What
is Ecotourism?
The International Ecotourism Society defines ecotourism as, “responsible
travel to natural areas that conserves the environment and sustains the
well-being of local people.”
Project AWARE created the Go ECO campaign to educate tourists about how they can travel responsibly and inspire tour operators to implement best business practices in their local area. By making informed choices, you can support operators committed to environmentally responsible business practices. And, by following a few basic guidelines, you can minimize your effect on the ecosystems while contributing to environmental, economic and cultural conservation.
