Environmental concerns have made eco-tours a high priority for many travelers. There's not one among us who doesn't appreciate nature and want to keep our entire environment healthy and vibrant. Ecotourism is the new way to travel while at the same time protecting our Earth.

Being aware of the impact your travel has on the environment and on locals in the area where you stay or travel is just the start. You'll want to locate a reputable company who also has this awareness. Find a destination that is less sought after by others. Find out how "green" the lodging owner or tour operator is. Do they employ locals? Will the local economy benefit from the operation of the company?

Camping, hiking, and backpacking can be highly eco-friendly activities, as well as canoing, and kayaking - these types of activities afford the opportunity to enjoy a vacation in nature while being careful not to disturb the natural beauty. Of course, it goes without saying, don't litter!
