EDGE TRAVEL - THE RESPONSIBLE CHOICE
Responsible tourism is about making an ethical choice when it comes to travel. It is about choosing a travel option that considers the people, the environment and the resources of the proposed travel destination.
Internationally, there is a growing awareness around environmental and social issues and consumers are saying: I want a fantastic holiday in a beautiful destination, but I want to know that the money I am spending will have a positive impact on the people and the destination that I am visiting.
Tourism is the largest and the fastest developing industry in the world. Almost a billion tourists travel to other countries annually. The number of people involved in the global tourism industry runs into billions. The approach up until now has been about increasing tourist numbers to a destination. This has often been to the detriment of the destinations that are visited. Fortunately, the global tourism industry is experiencing a positive shift towards a more sustainable model or responsible approach to the way we do business.
There is growing acceptance of the fact that if we behave responsibly as an industry, we can positively effect and preserve the culture, the people and the places that we visit.
Edge Travel understands and has embraced the principles of responsible tourism. Amongst other initiatives, we have developed an extensive range of high-end travel products and services that are dedicated to the advancement of responsible tourism practice in Southern Africa.
