Travindy was co-founded by Anula Galewska and Jeremy Smith in 2012, later joined by Xavier Font. It initially operated as a volunteer-run sustainable tourism news platform communicating essential tourism news and promoting responsible travel. With Prof. Font on board, Travindy started offering consulting services focused on sustainability communications and marketing.

In recent years, Travindy extended its offer to a range of advisory and training services to help tour operators, hotels and destination management organisations improve their sustainability performance and obtain sustainability certifications. Thanks to the Spanish-speaking team led by Ángela Rodríguez, in 2016 Travindy expanded its reach to the Spanish-speaking region and Travindy Espanol was launched as a stand-alone project.

In 2019, Jeremy Smith stepped down to focus on his environmental initiative, Tourism Declares Climate Emergency. Prof. Xavier Font keeps making the world of tourism better through his work at the University of Surrey.

Travindy is now managed by a small team led by Anula Galewska and supported by a number of affiliated sustainability consultants.
