLE CUISINE

We are proud to support local communities by sourcing our coffee beans and other ingredients from local producers. Our food is carefully selected from local markets at the destinations we visit, ensuring fresh, authentic, and sustainable dining experiences.

REDUCING FOOD WASTE

We are committed to keeping food waste to an absolute minimum. Rather than the traditional buffet option, we serve an a la carte menu at lunch and dinner, meaning our F&B team can procure the required amount of ingredients, without excess.

PRESERVING AND PROMOTING HERITAGE

Giving back to the communities we visit is a core part of our mission. By partnering with local artisans, communities, and businesses, we not only enhance your travel experience but also contribute to the prosperity and preservation of these vibrant cultures.

OPTIONAL LINEN CHANGES

We encourage guests to opt out of daily linen changes, helping us reduce the amount of laundry we process. This small choice plays a big role in conserving water and energy.

At Golden Eagle Luxury Trains, sustainability isn’t just a policy; it’s a commitment to preserving the beauty and culture of the places we travel through, for today’s guests and future generations. Thank you for choosing to journey with us on a path toward a more sustainable future.
