Say Hueque Sustainability Actions

Founded on responsible travel

In 1999, at just 24 years old, Rafa Mayer founded Say Hueque, a tailor-made travel company operating across Argentina, Chile, and South America. Long before “responsible travel” became an industry buzzword, Mayer was building a business model around it.

Certified B Corp

Nearly 25 years later, Say Hueque is a certified B Corp.

Planted native trees in Patagonia

Since 2021, the project has planted nearly 200,000 native trees. For every traveler the company takes through Patagonia, 10 native trees are planted in the region as a Regeneration Fee built directly into the cost of the trip.

Worked with local restoration NGO

In partnership with ReforestArg, a local NGO specializing in ecosystem restoration, Say Hueque plants native Coihue and Cypress trees in areas devastated by wildfires near Cholila, in Argentine Patagonia.

Created Forest Restorer jobs

The company’s “Forest Restorer” program provides paid ecological restoration work and formal training to people in the communities most directly impacted by the fires.

Uses local travel suppliers

Since its founding, the company has deliberately chosen to work with small, family-run operators such as boutique lodges, local guides, and independent accommodations rather than international chains.

Runs plastic-free trips

That shows up in the details: plastic-free trips, partnerships with family-run eco-lodges, community-based tourism initiatives in places like Isla Maciel, and educational programs with local nonprofits in Buenos Aires.
