  • Abstract:
  • Responsible travel can defined as all types of travel that causes no harm to the environment and local culture. India is one of the prominent Ecotourism destinations with many natural attractions, national parks, wildlife sanctuaries, mountains, forests, deserts, mangroves etc….. Travelling responsibly is the need of the hour since protecting and preserving our environment and culture only can sustain tourism activities in our country. Tourists need to be sensitized at the very first place regarding the places they visit and the norms they need to conform to. Being a responsible traveler means ensuring that your travel impacts are very low and positive and respect the local culture. It means behaving more responsibly towards the place you are in, giving respect and care towards the environment and the culture you are exposed to. Tourists need to make more sustainable choices regarding the places they visit and the activities they engage in. Travel is one of the most beautiful experiences. Responsible travel is bringing about a balance between the conservation of environment and visitor experiences. Tourists nowadays are behaving more irresponsibly without any concern or care for their natural surroundings. There should awareness programmes which should be initiated at the school level so that students can be moulded as more responsible citizens of the country.
