Sponsored news – Traveling is for some a way of living, a calling. It’s all about those who travel more than tourists, who prefer luxury lodging and who enjoy hiking, horseback riding, or kayaking as a mode for transportation.
These are adventurers who realize the importance in exploring the world responsibly to reduce our carbon footprint.
Ecotourism means responsible travel to natural places that not only conserves the environment, but also enhances the well-being and wellbeing of the local population.
Joan Embery, a goodwill ambassador for San Diego Zoo’s Zoological Society knows the incomparable value of this type travel.
“The tourism market, if properly managed, can have a huge positive effect by educating people who become ambassadors when they come home and talk about their experiences,”Embery. “For many countries, it’s a major source of revenue, giving value to the resources we want to protect.”
The travel guru is the best way to experience the world from a new perspective. International Expeditions (IE) can help. This Alabama-based company has extensive experience in managing travel plans from Amazon to Zambia. IE can help you make your trip a smooth one, regardless of whether your upscale adventure involves penguins, birds, reptiles, or lemurs.
Travelers are able to learn local lore, taste local food, and experience unique cultural practices with the help of IE. According to Matador Network, the end result is economic growth that is balanced with authentic and respectful interactions between locals as well as visitors.
Embery says that eco-traveling is possible only if you have a respect for and reverence for the culture of another country. She continues to travel halfway across the globe to places like East Africa.
“I always enjoy taking people there [to East Africa] because you can’t be disappointed. There is always something to see — the sights, the sounds, the sunsets, the landscape and just the expanse of it. It’s mind-boggling to realize that still exists,”She said.
