Sustainable Tourism
“Sustainable tourism actively fosters appreciation and stewardship of the natural, cultural and historic resources by local residence, the tourism industry, government and visitors.
It is tourism which can be sustained over the long term because it results in a net benefit for the social, economic, natural and cultural landscape in which it takes place.”
