Some thoughts from our team
A bit of history
TerraVerde was born during 2020, the most infamous year for tourism! As friends and colleagues since 1985, Chris and Patrick share common values. Foremost of these is the passionate commitment to tourism’s recovery in a robust and sustainable fashion.
We strongly recognise the values of trust and partnership that underpin our sector and the transformation caused by digitisation and consolidation over the last 30 years, giving us an intuitive understanding of which solutions can be successful.

We work with travel companies (large and small), to create tourism focused, environmental action plans, with clear and achievable milestones.
