MICROHOSPITALITY BY THIERRY TEYSSIER

Discreetly exclusive, extraordinarily authentic, exceptionally unique.

Visionary hotelier Thierry Teyssier has revolutionized travel for over two decades, offering a captivating alternative to conventional trips. Today, 700’000 heures Impact emphasizes regenerative travel through genuine encounters and unparalleled comfort. Each journey Thierry crafts is rich in detail, authenticity, and extraordinary accommodations, from nomadic tented camps in the Sahara to micro-lodges in the Amazon to private homes in Mexico.

We are different in every way imaginable.

TRAVEL REDEFINED

Every exploration is fundamentally unique, designed to connect you deeply with yourself and with your destination, through authentic and immersive experiences. With 700'000 heures Impact, your journey will not only leave you awe-inspired and speechless, but will connect you at a deeper level with local communities and nature.

REGENERATIVE TRAVEL AND IMPACT

Deeper travel: regeneration and shared wisdom.

Regenerative travel is a radically different way of exploring the world, going far beyond experiencing destinations and mitigating negative impact. 700'000 heures Impact designs, catalyzes and supports a holistic approach to regeneration that empowers local communities on an autonomous path of development, anchored in cultural heritage and in harmony with nature. Our philosophy emphasizes intentional hospitality, prioritizing the well-being of people and the planet.
