“Responsible tourism is growing. Large international organisations like the UN have declared 2017 the Year of Sustainable Tourism for Development (#IY2017), so if you’re looking to take a life changing trip somewhere and want to have a positive social and environmental impact, now is the time to leap into action. But how? With so many tourism operators out there, doing your research is key to ensuring that you work with a responsible operator, AND you’ve got to decide where to go! This can often be a stressful process and takes time. Fortunately, Earth Changers have done the hard work for us”
