We wanted a name that communicated a number of things: groups, adventure, trekking and belonging.
After a LOT of head-scratching, we came up with Tribal Tracks. "Tribe" denotes a group, but also conveys the sense of belonging and long-lasting friendship that people experience on our trips, and that is so important to us. "Tracks" is for adventure, challenge, for boots on the ground, and seeking out the path less travelled.
Co-founders Charlie and Gaynor first met in 2015 when their sons played rugby together.
At the time, Charlie was working in schools overseas expedition management, having previously been an officer in the British Army. Gaynor was a lawyer, working in international commercial litigation. Both Charlie and Gaynor had always dreamed of having their own travel business, but meeting each other gave them the confidence to make that dream a reality.
Co Founders, Charlie and Gaynor registered Tribal Tracks in November 2017.
There was then a period that involved a lot of deep breaths as they took the plunge and left two secure jobs. However, strong in their belief in what we were doing and creating, we built the website, created the Tribal Tracks logo, and using our extensive prior experience, began developing our product.
The first Tribal Tracks trip was an ascent of Mount Toubkal in Morocco, by supporters of a fantastic cancer charity. You know who you are! This charity remains our client and to this day, we are grateful for the support they gave us in the early days, as we continue to develop new and exciting adventures for them.
Fast-forward to 2025. Gaynor has retired from Tribal Tracks but is still a huge supporter and friend. We have amazing relationships with many charity clients who use Tribal Tracks adventures as (very successful) fundraising events. We've also seen a surge in women-only groups travelling with us, as well as groups of friends and colleagues with a sense of adventure.
We are excited to see what the future holds.
Let’s get you on the right track!
