Sustainable Tourism Defined

Bill Wright defines Ecotourism
also called Sustainable Tourism

“Assisting visitors to see and experience relatively undisturbed, natural or rural areas.
Guiding these guests in as low-impact a fashion as possible, and
utilizing small locally owned businesses are some of ecotourism’s goals.
I believe eco-tourism purpose is:

 -to educate the traveler about the wildlife in that area

-to educate the traveler about the land itself; the natural history of the area

-to provide funds directly to the people who live in that community or area

-to expose the visitor to the lifestyle of the people in that community or area

-to foster respect for different cultures and/or lifestyles”
