We are committed to the environment and work towards sustainable tourism.
That is why we are taking measures in this direction. More information
At Abora Expeditions, we travel with purpose. We work to regenerate the place we love and protect its essence. By joining Abora, you will not only discover the beauty and uniqueness of a territory declared a Biosphere Reserve, but we will also reveal to you, in an intimate and respectful way, the communities that inhabit it.
Here you are part of its living history: you participate in its traditions, understand its deep relationship with nature, and discover how they protect this fragile and extraordinary territory.
Traveling with Abora is not just about getting from one place to another. It's about belonging.
- Our commitment:
1. Local wealth that lasts.
Explore at a leisurely pace, connecting with the territory. Accommodations, producers, artisans, and small families who sustain life on the island are your guides. The economy we generate stays here, strengthening those who care for the legacy day after day.
2. Conservation, science, and knowledge within the traveler's reach.
Collaborate on conservation projects led by scientists, we accompany you to understand the uniqueness of the territory and we allocate part of each expedition to initiatives such as the protection of endemic species, the restoration of traditional trails, or citizen science programs alongside local research centers.
3. Regenerative tourism with a real and measurable positive impact.
We believe in our philosophy and measure our results. Be part of experiences that leave roots instead of footprints. Each expedition is designed to teach you to discover and love the territory because, as Jacques Cousteau said, "you only protect what you love, and you only love what you know."

Recap of experiences and transfer to the airport. The expedition ends here, but the way you see the world will have changed.
La Palma is a living territory, shaped by volcanoes, clouds that move like inland seas, and skies that change every moment.
We want you to feel La Palma, so some activities and locations may be adapted on a day-to-day basis depending on the light, the weather, and the rhythm of the island.
At Abora Expeditions, we believe in traveling with purpose and with nature, not against it. We read the territory in real time and map out the best possible route at any given moment to ensure a safe, authentic, and deeply connected experience with La Palma.
We invite you to explore and embrace the unexpected as part of the magic of the journey with our experts. Because for us, every change is an opportunity to see, feel, and understand the island in a more intimate way.
