Sustainable  / Eco Tourism

Ecotourism requires a holistic approach in order to provide tourists with experiences that bring them close to the natural surroundings they choose to visit, including the people who inhabit them. There are many considerations when planning, designing, building and operating an ecotourism resort that differ from a standard accommodation.  Compliance with a wide range of requirements is necessary for inclusion in the important ecotourism associations as well as to satisfy green-minded guests.  The ecolodge should cause minimal or no damage to the local environment; local communities should be supported; waste should be recycled, energy usage should be minimal, less pollution etc.

The principles of sustainability: balancing environmental, economic, and social aspects are the main pillars of eco / sustainable tourism project.

• Minimizing forest destruction and supporting conservation of nature both generally and in the local area
