The next chapter of
travel management.
City of Choice Travel has sustainability expertise within the business, supported by professional ESG, sustainability and climate advisory experience. We help organisations understand the environmental impact of business travel and identify practical ways to integrate sustainability into their travel programmes.
From sustainable travel strategies and policies to business-travel emissions assessments, carbon reporting, lower-impact travel choices and supplier considerations, our approach is designed to be practical, measurable and aligned with business needs.
And importantly, it’s designed for here. South African and African organisations operate within their own realities. Infrastructure, connectivity, safety, access and business priorities all influence how people travel. Our approach takes these factors into account, helping organisations identify sustainability opportunities that are relevant to their people, their operations and their context.

Two areas of
expertise. One more considered approach.
Travel management and sustainability are increasingly interconnected. Bringing these areas of expertise together allows us to look at business travel more holistically, helping organisations understand their impact, identify opportunities and put practical measures in place.
Sustainable Travel Strategies & Policies
Build a travel programme that considers sustainability alongside business requirements. We can help organisations develop or strengthen travel strategies and policies, considering how people travel, which suppliers they use and where lower-impact choices may be possible.
Business-Travel Emissions
Establish a clearer picture of your travel-related emissions. We can support organisations with assessing business-travel activity and developing an emissions baseline, creating a measurable starting point for future sustainability targets and action.
Carbon
Reporting
Turn travel data into useful sustainability information. We can support carbon reporting for business travel, helping decision-makers understand the environmental impact associated with their travel programmes and track progress over time.
Lower-Impact Travel Choices
Identify practical opportunities to reduce the impact of business travel without losing sight of operational requirements. This can include considering travel modes, routing, accommodation and other choices within the realities of each organisation.
Supplier & Traveller Considerations
Sustainability extends beyond the booking itself. We can help organisations consider supplier practices and traveller behaviour as part of a more responsible travel programme, identifying opportunities to encourage more informed and lower-impact choices.
Targets & Implementation
Move from measurement to action. We can support organisations in setting relevant sustainability targets and developing practical steps to implement them within their travel programmes.
Practical, sustainable
& proudly South African.
Sustainability needs to work in the real world. Our approach is grounded in the realities of South African and African organisations, where infrastructure, connectivity, safety, access and business requirements all influence how people travel.
Rather than applying a one-size-fits-all model, we help organisations identify measurable, practical opportunities that work for their people, their operations and their context.
The right expertise, when you need it.
You don’t need to become a sustainability expert overnight. We bring together travel management and sustainability expertise to help you understand your current position, identify relevant opportunities and develop an approach that works for your organisation.
