Throwback Tours business code of conduct

As licence professional tour operators in Quebec offering services to our community, THROWBACK TOURS sets high ethical standards for business conduct. We also apply these standards to ourselves, Volunteers and our Business Partners.

The THROWBACK TOURS Business Code of Ethics (the “Code”) helps ensure that THROWBACK TOURS Business Partners etc share our commitment to an ethical senior center.
