La Route des Sens. Responsible travel. Exploring Ecotourism. Taking a trip? Consult our popular World Travel Directory. The term really doesn't matter -- ecotourism, responsible tourism, sustainable tourism -- whatever policymakers call it, this will never be THE solution for any particular desired outcome.
Tourism in all its guises - from slow adventures to local travel - works in tandem with other cultural and economic forces and serve as a catalyst which supports sustainable practices, including greening trade and tourism, conserving wildlife and creating mutually beneficial relationships among locals and visitors. The guide and the entire Planeta.com website ask the big 'what if' question -- what if we truly helped one another? Specifics may vary, but the big picture doesn't -- responsible tourism is preferable to irresponsible tourism, ecotourism is preferable to un-ecotourism, local tourism is better than tourism that ignores the locals and sustainable tourism is, well, you get the idea.
